THE DOORS
RAY MANZAREK, ROBBY KRIEGER, JIM MORRISON, JOHN DENSMORE
The Doors, one of the most influential and controversial rock bands of the 1960s,
were formed in Los Angeles in 1965 by UCLA film students Ray Manzarek, keyboards,
and Jim Morrison, vocals; with drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger.
The group never added a bass player, and their sound was dominated by Manzarek's electric organ work
and Morrison's deep, sonorous voice, with which he sang and intoned his highly poetic lyrics

Many of the songs on Strange Days had been written around the same time as the ones
that appeared on The Doors, and with hindsight one has the sense that the best of the batch
had already been cherry picked for the debut album. For that reason, the band's second effort
isn't as consistently stunning as their debut, though overall it's a very successful continuation
of the themes of their classic album. Besides the hit "Strange Days," highlights included
the funky "Moonlight Drive," the eerie "You're Lost Little Girl,"
and the jerkily rhythmic "Love Me Two Times,"
which gave the band a small chart single. "My Eyes Have Seen You" and
"I Can't See Your Face in My Mind" are minor but pleasing entries in the group's repertoire
that share a subdued Eastern psychedelic air. The 11-minute "When the Music's Over"
would often be featured as a live showstopper...(AllMusic)
