I never loved them, thought they were important enough to listen to a little but probably never sat thru an entire album. I like them a little more these days. It's clear (to me) that the White Stripes owe a lot to the Doors, this album especially. I think.

Hmm, Amy Winehouse, Jim Morrison, who's next? Curt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix oder Janis Joplin? Could be the 27 Club playlist ;-)

Same thing. I'm pretty sure it was just a high school phase.

I know what you mean. Maybe its time to make an appointment with the urologist. Now

Pretty sure Jay-Z could have pulled it off if "Five to One" had never been recorded.
Not the best Doors song by a long shot. It sounds dated tonight, but the album is almost 45 years old. The Doors have been (somewhat) relevant a lot longer than most of their contemporaries and I doubt that Jay-Z's "The Takeover" will last anywhere near as long as most of the stuff Jim and the boys put out.
No one sounds new and dangerous forever. Not even Beethoven.

Interesting. I would say that this is their finest. Soft Parade is difficult to listen to. The driving bass penetrates my soul on this one.

I shot at "The Greatest Generation" Since the early 90's when Jim's fantasy became reality- We screwed everything up more then they ever did.

Thanks for playing the Doors. What a great and original band.

I tried, I really did, back in my Devotion to Hippiedom Days. But I never ever liked the Doors. They strike me as raspy and whiney - amplified kvetching. It sounds like they are singing the same note over and over again. A misery to hear.

I'd amend that statement. The lead singer of VAST (Jon Crosby) sounds like Jim Morrison. There's about a 40 year stretch in age there.

Dude must have been able to transport everybody in the audience, including (my opinion) his own bandmates. Never got a chance to see the Doors, in any incarnation. My bad.

There's really not that much - they only recorded about 65 tunes, many of which are either terribly dated (like this one) or painfully over-played.

You're not alone, which says a lot for the Oasis song for me, because I'm not an Oasis fan.
