Classicly trained pianist + flamenco guitarist + jazz drummer + possessed poet = greatness
Morrison, Manzarek, Krieger and Densmore. 'Nuff said!!
= panties flying
"Possessed Poet" bro nice. He's like the 70s reincarnated Edgar Allen Poe. A distraught genius.
LOVE IT
"self possessed"
Jim has a thousand voices man. This is a great driving song.
Great driving song through a downtown highway, lights, tracers...
OMG this is one of my favorite songs to drive to I completely agree. Windows down glasses on smile on my face
Light My Fire was also a great driving song. . . On LA freeways especially, yeah?
Almost as good as Radar Love by Golden Earring.
You can listen to L.A. Woman on the 105 and move 3 feet.
The beauty of the song is that it is studio live. No over dubbing, no added tracks. Just start recording, jam, done.
He wrote it in a few hours too.
Theres clearly overdubbed guitar.
@@BobbyGeneric145 that’s actually not true, they brought in a rhythm guitarist and a bassist for this album
“Possessed poet” now THATS a way to describe Jim
@@ILikeTrip-eb8wq they played it live. The frequently used session bass in the studio. They got the kick ass session player Jerry Scheff for this.
Weird because this voice is the Morrison voice that I think of when I think of the Doors
I always loved how he sings "Lets change the mood from glad to sadness" and then he does.
Genius! Right?
That part was densmores idea
That was Jim
You got to check out Roadhouse Blues guys. You'd definitely love that.
A must!
Yeah, that's my favorite Doors song.
Oh yeah, thats like 99% certainty theyd love roadhouse blues....got up dis mornin an got myself a beer...breakfast of champions..
"Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel" was the first thing my dad said to me when he gave me my first driving lesson. I'm not even certain he knew he was quoting The Doors - he was a doo-wop man, and much more likely to quote The Drifters than The Doors.
Definitely a must
Jim Morrison, a lovely troubled soul and a professionally supportive band heightening his lyrics of poetry to perfectionism. I love every single song.
"Motel money murder madness..." line is in reference to the mysterious homicide of R&B singer Sam Cooke, who died in an LA motel. Great lyrics by Morrison to go from driving down your freeways where everything is sunny and care free to the dark underbelly of LA.
30 years of owning this album and I never noticed America the Beautiful and you heard it first take. This is what a fresh perspective is all about. Love this channel. Love it.
That’s not on the studio cut!! 🤔
Sounds more like the British national anthem to me.
@@1967dooter ...You are correct sir! Americans changed the lyrics...”Our country ‘tis of thee, sweet land of liberty......Not “America the Beatiful”
@@BRO77TX It's on the 40th anniversary deluxe release of the album
I bought the best of the Doors back in the 80's and there was no riff in the beginning of LA WOMAN; Just that hot rod sound dying out in the distance as the music fades in. So hearing that America the Beautiful riff for the first time is great.
I feel like I was cheated 😕😪😔
A lot of whiskey and cigarettes went into that later voice.
He was also drunk most of the time in the studio.
Too much cocaine made his voice all gravelly...facts
@@DickChisqo420 I didnt know cocaine was his thing.
@@petethepirate730 ....More so the later years Definitely!!!
EXCEPT! Riders On The Storm is on the same album, and he sings totally differently on that, smoothly and softly....
Roadhouse Blues will make the play list most def!
Hands down
Yes yes I hope they do that next. They would love that track.
Definitely Roadhouse Blues! You gonna love it. Also Touch Me, Love Her Madly and Back Door Man!
Absolutely!
Charlie Smith YES!!!!!!! Best Doors song ever👍👍👍👍
As soulful as Morrison's voice is in this song, there is a sort of gritty anger and aggression to it.
Lol I’m glad I wasnt the only one who could perceive the anger in this song
He was pretty drunk at the time.
One of the best songs ever made by one of the best bands to occupy the earth.
Fun fact: Jim Morrison was a poet and overall wordsmith of sorts and “Mr. Mojo risin”, the nonsensical lyric during the breakdown, is actually an anagram for Jim Morrison.
Also the doors DID NOT have a full time bass player. This track had a studio musician, but What you’d be hearing live, and in the studio on most of the earlier albums, would be bass being played on these lower notes of a separate keyboard called a Vox Continental. Ray Manzarek would often split duties between bass rhythms and lead keyboards. Sometimes at the same time.
