2009, just saw
I just added the date, so you were right to wonder.
It would be a different list now (it always was somewhat random, done in a hurry I should imagine, possibly on a train) not so much because of post-2009 additions (there would not be many) but because of reconfiguring of the past. And I've taken 'song' literally here - there isn't much in the way of all-instrumental music, or extended pieces, included in the tally.
That's only 48 tracks!
Great list.
Have you ever heard the full version of The Stooges' "Ann," now a bonus track on a recent CD reissue? It would have been great if it had been released unedited in 1969 (the album was originally supposed to contain just five long tracks, but the record company balked).

You are right - I lost count! I must have done it in a hurry! Probably put too many and tried to eliminate to get down to 50 and overshot.
That means I could add couple.... that seems questionable but tempted to
I think I did hear it at some point. Definitely a track that could be stretched out into a "We Will Fall" type droning and intoning sort of soundscape
Do it!
