"Bela Lugosi's Dead" was the one record that ended a decade (the 1970s) and started another (the 1980s).
"Bela Lugosi's Dead" was the only recording I know that has the ability of cracks and noise caused by surface damage to become part of the composition, as such allowing the composition to "grow" every time you listen to it.
"Bela Lugosi's Dead" was the first composition that was tailor-made for the twelve inch format; neither can it be edited down reasonably to a single, nor can it fit between other songs into an album.

How much time does it take to enjoy "Bela Lugosi's Dead"? Ten minutes. That is 13 seconds to find the record, grab it, unsleeve it and put a needle to it; 9:37 for the composition itself and 10 seconds to complete the run-out groove and/or the return of the stylus.
How much time did the band need to compose "Bela Lugosi's Dead"? Ten minutes.
How much time of your life do you need to change the way you base your opinion about music forever? Ten minutes.

Sometimes, changing your life is only a matter of ten minutes.
