shortest songs on 45

[chas_kit]

Finding this 45 had me curious as to what '60s music 45 that's not a novelty has the shortest run time. There are a lot in the 1:30 range, but this is only 1:20! The Rain Kings' Everyone Out of the Pool is less than a minute, but that's on a 45 EP, so I'm not sure that counts.

Revellion at 1:14

for pure garage sounds, maybe the French Church:

or the Young Men - despite the label saying 2:33 it's only a minute and a half:

More short garage:

Beep Beep & the Roadrunners at about 1:30:

Also the Misfits on JCP, Can't You See at just over 1:30.

Beethoven 4 "Don't call on me" is 1:29 on the label. Don't own it and do not have Quagmire #1 handy, so it might be even shorter?

Seem to recall I have one that's less than 1:20 but can't for the life of me remember which one...

 

[Monster Mike]

The flip of Me And Them Guys on GRE-TLE clocks in at just over a minute, I believe...

The B-Side of the Sites N' Sounds 45 comes in at 1:33 and with quite a short title as well: "T".

J. K. & Co. - Break of Dawn, which runs about 0:32

Pretty sure that the Mamas & The Papas put "Once Was A Time I Thought" on a B-Side, and that runs just a few seconds under 1:00.

Napalm Death has everyone beat, though.

Napalm Death has everyone beat, though.

Aren't they in the Guinness book of world records for that?