They were jaming with Elvis Presley's bass player, Jerry Scheff I think... and he came up with the bass line if I remember correctly.
Chris Savage nope it was a Fender Rhodes Piano Bass keyboard
Jerry Scheff played electric bass guitar.
Donald Ulrich he’s one of many bass players that played in the studio with the doors
@@barryismygod Yes but he played bass on this song.
It Jimbo's voice. Jimbo was Jim's drunk alter ego. Jimbo recorded LA Women.
He really was a worthless person, tru dat.
Jimbo is also my drunk alter ego my real name is james.
@@jackblair7943 he was an obnoxious drunk but worthless? My date and I did leave a door's concert early. Alcohol destroys...... Morrison was a ucla film major,
@@deantait8326 Completely worthless.
@@jackblair7943 Okay, calm your tits.
I got a speeding ticket listening to this song, on the way to Saint Louis...the trooper said if I don't drop this down a mile an hour, you are going to jail. I told him what was playing on the radio and he told me to head on out and slow down....
You two are my FAVOURITE reactors, your’e so smart, insightful and your’e authentic...it never feels fake with you. I wish you uploaded more videos!
If "L.A. Woman" made your play list then you MUST LISTEN to the doors The End", "People are strange" and "Roadhouse Blues" to truly understand Jim Morrison's voice range.
Peace Frog deserves a spin!
Yes, yes, yes!!!
Ok but guys.....
The spy.
and the Alabama Song
Or When the music's over
The Doors were waaaay ahead of their time. Much like Black Sabbath was as well.
2 of my all time favorites there!!!
Les S couldn't have put it better myself. Pioneers
The Doors live concerts must have been out of this world! Jim Morrison was so hypnotic as a poet and to follow up with him, you got Ray, John, and Robby who were all masters of their craft. One of the greatest fkn bands ever dude
Listen to “Love her Madly” and “Break on through to the other side.”😎
L.A. Woman was their 6th and final album before Jim Morrison’s death. All six albums with Jim are excellent!
Debateable.
Not to me.
Todd Kelly I’ll admit - I’ve been skipping “Horse Latitudes” the last decade or so LOL
Shoot3347 horse latitudes is art
Talking Deaf THIS is art: ruclips.net/video/ROJjDWQPSw4/видео.html
It's funny when George says he imagines a fat dude with a beard singing. Jim was heavier and had that full beard at that point.
Roadhouse Blues should be next
True.
I had the same thought!
They did see the album cover
I was about to write this exact comment.
got my mojo rising.
What an amazing song. Jim Morrison lyrics at his best. I grew up listening to the doors. What a great band. Morrison died way too soon. He was a great poet.
Up there with Dylan, in my humble opinion
Morrison was an educated man and very intelligent. Despite all the contrary nonsense that he was an out of control hippy dippy. He had a keen incite on the 60's. Sadly he was a flawed man like everyone else and couldn't escape his demons! If he had lived I think we would have sought out his wisdom as an enlightened man.
Well said.
The lizard king actually hated hippies, he thought they were disingenuous.
He does live. Any great artist lives on through their art. When you listen to the music or read his lyrics in those moments he is alive.
Jim Morrison was has anything but, Hippy Dippy.” Back in the day he may have referred to himself or identified as more of a “freak,” than a Hippy. Jim was hard core in every way possible. He was a highly intelligent, educated, deep thinker who was as rebellious and brilliant as they come. He was probably also the sexiest man alive at the time according to my GF. I was 13 when this album was released and pulse increases when ever I hear Jim’s voice. The Doors’ music never leaves you.
Morrisons dad was a us admiral one of the most powerful men in us navy.
Interestingly, Manzarek was classically trained on piano, Kreiger was a Flamenco guitarist, and Densmore was a jazz drummer.
And Jim was a tortured soul and alcoholic with a genius IQ. Together, they created something unique and special.
Their was a big difference then because if you wanted to learn to play an instrument in the 60s, you were taught to play Jazz or Classical music. Then, they learned Rock on their own or with friends. Now people study Rock
They might go back and learn Jazz styles. Mosr of the great drummers from the 60s were Jazz trained, Ginger Baker, Mitch Mitchell, Bill Wyman, John Bonham, Ian Paice.
