Technically, one would say that the 500 locked grooves records was the longest. That would be prickish though. I've a feeling there is a definite cap on how much you can fit on one side though, as fidelity is lost entirely past a certain point, no matter what the signal. You'll probably find that the longest record is probably one with a very small dynamic range - I'll put ten pounds down to say that it won't be a reggae, drum n' bass or bleedcore techno record.
In fact, I'm pretty sure the fidelity problem was one of the reasons Young rarely issued records in the days of vinyl.
