Led by one of the most charismatic frontmen of all time – Jim Morrison, The Doors made a uniquely unforgettable mark on rock and roll music that will stay with us forever. Forged by their intense and improvisational mix of blues and jazz, these pop-icons of the 60s used rock music as a vortex of sound; and beautifully created a musical mechanism that sucked in a mind-blowing amount of people.
Fuelled by the psychedelic, surreal poetry of Morrison, The Doors’ music has always been easily accessible. Entwined with the band’s bluesy tones, the jazz-inflicted rhythms and the mystery of Morrison’s existence, together they crafted something historically breathtaking. A sense of madness and musical embodiment that went from one extreme to the other… but fuckin’ worked fantastically in every exciting aspect.
Combining the best of The Doors in a two-sided classic vinyl, The Doors’ Greatest Hits is a unique fusion of tracks that grabbed everyone’s attention when it came out. Heck, it still does! As awe-inspiring then as it now, the record is fuelled by Morrison’s brilliant sense of fantasy, the band’s adventurous sense of creativity, those legendary melodies, that vintage groove and the extreme sex appeal.
Showcasing some of their best work including the well-loved classics Hello, I Love You, Light My Fire, Love Me Two Times, Riders on the Storm, Roadhouse Blues and LA Woman, the Greatest Hits album certainly hits that rock n’ roll sweet spot.