And Jim was a drunken poet...
Also Robby had only been playing electric guitar for six months when he joined the doors
Dudes that comparisson between Tool Anema and LA Woman, you are genius! It has the same vibe, different style same message, of course Tool is more apocalyptic.
Sadly, The Doors never got to play one song live from LA Woman. An absolute crime. RIP, Jim.
He is not singing about a woman as an actual living being.
In the context of this song, L.A. IS the woman.
Hope that helps.
reminds of american woman.. had to point out to younger coworkers that it is not about a woman.. it is about the US
You sir, are a Doors fan.
I thought the song was about hitting LA looking to score 😂
@@JeffPenaify right on man. that too.
hills are filled with fire
I’d love to see y’all react to People Are Strange by The Doors, Nights in White Satin by The Moody Blues and Spill The Wine by Eric Burdon and War.
Wait I think you mean lost boys by the doors
If you are going to mention 'Nights in White Satin' you MUST acknowledge
'A Whiter shade of Pale' by Procol Harum ...
You are a classy lady, bless your heart ❤️
Yesss
War will change their lives. Everybody knows 'Low Rider', but something like 'Slippin' Into Darkness' or 'The World Is A Ghetto' would blow their minds.
Hell yeah good taste
Robby Krieger is criminally underrated as a guitarist.
Preech!
They all were extremely talented musicions but most people focused on Jim who was an excellent lyricist, not the best singer though, but a great frontman. Ray got a lot of their props too because of his organ play AND because he was their most outspoken member. John could play his ass off too. They were all good individualy but its the beauty of them playing in unison that brings the magic of The Doors to life.
Peace
Mr Mojo Risin is an anagram of his name. I love that.
Dude you captured it! "Motel, money, murder, madness! Let's change the mood from glad to sadness!" Total L.A. Woman right there! This is their city and The Doors world! Things are up and they are down but it's the world they are living in L.A.
Mr. Ray Manzarek was a genius on the keys, absolute beast!
RIP
John Densmore and the bass too!
Love Riders On The Storm too, the man is so tasteful in the jam.
@@AlexanderNixonArtHistory the bass player his name was Jerry chef and he was Elvis's bass player from 1968 until his death in 1977 which thrill gym two pieces because Morrison was a huge Elvis fan
@@johnswright2598 I am so grateful you shared that information with me. You are talking to the official, #1 Doors fan here. ;)
Finally another Doors video 😁👍🏻
Yes I agree 💯
Yes, The Doors are significant to know. I would like them (LOST IN VEGAS) to listen to Ghost Song, a post-Jim's death-song. Jim is also consider to be a Poet, and the other members/instruments were equally Geniuses as well!
Jim Morrison didn't have a stylist. He created his look, approach, stage persona, and most all Rock singers have talen from his playbook.
@@bradhardisty1652 almost correct but he admired Brian Jones from the Stones
@@bradhardisty1652 He also admits to learning a lot from opening for Van Morrison
Elvis bass player Jerry Schiff played on this album, in concert Ray played the bass on the keyboards with one hand while playing chords with his other hand
That's the "porcelain echo". He recorded his vocals for this song (and possibly the whole album) in the studio bathroom. It makes his vocals sound a bit different, and this particular remix enhances that. Also I just recently learned that it's Elvis' bassist at the time (Jerry Scheff) on bass for this album. Their producer (Bruce Botnick) usually played bass on their studio tracks but they brought in Scheff at Morrison's request (IIRC). Of course, Ray Manzarek would do double duty playing a bass keyboard with his left hand when they played live.
Jims blues era towards his death were some of the best songs.
They cut out the crap and stripped it down. Just your everyday next door superstar garage band.
Upbeat music with dark lyrics was a trademark of the Doors.
That phrase reminds me of Third Eye Blind.
I have to think that The Smiths were influenced by the Doors (happy-sounding music with decidedly dark lyrics and undertones).
@@MS-it9vv I think the Smiths were just inspired by a man wallowing in his misery.
