earliest long rock/pop tracks/suites

A few stipulations:


Lets keep it to the 60's. (Not that there was much in the 50's, just that I don't like 50s music.)

Anything roughly over 6 minutes long, okay? (So I'd accept "Sad-Eyed Lady of the lowLands but not "Like A Rolling Stone" or, say, "McArthur Park"

If you can be bothered, please let us know the year/month of release.
