EPISODE 132: A soulful and distinctive singer, talented keyboardist and songwriter, T Bear (Richard T Bear) made his mark as a solo artist and collaborator with many iconic artists—Crosby, Stills and Nash, The Blues Brothers, Richie Havens, Cher, Paul Shaffer, to name a few. In 1978, T Bear signed with RCA Records and released Red, Hot & Blue that featured Les Dudek, Billy Squier, and the Brecker Brothers. He has shared the stage with Richie Havens, Odetta, The Doobie Brothers and Jeff Beck. Domestic responsibilities and a struggle to regain his sobriety, which he did in 1983, forced him to put his music career on hold. He became instrumental in developing the Musicians Picnic, serving on its board of directors, which led to the creation of Musicians Assistance Program, now part of MusiCares Foundation. T Bear credits his late wife for encouraging his comeback.After a self-imposed hiatus from the music industry that lasted nearly three decades, T Bear, aka Richard T Bear, keyboardist, vocalist, songwriter, returns with a new album, Fresh Bear Tracks, released on Quarto Valley Records. A blend of blues, soul and rock with a who's who of special guests including Stephen Stills, Robby Krieger, Edgar Winter, Tom Scott, Walter Trout, Hutch Hutchinson, Laurence Juber, and more. Produced by Grammy Award winner Tony Braunagel, Fresh Bear Tracks was recorded at Robby Krieger's studio in Los Angeles. instagram.com/richard_tbearContact us: makingsoundpodcast.comFollow on Instagram: @makingsoundpodcastFollow on Threads: @jannkloseJoin our Facebook GroupPlease support the show with a donation, thank you for listening!

S4-Ep.1 The Doors-Self-Titled Release (Elektra) Released January 4, 1967, Recorded August of 1966 Elektra Records  The Doors is a groundbreaking debut album that blends rock, blues, jazz, and psychedelia with a unique poetic sensibility, largely driven by Jim Morrison's dark, introspective lyrics. Recorded in just six days, the album features a distinctive sound, notably Ray Manzarek's Vox Continental organ, Robby Krieger's flamenco-inspired guitar work, and John Densmore's jazzy drum style. Key tracks like "Light My Fire," with its iconic organ riff and extended solos, and "Break On Through (To the Other Side)," with its rebellious energy, set the stage for the band's rise to fame. The album's fusion of musical styles, alongside Morrison's mysticism and philosophical themes, made it an instant classic, peaking at #2 on the U.S. charts. While not all tracks are equally memorable, The Doors established the band as one of rock music's most innovative and influential forces during the 1960s.

Stephen has picked some crackers in the past, and this time, he's chosen the iconic 1991 biopic The Doors. The production of The Doors (1991), directed by Oliver Stone, was a passionate and meticulous effort to capture the wild spirit of Jim Morrison and the iconic 1960s rock band. Stone, known for his intense filmmaking style, had long been fascinated by Morrison and sought to tell a story that reflected both the mysticism and chaos surrounding the band's rise to fame. Val Kilmer was cast as Jim Morrison, with his intense commitment to the role standing out—Kilmer spent months studying Morrison's mannerisms, voice, and even his singing style. The film incorporated many real-life locations from the band's history, including Los Angeles' Sunset Strip, and used these settings to evoke the authentic feel of the late '60s counterculture. Stone's production team faced the challenge of balancing a factual representation of the band's history with a more stylized, mythical portrayal of Morrison's journey. With the help of surviving band members like Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger, the production sought to ensure the film remained true to the music and the spirit of The Doors. However, some of Morrison's portrayal as a self-destructive, hedonistic figure led to disputes over historical accuracy, with band members and critics arguing that Stone leaned too heavily on the mythic aspects of Morrison's persona. Despite these debates, the film was praised for its dynamic cinematography, a powerful performance by Kilmer, and a soundtrack that introduced The Doors' music to a new generation.

The film chronicles Morrison's journey from a college student in Los Angeles to a countercultural icon, exploring his deep connection to music, poetry, and the darker aspects of his psyche. As the band gains fame, Morrison's increasing substance abuse and erratic behavior lead to tensions with his bandmates and those closest to him. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevhsstrikesback/support

Such is the diversity of musicality that she can display at will. No wonder she is in demand from artists Shania Twain to Struggle Jennings to Moby, Zucchero and Slash. World class violin and viola player in both classical and fiddle styles, she also happens to be one of a small number of female pedal steel guitarists in the world. During a recent performance as a guest artist with Blues Traveler, John Popper announced live on stage, “Andrea Whitt, she's fucking awesome!” Earlier this year guitar legend Robby Krieger joined Andrea on stage as a special guest for her first solo show.

