    I'm 71 years old and I have always loved the Doors, but it wasn't until I got a smart phone that I realized how much they did in just 4 or 5 years.

      Good for you. Please don't take the Oliver Stone's movie Version seriously, he got it wrong in all the important ways. When i did not know that, i thought that was most all true. I've been a fan since 91, when I was 12 years old. Best band from that era.

    While Jim was the front man, the Doors never had a weak album, imo. But I’m very biased considering they’re my favorite American band ever and always will be. As us fans will say, they were undoubtedly ahead of their time. There will never be another combination of players like this. They were uniquely talented musically, but not enough could ever be said about the depth of Jim’s lyrics. And if there were ever a song to convert someone into an avid fan, it would have to be “ The End. “

    “You could tell that they jammed a lot and the songs came out of the jam.”
    That’s exactly how I’ve always envisioned the Doors creative process. That was the way to create back then. Just play and play for hours while gelling as musicians, developing your own sound, and creating original ideas. It’s just my opinion, but, I don’t think many bands today are willing to work that hard anymore. They all want overnight success using Pro-Tools and social media. It’s just not the same.

    In the 60's We had the Beach Boys, over in England they had the Beatles, over seas had bands coming into their own, like the Stones,etc. But no one , no where, could come close to The Doors !!! Bands were widening their psychological bandwidth, mostly with drugs, but the Lizard King was already way ahead of them!!!

    Arguably, Robby Krieger’s main influence as a guitar player was flamenco. Already one of the “experts” on here is describing his sound as jazz, and blues - but no flamenco! He also was in a jug band! I’m not that far in, but is it worth it to keep listening to these guys?

    It is an exceptional achievement when a band ( Like The Doors ) that broke up over 50 years ago is still selling millions of albums/ CD's a year. As a working, touring, album making band the Doors weren't around for to long only around 5 years The Doors where the last band all the critics thought would still be selling millions of albums a year over 50 years later.

    Their first album still stands up. It's dark, brooding, laden with LSD references, and wholly their own. After that they seemed to get increasingly self-conscious, trying to alter their sound to suit fans, critics, and not themselves L.A. Woman saw them produce themselves and it's a equally great but Morrison's voice is shot and the entire thing is pervaded by a kind of psychic exhaustion.

      He was not shown as a psycho in the movie, the whole dam first half of the movie is all about Jim and his writing and how there is no band without Jim. My god the part where they take peyote and go to the desert and then it goes to them performing the end is amazing and shows how different they were and they had everyones attention. But it had to show the rock live fast lifestyle and the alcoholism, what was Oliver supposed to do just completely ignore Jimbo and the crazy shit he was doing? All of the stuff in the movie did happen, go watch when you're strange with Johnny Depp narrating, Jim was on another level and he did break through

    • @chadczternastek
      @chadczternastek Рік тому +3

      Not a word? They mentioned quite a few times, that Jim would add his poetry and improvise on jams, developing songs.
      Was that what you were referring to? I am not busting on you, just trying to see if I got you right.
      I wish this was longer. This was very well done. Feeling the pulse of the music thru Disc Jockeys. Radio has shifted thru the years, where that whole radio grapevine is pretty much gone. Like now it's just listening to what you want. Not listening to the radio with a open mind. I used to love DJ's, do their personality thing and push music.
