2023 Albums Thing 112 - The Doors “The Best Of…”
Posted on
An 18 track, double LP round-up of exactly what it says on the sleeve, “The Best Of The Doors”.
There was a time in the 60’s in LA when on given nights on Sunset Boulevard you could go into a club like Ciro’s or the Whiskey A Go-Go and see The Byrds or Buffalo Springfield or Love or The Doors, what a time that must have been.
All their great singles are here “Light My Fire”, “Break On Through”, “Hello I Love You”, “Riders On The Storm” (in its full length form) but it’s the album tracks, longer pieces, that stand out. “The End”, used to incredible effect in Francis Ford Coppola’s “Apocalypse Now”, “When The Music’s Over” and the complete version of “Roadhouse Blues”.
As Best Of’s go this one covers everything you need.
