This part 4:14 so underrated. Manzarek was a genius. His solos were telling a story along with Jim and this part sounding like rain dropping in tune. God I love The Doors.
Really well good for you let them give you the chills cause if I had been his better half I would of light his fire. This song is about all the dogs taking all the females to sex trafficked and the rest of the world committing suicide every thirty seconds for the rest of time. Thanks to Winston Churchill and Paul m. And Mr. Plant
I still listen to it I'm 58 yrs old .. there song's never dies keep rockin those Doors songs...we love you jim Morrison ..and the Doors .from big bubba 2024 ..
The only time I'm glad to be old is when I hear songs like this and realize I was pretty lucky to be a teenager when this was on the radio. This was The Music Soundtrack of my life! A 1955 er.

The first inhabitant of planet Earth to set foot on the soil of planet Mars will have the privilege of hearing Riders on the Storm with The Doors, something by the Beatles and everything by Bach, Beethoven and Mozart.
Oh yes he is, esp. by those of that time like me. His music was so different, and so original. I still listen to Doors anytime In have the opportunity. Dusty the 2nd
allpalix Ray's keyboarding is sublime, but as throughout the Doors' oeuvre, their talent and performances as an ensemble was unique to create musical nirvana.
He is one of the biggest stars of all time decades after his death he is still a house hold name all around the world it's a bit of a stretch to say he's underrated!😂
Great music, excellent guitar riffs and let's not forget the amazing vocals of the one and only Jim Morrison. Not enough adjectives to describe The Doors.
I seen the boys at Filmore West. It was the 70's. Had a few mushrooms. Jim sang songs, you would not imagine!!!. It's a sad trip, the man, ended it so early. Love ya, BROTHER ✌️
Besides their exceptionally beautiful instrumental soundscapes, mesmerizing, hypnotic keyboards. And the one thing that I really love about Morrison is that he didn't sing like the howling, growling, screaming rock singers of the era, as he was much more of a romantic crooner, like Sinatra, etc. - which really made them sound very unique and against the day's rock vocal conventions. Morrison had this warm, velvety, soothing voice. And like all great poets, he truly knew how to paint pictures with words, in such a way that the listener's mind is left to conjure up imagery per his own experiences and sensibilities. And this approach gives a different sense of the songs' meanings, from listen to listen and especially over a long period of time and further personal experiences. He had wondrous artistic gifts, but money, fame and alcohol were not his friends.
When the album came out, we bought it that day. After we heard Riders on a Storm, we knew it was a masterpiece. Not long after, Morrison was gone. What could have been. Nobody was in their space. My favorite group of all time. I’m 70 years old. We lived it
He had style and swag the ladies of course all the sex,drugs and rock n roll a poet,a scholar he was violent and then peace the opposite extremes the guy had all jammed packed in 5years if u seen the movie or the bio on Jim.I guess alot of big Artists in history have that the good the bad and ugly in mix i think to anything or everything in life is 50/50 down the middle and part of the 27club so many legends have fallen at that strange age
I was 13 years old in '71. We were on our way to Raccoon Valley TN, around midnight, when it started pouring rain with huge thunder bursts and lightning as we were approaching Louisville KY. The sound of the storm woke me from my sleep and as I peered over the back seat my sister reached over and turned up the volume in that 1965 Chevy Impala. It was awesome watching the thunder and lightning in sync with Jim.
Who cares how many people listen to this in whatever year ….. I listened to it then …. Today …… Tomorrow . So sad that Jim Morrison isn’t around today … or Janis or Mr. Hendrix …. “ If you ride hard …. You die fast “😢😢
The Doors might be the most under rated band ever. I started listening to them in the late nineties when I was sixteen. I am glad every year there is a new class of 16 year olds falling in love with the doors much like all the people before them year after year.
Sorry but the Doors is NOT "the most underrated band ever." They're still one of the most recognized and popular bands in the world. It's sad that some people using "underrated" to describe historically well-known bands. 😅
a lot of us are doing the exact same thing, surfing youtube for all the groovy songs that will never die, while half the world is paranoid out of there minds, its been raining in southern california for 5 days straight, thats when i like to hear the Doors,,,,,the Doors are the best for dark skies, gray and gloomy, it sets the mood.....
I remember hearing The Doors “Riders on the Storm” on Armed Forces Vietnam Radio in 1971. Riders on the Storm was introduced by the popular, super cool radio personality Wolfman Jack. He recorded his radio programs in the US which were then flown to Vietnam and broadcast on AFVN. I served in Northern I Corps; from Hue/Phu Bai, then Fire Bases Sally, Nancy, Barbara, Quang Tri, Dong Ha located along Route 1 to Mai Loc, Vandergrift, and Khe Sanh located along Route 9. In 1971, Fire Base Khe Sanh was a very reduced version of the famous 1968 Marine Combat Base. I took part in the reactivation of Khe Sanh during Operation Dewey Canyon II supporting Operation Lam Son 719, the South Vietnamese invasion of Laos. During the night of 23 March an NVA sapper attack killed 3 Americans, destroyed several aircraft and 2 ammunition dumps. This Fire Base was abandoned again in late 1971. When Riders on the Storm played on AFVN radio, I would sit quietly, brooding in the muddy, pest infested, sandbagged bunkers, and fighting positions stunned and overwhelmed by the beautiful dark lyrics. Although, there were different meanings for this song; my interpretation led me to realize, at 19, that I was a small insignificant person in the chaotic Vietnam war, world, and universe. I was surrounded by the war, frightened and alone. Help was not on the way so I had to hang on and survive the storm. Deft, sophisticated and ominous, the last verse, “The world on you depends, our life will never end” Riders on the Storm became a spiritual song. If I die, I won’t occupy this body but my spirit does not end. Over 50 years later, when I listen to Riders on the Storm, I’m still deeply moved by the music, and lyrics.
Really.....? Hey can you tell Mari that I am going to paramount city to talk to Patty ok, I don't know why Patty's picture is on the interment but, I will talk to her just to check what is going on ok.
@@sallydeppe8575weed wasn’t that good back then lol but they had real acid at least now we have super genetically modified weed and fentanyl is in every thing else
Manzarek is one if not the most underrated keyboard player and composer. Morrison was a front men out of this world because his style was in symbiose with the riffs. Without Manzarek there's no Doors or Morrison.

