The Doors – The Doors (Vinyl)
The Doors self titled first LP remains of the greatest debut albums by a rock group. What kind of band in 1966 would include a Kurt Weill/Bertolt Brecht song on their first album, or even start the first track with a bossa nova drum beat?
The Doors were unique, then and now, mashing up Indian ragas with blues, jazz, rock, esoteric poetry and a phenomenal songwriting ability. Jim Morrison was the ultimate LSD shaman rock star: dark, poetic and moody, Robbie Kreiger was a fearlessly inventive guitarist and Ray Manzarek's keyboards were influenced by jazz, blues and even cabaret, while he delivered basslines when playing live with his left hand.
