Although Skynyrd's Freebird seems longer , not sure if the studio version racks up to 9 mins.

Comfortably Numb (Live in Pompeii) is a good shout too.

Pink Floyd - Dogs from Animals is also a good listen. Also think Pigs and sheep are over 10 mins on the album too.

Always loved a long song, and many are mentioned here.

Bemused that no one has mentioned Springsteen’s Jungleland yet... it’s like a symphony.

Given that Telegraph Road was posted almost immediately, I’ll add Velveteen: https://youtu.be/WFgZWnyqCaY

Maggot Brain - Funkadelic

Hard to believe this came out in 1971.

Votes here, also, for Again by Archive and Supper's Ready

Shine On by PF will always be on a pedestal, for me. Amazing that such a great tune was born from just a four note motif (Bb/F/G/E).

Always loved Grendel

The relentless energy of Juanita / To Dream of Love by Underworld never fails to get hairs on end

Being a Prog Head I think most of the tracks I have are well over 9 minutes biggrin
So many great tracks, but as already stated - Supper’s Ready. For the first few hundred times I could hear new things every time I played it. I could never get fed up of hearing it and it is something that is as exciting to me now as it was when I first heard it being played in City Records in Cardiff back in October ‘72. Actually they were playing Watcher of the Skies, so I asked to hear the full album in one of the listening booths. To say it blew my mind is an understatement.
Of similar ilk is Thick as a Brick and Misplaced Childhood.
