J. Young and the Fabulous Dobbs on Naj Ma, 1.42, so I paid almost $11/second, ouch!

Not the shortest but quite short is the Trey J's "I Found it All In You" at around 1:50, great track but wish it went a little longer.

THE JELLYBEANS "You Don't Mean Me No Good" clocks in at 1.45 - pretty short...

night owl always seemed way too short for me,maybe i just liked it so much i wanted it to carry on....................................bit of an abrupt ending too

THE JELLYBEANS "You Don't Mean Me No Good" clocks in at 1.45 - pretty short...

Chris L

Here's another short one @ 1:53

Little John "Heart Breakin' Time" on Martay

Carl Henderson - I´m Schemin - Renfro

All the best,

Albie

Micky Wilson - Gee Baby (You're Driving Me Crazy) 1:34

John & The Wierdest - No Time (To Find The Next Record...) 1:43

Not a major Northern item but I'll cite Taurus & Leo - Goin' Out The World Backwards (Velvet Sound). Label says it's 1m 27s.

Shortest track?....(but is it Northern)

ANN PERRY - THATS THE WAY HE IS.. If i remember correctly, and im not hunting through my box to find it, ha. Then again any record is to bloody short , if you,re having a good dance to it... mart.

johnny baker - operator, operator part 2 - time says 1.48 but is actually 1.19!

King Tutt - You've Got Me Hung Up 12"

just listened to about 20 seconds on another thread and had to turn it off

20 secs ...well lasted buddie anything that size in my house has a minimum of 10 tracks onit!!!!!!!!!

Not the shortest but Candi Staton - Now You Gotta The Upper Hand is short and one of my fav's

'Trey J's "I Found it All In You" at around 1:50,'

I think this is actually 1:37, could definitely do with another minute added to it! Brilliant all the same.....

JP Robinson on Blue Candle ends too soon as well, always want him to come back in after the flute playout.......

Teddy Vann Orch - Coloured Man gotta be close on the shortest!

Teddy Vann Orch - Coloured Man gotta be close on the shortest!

Yeah, that one weighs in at a mighty 1:44.

What about that record james trouble took off the decks at the Britt---lasted about 35 seconds

How about Gloria Jones "Come go with me" at 1:53.

And a track that I,ve used to finish off several soul tapes (remember them?)

Big Maybelle "If I had you".

Not only a great song but only 1:51 .

Ideal for that last bit of tape that always seemed to be left when compiling a tape.

Just one more to add. Another Big Maybelle track "Quittin, time" 1:57

Not the shortest but got another moment Billy & the Essentials ( thanks for tip M Freeman ) - My way of sayin

on Smash clocks in on 1.51 . had hopes for Satisfactions on Smash as well but was way over 2 min....
