Forgotten Vinyl #32: Doors: LA Woman
Haystak Music (Free subscription) | 10/27/2009
L.A. Woman is the sixth and last studio album that the American rock band The Doors recorded with lead singer Jim Morrison, who died in July 1971. The album's style is arguably the most blues rock -oriented of the band's catalog. Following the departure of their record producer Paul A. Rothchild (who dismissed the group's differing style as "cocktail music") around November 1970, the Doors...

London Film Festival review - When You're Strange
Exploding Celluloid Inevitable (Free subscription) | 10/25/2009
One’s likely enjoyment of a music documentary is proportional to one’s liking of the music in question, however good the documentary is. Therefore I love Fearless Freaks (the Flaming Lips documentary), but hate No Direction Home (even with Martin Scorsese directing, for me Bob Dylan is a jerk with a hideous singing voice). A film about the Doors was always going to appeal to me, even just...

Gonna miss the fog. Gonna be a lot hotter in CA than it is here at the coast. Right now, it is 62 outside and it only got up to 68 today. Hope I don't miss any new flowers blooming in the garden. Seems like yesterday this was green stalks with buds and now it is in full bloom. The rose that tries to eat the front stairs is starting to bloom. The recent haircut it got appears to have encouraged it to...

I hear there’ll be an announcement about this Saturday night at the Berlin Film Festival. Every frame of the footage, most of it never-before-seen, was shot between 1966 and 1970. And all the surviving Doors were at Sundance supporting the film—Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, John Densmore. The doc covers the entire 54 months of the band, starting with Jim and Ray in film school, and includes...

When You're Sting
Sundance Film Festival - The Salt Lake Tribune (Free subscription) | 01/18/2009
The premiere of the new Doors documentary, "When You're Strange," brought out the musical stars Saturday night. The three surviving members of the Doors showed up: Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore. I was surprised all three came, because it's no secret that Densmore has a strong dislike for the other two for what he claims is capitalizing on the Doors' success by launching a...

Galley Slaves (Free subscription) | 08/22/2008
If you're a Doors fan, you might have been surprised to learn that the surviving members of the band have been in a legal dispute against each other--specifically Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger versus John Densmore. As it turns out, the former two had been on tour as The Doors. Technically they couldn't use the name unless all three were in it, so the official title of the group was The Doors of the...