what do you mean "NO bass'
?
you listening thru a handphone speaker?
If you listen to them live he regularly howls and screams not so much on the actual records though
Especially alcohol.
Well he did have his moments where it was appropriate on some songs. He was poetic and amazing. I still am a Doors fan and am nearly 70.

The Doors might be the most under rated band ever. I started listening to them in the late nineties when I was sixteen. I am glad every year there is a new class of 16 year olds falling in love with the doors much like all the people before them year after year.
Sorry but the Doors is NOT "the most underrated band ever." They're still one of the most recognized and popular bands in the world. It's sad that some people using "underrated" to describe historically well-known bands. 😅
Get a life 🖕🏻

Still Riding the Storm
As good as a song could ever be. An absolute treasure.
I remember hearing The Doors “Riders on the Storm” on Armed Forces Vietnam Radio in 1971. Riders on the Storm was introduced by the popular, super cool radio personality Wolfman Jack. He recorded his radio programs in the US which were then flown to Vietnam and broadcast on AFVN.
I served in Northern I Corps; from Hue/Phu Bai, then Fire Bases Sally, Nancy, Barbara, Quang Tri, Dong Ha located along Route 1 to Mai Loc, Vandergrift, and Khe Sanh located along Route 9.
In 1971, Fire Base Khe Sanh was a very reduced version of the famous 1968 Marine Combat Base. I took part in the reactivation of Khe Sanh during Operation Dewey Canyon II supporting Operation Lam Son 719, the South Vietnamese invasion of Laos. During the night of 23 March an NVA sapper attack killed 3 Americans, destroyed several aircraft and 2 ammunition dumps. This Fire Base was abandoned again in late 1971.
When Riders on the Storm played on AFVN radio, I would sit quietly, brooding in the muddy, pest infested, sandbagged bunkers, and fighting positions stunned and overwhelmed by the beautiful dark lyrics. Although, there were different meanings for this song; my interpretation led me to realize, at 19, that I was a small insignificant person in the chaotic Vietnam war, world, and universe. I was surrounded by the war, frightened and alone. Help was not on the way so I had to hang on and survive the storm.
Deft, sophisticated and ominous, the last verse, “The world on you depends, our life will never end” Riders on the Storm became a spiritual song. If I die, I won’t occupy this body but my spirit does not end. Over 50 years later, when I listen to Riders on the Storm, I’m still deeply moved by the music, and lyrics.
The Doors is the best rock group ever❤❤❤❤❤

Will always love this song. It's so relaxing and peaceful to me. Plus it's such a coincidence Jim and I both were born in the same hospital.
Peaceful. Do you know the origins of this song? Anything but peaceful!
Absolutely magnificent 👌 👏
Don'forget ray Manzarek.What an awesome keyboard player.espacially on this one Riders on the storm.a masterpiece!
Indeed. A virtuoso.
Пацаны вы окей класно я вас вспомнил изсавдэпа
Manzarek is one if not the most underrated keyboard player and composer. Morrison was a front men out of this world because his style was in symbiose with the riffs.
Without Manzarek there's no Doors or Morrison.
