Sugar minotts rub a dub went on for 12 minutes and 16 seconds (including dub of course), but is there a longer 12" record? Can anyone beat that? Let me know.

Thanks for the replies, so sugars rub a dub still holds the record for me as the longest uninterrupted full reggae tune made.
'vitamin c' i havent heard that french guyana tune, but i will check it out, for me if its a latin jazz reggae fusion it doesnt count!
Knowledges' 'Give i and i some work', ive only heard the 8 minute version, i think the 16 minute version is 'A' and 'B' sides combined, i stand to be corrected though.

I didn't mean to say 'case closed' actually. I thought I just point out the other thread as well. ;)