Like The Smiths
For a band that had so many great songs this is probably my favorite (this & Roadhouse Blues) it never gets old & is probably one of the best driving songs ever recorded....check out “Peace Frog”
This track is great, the album is magnificent. More of this bluesy quality on it as you all know. Of course it followed Morrison Hotel where that twisted alt-country-blues sound started for the Doors.
Y'all get it. That's why I keep coming back.
The Doors are the perfect soundtrack to summer cruising at night, convertible optional.
Definitely driving music. When I came to LA on my first business trip I drove down Sunset Blvd windows down with Doors full blast!
Speeding ticket song
I never understood why so many people hate on The Doors. I've always liked them
That's the beauty of his voice. It came from a messed up place but it was beautiful. 💖
Oh thats jim alright. He had more than one singing style, very versatile
it wasn't a different style, he was drunk off his ass while recording this album.
@@justindearmond1 don't forget this was their last album, he's 5 years older than when they first started and his voice had been ravaged (not being dramatic, it's true) by drugs, booze, cigarettes and the constant screaming over the yeats. He did not take care of his singing voice at all.
I think if Jim had lived, eventually his singing would've become a lot like Tom Waits.
@@justindearmond1 I think you're likely dead wrong on that, see my earlier comments.
Morrison definitely sings this song. He was absolutely hammered during nearly the entire recording session for this album.
According to who?
@@theincorruptedeye8226 read Robbie's book, he was smashed 24-7. full blown alcoholic
He was an alcoholic so comes with the territory.
@@theincorruptedeye8226 everyone ever who knows the doors lol I was literally named after him I’ve researched all about him
@@theincorruptedeye8226most of their songs are based off acid lol
The Doors L. A. Woman was released in 1971 and that was their last album due to the fact Jim Morrison (lead singer) died of a heart attack while taking a break in Paris, France. He was only 27 years old. (Note: Jim Morrison did all the lead vocals on the songs.)
That's Jim singing🥰. I used to listen to that cassette every day on my Walkman on my way back and forth to work ( making meals for the homeless) every day for a long period in 1988. He really made my days💃
The End is very much it’s own thing. It’s not about getting to know The Doors, it’s just a weird trip, that doesn’t hand you a good example of what this band does best.
The end was a short song when written. The Doors used to have long improvised instrumentals to fill thier set at the whiskey. These instrumentals allowed Jim to improvise poetry in the moment. His poetry is open to interpretation, Jim said himself "it means what you want it to mean".
I've loved this band since the first time hearing my father play it when I was 8.
Shiioiit. The End is EVERYTHING the Doors were the best at
The End, Celebration of the Lizard, The Crystal Ship, When the Music's Over etc. are all just as essential to understanding the band as their radio friendly stuff. Morrison was a poet (with wildly varying results) and his work was heavily influenced by psychedelics so you can't really separate that stuff from the rest of the band's output.
The End is probably the darkest Doors track. If you've watched Apocalypse Now, you've heard this song at the beginning and end. It is powerful both for its dark beauty and its unsettling theme.
The Doors were mostly a blues band in my opinion even if they had other aspects.
This is JIM MORRISON, he could sing so melodic and beautiful and in one second rip your heart out with a blood curdling scream !!!! Jim loved singing blues. Great job guys !!!!
That change in mood at 15:40 in this video is cool because he sings 'Let's change the mood from glad to sadness' and right after that the song changes to a Minor tonality from being Major throughout the initial part of the song. The music literally changed from 'happy' to 'sad'
That's funny that you guys analyzed that beginning part. My son said it hurts his ears lol. He's got perfect pitch so I understand his logic.
"My image is this heavy set, grungy, big bearded. . . "
By the time they recorded L.A. woman, your not far off.
Are you thinking of Elvis?
Tony Rock no he is not. Jim Morrison got fat with a beard
"How about some tacos?" Jim Morrison
I don´t know if someone else already said this, but Mr Mojo Risin is an anagram for Jim Morrison :)
Actually the name was derived from a piece of junk-mail that Jim received, after which he adopted it.
Figured that out being bored in an English class in ‘82
@@frankburns2414 You figured out that it was not an anagram?
