35 to 50 mins with 10 songs is just fine thank you.

Glad somebody else has said this! 9 to 11 songs on an album that lasted 30 to 40 mins was perfect, also albums pre-cd era told a story with the position of tracks on both the A-side and B-side, being crucial to the albums enjoyment. Unlike material from the CD era, which has albums lasting well over an hour, no A-side or B-side and tracks often chucked in any order and a whole load of boring extras chucked on the album for good measure as well.
This morning I`ve listened to H.P Lovecraft I at 32 mins and Black Sabbath 1 at 37 mins what bliss
