As part of my recent Grateful Dead binge, I was amused to read, in Dennis McNally's tremendous bio, of how, when challenged about a song being too long for single format (cannot recall the tune), the Dead simply put a lower time on the label of the single sent to radio stations, one that was more in-line with single length, and the radios played it, never (apparently) realizing it was, in fact, longer.
The more I read about the Dead, the more I like 'em.