Jerry Scheff In 1971, he appeared on L.A. Woman, the final album recorded by The Doors with Jim Morrison, playing bass on every track save one. In July 1969, Scheff became a member of Elvis Presley's touring TCB Band. 1st time Doors used bass player They asked Jerry to join to keep Jim focused because of Jim's respect for Elvis n his band
LA Woman is the song Jim was allowed to let loose and over blow. The album didn’t have a producer restraining the sound. This song captures Jim finally set free.
You were mostly correct! The distorted sounds at the beginning are "My Country, 'Tis Of Thee".
Bingo
@@raidrfrk wrong it's God Save The Queen. English National Anthem
@@bendream544 or God save the King
Ben Dream both songs share the same melody.
That wasn't added-to/contained in the opening of the song, until the 40th Anniversary edition of L.A. Woman (released in 2012). ...The "My Country 'tis Of Thee" thing is a new element (never part of the classic version or people's memories of the song) [It IS cool, and effective, though!]
Peacefrog, Moonlight Drive, Break on Through..... So many more
Break on though my brother
I'm for Peace Frog!
The Doors never really considered themselves part of the Hippie peace generation - they related more to The Beat generation that preceded it - one reason their music was so strongly influenced by Blues - I think the Miami concert was when this division really came out as Jim screamed at the crowd of hippies who wanted to hear Light My Fire and called them all "slaves" - he was out of his mind and got arrested later on and charged with public indecency and all that jazz ...
What a guy😂 no one like Morrison an there never will be
The album is mostly a look at the underbelly of LA. The song LA Woman is a love song to his city! The line, “if they say I never loved you, you know they are a liar,” was because in the last year of his life he and his girlfriend had moved to Paris.
If you really want your mind blown, listen to “The End,” “When the Music’s Over,” “The Soft Parade,” and “Texas Radio and the Big Beat.”
Jim Morrison had a very versatile voice. He doesn't sound the same in any of the Doors songs.
ARIS NIKOLAOU he was drunk and fat and tired.
@@sarahwyatt2697
Yep. Cigarettes, beer etc. deepened his voice.
He's a changeling.
"... topless bars. Never saw a woman so alone, so alone..." Hard to imagine a more powerful, visual statement with so few words in rock lyrics. Well-crafted, thoughtful poetry in an eternal song.
The entire LA Woman album has a jazzy/blues genre. So youd definitely have to check it out. In particular the number "Car hiss by my window" that number is such a typical blues youd definitely love
BEST song on the album-yup.
John Densmore learned his chops from jazz great drummers, and what he's up to around minute 12:40 in this video is all Elvin Jones.
"Woke up this morning and got myself a beer." Morrison could write beautifully as well.
Old story goes that he was chatting with Alice Cooper, and got that line from him.
"Let me photograph your soul, memorize your alleys on an endless roll." Heck, that sounds good even just speaking it!
This is Jim Morrison's alter-ego "Mr. Mojo Risin" -- Hammered as hell in the bathroom of a Hollywood bungalow
Mr. Mojo Risin is a acronym for Jim Morrison
You should really do something from The Rolling Stones . “Missing you.” “Going to a Go Go”. “Symphony for the devil “ maybe you have and I missed it? I’m 51 years old and have loved all music from an early age. So glad to see you guys putting this kind of stuff out there for the younger people to experience . Props to you both #lovinit
Daniel Dean Not an acronym, an anagram
@@danieldeanmasterfinisher4715 *'Sympathy foe the Devil'*
Mr. Mojo Risen, is simply Jim Morrison"s name jumbled up>
RIP Mr Morrison WE NEVER FORGET WHAT YOU GIVE TO US love you for ever !!!
Guitarist, keyboardist, drummer, vocalist created mystical, mythical, magical tunes for us to rock to.
"Love her madly" that's a very underrated song by the doors
at the time Love Her Madly was on the radio ALL the time...it might have been a number one. All these years later the bigger epic tunes get more attention but you're right Love Her Madly was fIRE
Love her madly is excellent
Ray Mandzarek was perhaps the greatest pianist in rock. He would play piano with one hand, a bass line with the other.
Tori Amos would give him a run for his money. She plays piano and keyboard/harpsichord/whatever, straddling the bench and going from one mic to other depending on which instrument is primary at the moment.
John Paul Jones
No one mentioned here has the chops Keith Emerson had and none were as groovy or nasty as Jon Lord!
