13 is the first compilation album by The Doors. Released on 30 November 1970 by Elektra Records, it debuted at number 75 on December 19, 1970, peaked at Number 25 for two weeks (January 2 and January 9, 1971) and was off the charts after May 8. It spent a total of 21 weeks on the charts. The album has never been issued on CD because, while it was the only compilation released before lead singer Jim Morrison's death, it does not include songs from L.A. Woman, released in 1971.

'13' was a project instigated by Elektra Records, who wanted product from the band for the Christmas season, and the band reluctantly agreed.[6] Morrison even agreed to shave off his beard for the album cover's photo shoot, but the label opted for a younger photo of the singer, which they had also opted to do for the group's live album Absolutely Live, also released in 1970. Morrison's image is much larger than those of guitarist Robby Krieger, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, and drummer John Densmore. As Danny Sugarman observes in his band memoir No One Here Gets Out Alive, "Elektra obviously wanted the 'pretty' Jim Morrison...Although Ray, Robby, and John had become accustomed to the attention directed towards their lead singer, it upset Jim." The album's back cover features the band posing with what some think is a small bust of occultist Aleister Crowley (for more of Mr. Crowley in Rock music, see: Led Zeppelin III;  The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's  Lonely Hearts' Club Band;  Graham Bond's Holy Magick & We Put Our Magick On You; Ozzy Osbourne's 'Mr. Crowley' and dozens and dozens of other, subliminally placed "magick" references) .

Track listing Light my fire - People are strange - Back Door Man - Moonlight Drive - The crystal ship - Roadhouse Blues - Touch me - Love me two times - You're lost little girl - Hello I love you - Land Ho - Wild Child - The Unknown soldier. THE ONLY DOORS ALBUM WITH JIM MORRISON (AND ISSUED IN MORRISON’S LIFETIME)  NEVER ISSUED ON COMPACT DISC!!!
