Description
The Doors is the debut album by American rock band The Doors, recorded in August 1966 and released in January 1967 (it is important to note that the album was available in various record stores in New York city as early as the third week in December, 1966 as part of a special promotion). It was originally released in different stereo and mono mixes, and features the breakthrough single "Light My Fire", extended with an instrumental section mostly omitted on the single release, and the lengthy song "The End" with its Oedipal spoken word section. The Doors credit the success of the album to being able to work the songs out night after night at the Whisky a Go Go and the London Fog nightclubs.
The album has become one of the most influential albums in the progression of psychedelic rock, and remains one of the most prolific and popular albums in all of popular music. As of April 2014, The Doors has sold 4 million units in the U.S and over 17 million units worldwide, becoming the Doors' most successful studio album in commercial sales. The Doors was ranked number 42 in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
Mono version
The mono LP (Elektra EKL-4007) has unique mixes that sound different from the stereo version (EKS-74004). The mono LP version was deleted not long after its original release and remained unavailable until 2010, when it was reissued as a limited edition 180 gram audiophile LP by Rhino Records. This version has never been officially released on compact disc; it is, however, available for purchase through digital media outlets such as iTunes and Amazon.
