Album notes
The Doors: Jim Morrison (vocals); Robby Krieger (guitar); Ray Manzarek (keyboards); John Densmore (drums).
Additional personnel: Larry Knechtel (bass).
Recorded at Sunset Sound Recorders, Hollywood, California.
The Doors: Jim Morrison (vocals); Robby Krieger (guitar); Ray Manzarek (piano, organ, bass); John Densmore (drums).
Recorded at Sunset Sound Recorders, Hollywood, California in September 1966. Originally released on Electra (74007).
Digitally remastered by Steve Hoffman.
The first Doors album was an important development in the evolution of rock, representing the dark underbelly of the '60s counterculture, the Jekyll to the Beatles/Beach Boys' Hyde. The Doors were the antithesis of windblown Californian pop. Dark, brooding and alienated, every element of the quartet's metier was unveiled on their debut album. In Jim Morrison they posessed one of rock's authoritative voices, while the group's dense instrumental prowess reflected his lyrical mystery. Highly literate, they wedded Oedipian tragedy with counter-culture nihlism and, in "Light My Fire", expressed exotic images previously unheard in pop. Howlin' Wolf, Brecht and Weill are acknowledged as musical reference points, a conflict between the physical and cerebral that give THE DOORS its undiluted tension. Or you can just enjoy it as a brilliant album that sucks you in as it breathes out the '60's.

Editorial reviews
4 stars out of 5 - ...Still their best album, a blurt of American Gothic teenybop, containing both the pop hit 'Light My Fire' and the mum-shagging epic 'The End'...
Q  (11/01/2000)

Included in Q Magazine's 100 Greatest Albums Ever
Q  (01/01/2003)

Ranked #25 in NME's list of the 'Greatest Albums Of All Time.'
NME  (10/02/1993)

5 stars out of 5 - Included in The Rolling Stone Hall Of Fame - ...A stoned, immaculate classic...
Rolling Stone  (05/01/2003)

4.5 stars out of 5 -- Surrealism and dark existentialism pervade The Doors' debut disc, a tour de force of brilliant pop songwriting.

DETAILS: Nice audiophile CD drom DCC. A limited edition, 24 karat gold-plated compact disc. Nice!

"Unquestionably one of the four or five great American rock albums of the '60s, the Doors first album is a total stunner in this gold CD version. I have heard this music in almost all formats, from the first Elektra pressings through open reel to the audiophile Mobile Fidelity LP to the various CD incarnations. In the late 70s, I also attended a press preview of "Apocalypse Now" at a 70mm six-track stereo installation in New York City where Coppola had personally checked the sound just before the showing. "The End" sounds almost a good here at it did that night. I haven't been crazy about all Steve Hoffman's audiophile LP and CD remasterings at DCC, but this one is simply terrific. The sound has a presence and depth you don't hear on the aluminum version, and Morrison's vocals are just lacerating! Highly recommended, and the DCC version of "L.A. Woman," the other Doors album that really matters, is d*mn near as good!" -James M. Shertzer
