Hidden tracks?

One thumb up from northern Kentucky.  One thing I like about vinyl is that
some bands let you take a breath between tracks, as if..... (dare I say it?)
as if there were human beings actually creating music in a room instead of
sounds being extruded from a machine as "tracks".

Steely Dan and Riki Lee Jones come to mind.  There are some serious silences
on "Pirates" if I recall.

Also, check out the long silence just before "Chords" on Jon Anderson's
"Olias of Sunhollow".  In my smokin' days, I sometimes thought I was asleep
during that silence, until "Chords" came on and let me tell you, it WORKS as
a dreamscape.

Dunno if the silence survived the CD transfer business.  'guess I'm
satisfied with my 2 copies on LP.

Others?