NLT Crow JPJ was the 1st to pop into my head. John Lord is one of the greats. Keith Emerson from...Emerson Lake and Palmer? I am a young buck of 48 and really never listened to them much.
you guys crack me up. Great video! The way you guys reacted to this song is how I react every time I hear it
Yes that is Jim singing. On this album he took the mic in a bathroom to record the whole album. After years of alcoholism his voice showed the damage even though he kept the soul of himself. I enjoy you two handsome guys very much.
The Doors were like Faith No More back in the 60s. Extreme singer. Great keyboards. Unique guitar player.
That's a really good comparison.
Or Faith No More was like the Doors.
Not a bad comparison. But a better comparison of those 2 were that they both gave rock music the kick in the nuts it needed to move forward
and a helluva bassist
Crystal Ship, Break On Through and People Are Strange are also worth checking out.
Soul Kitchen
Interesting story about this song: When it was recorded, the band members were not speaking to each other and recorded it in a hotel room in L.A. The band was playing in the main part of the room and Jim was singing in the bathroom. That's why his voice has sort of a echo quality to it...
You sir are incorrect. It was recorded at the Doors workshop
@@shepherdoffire9263 And yet, somehow, he got the "singing in the bathroom" part right...although Wikipedia states that he was in the doorway to the bathroom. Either way, porcelain echo. Apparently the recording sessions started to go MUCH better after Paul Rothschild quit, leaving engineer Bruce Botnick in charge of the recording sessions. Apparently Rothschild REALLY hated "Love Her Madly".
Wow, man I loved your reaction.
The Doors captured the truth and the feel of LA in 1970, and that same truth and feel applies to LA today! LA Woman was recorded in 1970, and released in 1971. You nailed it! You're right, Mr. Mojo Risin' was Jim Morrison's alter ego. As the story goes, when Jim Morrison was a boy, his family came across a fatal accident involving a bus full of Native American Indians. He said that it was a really bad accident scene with a lot of bodies so badly injured, still laying in the road and on the side of the road as his family drove by. He said he saw some of them look right at him!! He couldn't look away and then he said he saw their souls leaving their bodies. Jim said that one of them entered his body!! He felt him inside his mind as a little boy. He said that man would come out sometimes, and when he got older, that man became his alter ego! Remember, the country was at war in Vietnam. The teens and 20 somethings were doing drugs. Everyone was fascinated by drugs. I might have only been a kid, but growing up in a big family in the city, I watched it all happen. The Doors were playing on every radio on every street corner as we all watched the older teen boys being marched off to war. The average U.S. soldier was a 19-year-old man from a poor or working-class family and they were drafted. The draft didn't end until 1973. This amazing one of a kind song brings back my childhood days. Every teen and 20 something , even, kids were mesmerized by the Doors. I still listen to it when I want to feel young and wild. THANK YOU for your appreciation of this counter culture song . Gotta' keep on risin'! Risin, risin!! Yea!
Ahh, The Doors make me swoon. James was such a unique man. Their music, for me, is profound on a spiritual level.
Man you guys help me see some of these songs in a different light. Thanks free thinking folk.
The bassist on this track is the great Jerry Scheff. He was the bass player in Elvis Presley’s Taking Care of Businees Band.
This song and driving through the Hollywood hills in a cabrio in the summer = pure bliss 😄
Great reaction. You all break it down. Very professionally produced video.
L.A. Woman is definitely fire! Hard to call any one song of theirs, "their best," but, for "just a good jam" purposes... this one could easily be referred to as one of their best, if not THE best.
That being said, my personal Doors favorites are;
* The Wasp (Texas Radio and the Big Beat)
* Roadhouse Blues
* Spanish Caravan
* Break On Through
* The Unknown Soldier
* When the Music's Over
Keep it up guys! Lovin' it!
#feelthemusic
Love Break on through!! on of my all time favorites!!
Dude love that hashtag! #feelthemusic
It was Morrison singing, his voice got more mature and more controlled
He was a modern day poet a real genuine talent.
"Spanish Caravan" is an underatted tune, check it out one day, makes references to Portugal e Spain and it´s one of my fav :)
@@1bigrowdy didn't know that, thanks for the info 😎
that just might be the reason he " knew well his strings" 👌
Carry me caravan, take me awayyy
Peace Frogs. Short but SWEET!!
