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

"WAITING FOR THE SUN"

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

 The Doors' 1967 albums had raised expectations so high that their third effort was greeted as a major 

disappointment. With a few exceptions, the material was much mellower, and while this yielded some 

fine melodic ballad rock in "Love Street," "Wintertime Love," "Summer's Almost Gone," and "Yes, the River Knows," 

there was no denying that the songwriting was not as impressive as it had been on the first two records. 

On the other hand, there were first-rate tunes such as the spooky "The Unknown Soldier," with antiwar 

lyrics as uncompromisingly forceful as anything the band did, and the compulsively riff-driven 

"Hello, I Love You," which nonetheless bore an uncomfortably close resemblance to the Kinks' 

"All Day and All of the Night." The flamenco guitar of "Spanish Caravan," the all-out weirdness of 

"Not to Touch the Earth" (which was a snippet of a legendary abandoned opus, "The Celebration of the Lizard"), 

and the menacing closer "Five to One" were also interesting. In fact, time's been 

fairly kind to the record, which is quite enjoyable and diverse, just not as powerful 

a full-length statement as the group's best albums...(AllMusic)
