Anything better?

I was going to suggest O.D.O.O. by Fela Kuti, but that's only 31:54

You might want to check his section - he has some pretty long ones and they're awesome songs.

Looks like it's Circle in the Round (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=870493&selectedItemId=1374599).

Found one at just over 37 minutes: Blue Interlude (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=1447845&selectedItemId=1451472) by the Wynton Marsalis Septet.

Another Wynton Marsalis recording comes in at 54:43... In the Sweet Embrace of Life (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=876801&selectedItemId=876851). That's nearly an hour of music for 99 cents.
(Can you tell I'm bored today?)
EDIT - The 30-second preview of this song is difficult to hear... it's an upright bass solo.

Thanks Flowbee!!
Can anyone find anything over that? Perhaps an hour?

Here's one that's 4 hours long: link (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=52046&selectedItemId=52044)
Oh wait, that's seconds, not hours. Gee, 4 seconds for 99 cents. That's 820.75 times as much money per second as the Wynton Marsalis tune.
And on the same album as the 4-second tune, we have the 15-second tune (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=52046&selectedItemId=52042). They should play it twice when you listen to the 30-second preview!
I wonder how many people paid 99 cents to download these two (non-)musical masterpieces?

Fela Kuti's Beasts of No Nation album has two songs that are about 30 minutes each, so what you have is hour long album for $1.98.

The 4-second song I linked to above is the shortest tune I've come across. Is it the shortest in the store?
