That's more than three times longer than Flaming Lips and Nels Cline's 17 minute version from a few years ago.

This doesn't hold a candle to my long time favorite repeating riff, "Sweetest part of the leaf" which is a 74 minute track of a live band playing the riff for Black Sabbath's Sweet Leaf over and over. (It's great because you can hear the players swap out occasionally as they get tired.)

But She's So 60 Minutes of Heavy would be great to slip into a Beatles mixtape without warning. Or you know, if you want to break a lease or something.

original version is 80 minutes total running time.

What a ripoff!

I like this riff and I like that Flaming Lips version. This is relevant to my interests!

I tried to listen to the original Black Sabbath song but got bored about 45 seconds in. But I'm 48 minutes into this and still digging it. I dunno, I think I maybe listen to music wrong?

I'm partial to the Butthole Surfers' version of the riff - Sweat Loaf.

Weasel Walter is so fucking sick.

It's like back in the '70s when Devo would get on stage and play "Jocko Homo" for half an hour.