This song has what many fans and listeners would consider to be a signature Jim Morrison vocal -- that deep tenor/baritone with grit and growl. A sense of menace and pain woven in.
These 2 guys are great. They feel music
"When the music's over". You gotta do it . The best Doors song ever
Earl Montgomery but please do the isle of wight live version
Agree
Agree
What about the Alabama Whiskey Song??,?
When the musics over just Might be the best song ever written
I think punk is one of the classic genres you guys haven’t touched yet. The Dead Kennedy’s “holiday in Cambodia” would be dope!
yes yes
i vote for RIOT
bad brains ''i'' . HR had insane vocal transition
They've done some Ramones, but could definitely dig deeper.
Black Flag -Rise Above
Keyboardist Ray Manzarek explained the song's meaning to Uncut magazine September 2011: "A song about driving madly down the LA freeway - either heading into LA or going out on the 405 up to San Francisco. You're a beatnik on the road, like Kerouac and Neal Cassady, barreling down the freeway as fast as you can go."
That's Jimbo. He was just blitzed outta his mind constantly. Wasn't a moment he didn't have a bottle in his hand
Love you guys. I see all these channels trying to imitate what you guy's are doing, but at the end of the day they don't appreciate the greatness of a song and break it down like you all. You are absolutely correct on this song being a metaphor. Jim Morrison was a brilliant song writer. Cops in cars, never saw a woman so alone - great stuff. It's metaphoric, the physicality of the town and thinking of a woman and we need to take care of her. I'm from East LA, a part of LA that isn't glamourous at all. I love the end this song, Morrison repeats MOJO Rising. Jim Morrison created an ingenious anagram of his name by re-arranging the letters to spell “Mr. Mojo Risin. A mojo is a voodoo magic charm. It can be specifically a fertility charm, or just a generic word for voodoo magic or if you have a collection of charms you keep them in a "Mojo Bag"If the bag were red, it would be a mojo for love and you would have to put a personal item, such as hair or bit of clothing in order for the mojo to work. If the mojo were made out of a black bag it would be for death. Back then people thought mojo meant sexual energy, including Jim Morrison. I think Muddy Waters is the first to reference MOJO in one of his songs, "Mojo Blues". I love this song being from LA and all, if you really think about about the lyrics, it is a sad song. Love you guys! Keep up the greatness. Con Mucho Respecto Y con Mucho Amor.
In their early days they kept it short n sweet n it was perfect to watch! Now they just drag on about their opinions and it just gets a massive eye roll from me
For those arguing about the rhythm at the beginning - It’s the rhythm for “God Save The Queen” and/ or “My Country Tis Of Thee” They both used the same rhythm. “God save the Queen” first, and then “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” used it later. So...for those arguing...you’re both correct.
My first concert The Dioors in Detroit, Mi Cobo Hall spring 1970, LA Woman not out yet! Last song played "Light my Fire" well it was me and 2 friends we had to leave we were only 13 and parents pick us up, Jim said he playing another hour! Blue Image on stage before doors. Also their Live album From Detroit.
I loved riding around L.A. and seeing what he saw when it came on the radio:
"Cops in cars, the topless bars"
Having hippie parents who got into heavy drugs i was aware of the dark side of L.A.
As a kid saw the big "Doors" billboard on Sunset Blvd and how they sang of the underside; that life was darkness AND sunshine.
Best cruz'n song ever. Still have the eight track tape and play it when I hit the road in the ol' Charger!!! Slow Ride by Foghat, damn good freeway song too!!!!
That's awesome
Radar love for me.
I hear you loud and clear 340 Duster here
Robbie Krieger was kickin' on guitar.
Great song to cruise to, but Radar Love is #1 on my list.
Watching you guys experience this song for the first time helps me to hear it with fresh ears---even though LA WOMAN is one of my all-time favorite albums. There are a lot of music 'reactors' on YT, but in my humble opinion, you guys are the best.
Let err rip! Jim's vocals have an incredible power here. I've always loved that part at the middle-end. So much soul and gusto!
That's Jim..what a great band and even better front man
