"Attempt to listen to these songs with ears unburdened by the
clichés of would-be Topanga shamans you may have encountered.
Even if your adolescence was spent locked inside a bedroom with
the Morrison-as-Young-Lion poster taped to the wall, you can still
hear new things upon close inspection: the little bossa nova break
inspired by Stan Getz and João Gilberto that percolates between
the verses on “Break On Through”; Densmore’s jazzy octopus
drums as the track detonates into the chorus; the serrated razor
blades embedded in Morrison’s larynx when he lights into that
growl (imagine a 22-year-old able to sing like that today); the
breakdown at the end, built for delirious freeway sprints in
the dead hours of the a.m. To hear it in 1967 must’ve offered a
sense of possibility, the pristine ambition that the world could
be remade in a more righteous and equitable way. The Doors
now occupy a similar space as one of their heroes, Kerouac, and
his hero, Dean Moriarty—Western kinsmen of the sun.
For many of their listeners, they serve as a gateway to a world
of influences, from French surrealism to the sweltering Chicago
blues, from the modal genius of John Coltrane to German
expressionism, from Sophocles to William Blake.
They exist to get you to the starting point, and wherever the
path diverges from there is on you."

 

Jeff Weiss is the founder of the last rap blog, POW, and the
label POW Recordings. He co-edits theLAnd Magazine, as well
as regularly freelancing for The Washington Post, Los Angeles
Magazine and The Ringer.