As an international touring artist on fiddle and pedal steel, Andrea Whitt will be joiningMoby in Europe this September on his first tour in ten years. She has also toured with country megastar Shania Twain, Italian rocker Zucchero, country artist/rapper Struggle Jennings opening for Jelly Roll, and an exclusive VIP experience performance on the Dead and Company tour. This year Andrea stepped out from her long time role as a side musician and produced her first solo show where Robby Krieger from The Doors joined her on stage as a special guest. She was also recently a guest performer with the well-known jam band, Blues Traveler.   Andrea has performed at many of the world's top amphitheaters, arenas and theaters, and has shared stages with high-profile artists across all genres. Her credits include Journey, Ariana Grande, Moby, Kamasi Washington, KYGO, Deep Purple, Stevie Wonder, Cee-Lo Green, One Republic, Natalie Cole, John Legend, Halsey, Harry Connick Jr., Phil Lesh, Jelly Roll, BB Rexha, 30 Seconds to Mars, and Allison Wonderland. Last fall she joined the house band for the CMT show ‘Smashing Glass' where she performed with Clint Black, Chris Jensen, Lucy Silvas. Andrea has also recorded on many acclaimed albums, including Kendrick Lamar's Grammy Award-winning To Pimp a Butterfly, Kendrick Lamar's Damn, Kamasi Washington's The Epic and Harmony of Difference, Zucchero's Black Cat Live, Stu Hamm's Hold Fast, Blxst, Katie Gavin of Muna, and a PBS special with Shania Twain.   Set for August 2024, Andrea Whitt's next release is “Sleepwalk,” her take on the classic song by Santo & Johnny. Andrea's version dark, dreamy and ethereal, and sounds like what you'd get if Lana Del Rey played pedal steel. The “Sleepwalk” video was shot at the historic Madonna Inn in San Luis Obispo. Since most of her work is as a hired performer with other artists, when she has a release of her own, Andrea puts time and care into every facet of her artistry including styling her own wardrobe, artistic direction, and merch designs.   Determined and eager to explore new facets of creativity, Andrea wants her life to feel like the non-stop expression of Interlochen Arts Camp she went to growing up. In addition to music, she's a lifelong visual artist, having started drawing and painting when she was a toddler. Andrea is regularly commissioned for paintings in her signature ink and watercolor and oil painting styles. Much of her work can be found on her site, Boho Bunnie, which started as a fashion blog with recognition from press such as Marie Clare, Britt & Co and Free People. Modeling for the camera has “a similar type of energy” to performing on stage. The Boho Bunnie blog is morphing into a lifestyle brand, which produces products that inspire and encapsulate the fun, sexy, and expressive bohemian in all of us. She's now hard at work building the Boho Bunnie brand, which includes art prints, merch she has designed, fashion and a perfume line.   Want to watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

He has shared stages with artists such as Dave Mason, Mick Fleetwood, the Doobie Brothers, Richie Havens and Odetta. T. Bear penned "Love and Pain," a track found on Take Me Home, one of Cher's most successful albums and also tallied several hits on his own, including the single "Sunshine Hotel" from his debut album Red, Hot and Blue. He has appeared on a number of recordings including CSN's Southern Cross, Billy Squier's Tale of the Tape and The Blues Brothers Soundtrack album. After taking some time to focus on his own sobriety, T. Bear became an early activist helping others with addiction. His self-imposed hiatus lasted nearly three decades, and now T Bear is back with two striking new releases, Fresh Bear Tracks and The Way of the World, his first studio albums in 25+ years. Richard is a distinctive singer and talented keyboard player. His latest albums feature a host of special guests. From Stephen Stills, Robby Krieger, Edgar Winter, Walter Trout, to former Paul McCartney & Wings members Laurence Juber and Denny Seiwell and The Heartbreakers' Benmont Tench. His latest album, The Way of The World, was written and recorded as the world emerged from the pandemic. It boasts a stunning set of 13 original songs. Musically, it's a stirring melodic mix of blues, rock n roll, Americana, and roots. T. Bear's first album spawned the single “Sunshine Hotel.” A remix of the song climbed to #4 on the world dance charts before becoming the dance staple that it remains today. Richard has appeared on numerous recordings by iconic artists including Crosby, Stills and Nash's Southern Cross, The Blues Brothers Soundtrack, Richie Havens Mixed Bag II, Kiss members Gene Simmons and Peter Criss' solo ventures, as well as Toby Beau's hit single My Angel Baby. As a soloist T Bear found his initial inspiration in the sounds of the British Invasion. At age 13 he was writing his own songs.  An early break came when he was working at Manny's Music in New York City when Hot Tuna's Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady stopped in and hear him improvising on piano. They were impressed enough to ask him to sit in with them during a Hot Tuna show at the famed Fillmore East. He worked for a time as Carly Simon's road manager and opened shows for the likes of Jeff Beck and Richie Havens before moving to Los Angeles.  In 1983, he took a lengthy hiatus from making music to get his personal life in order before returning to action in 2017. Fast forward to the present and T Bear is so excited about the new album.  As he puts it, “Making The Way of the World was like getting a new pair of glasses. I see everything more clearly and in focus around me. These are songs that made me think and dream. It's an oasis for the mind.” Meet Richard T Bear this week as he unravels his incredible story of survival and comeback against all odds. I hope you really enjoy this episode.

In this exclusive episode of LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl, host Scott Dudelson speaks to one of the greatest guitarists in Rock and Roll History - Robby Krieger of The Doors. As founding member and guitarist of The Doors, Krieger wrote some of the bands most iconic songs including "Light My Fire," "Love Her Madly" and "Touch Me." Over the last forty years Krieger has carved out a career as a jazz/instrumental musician releasing nearly a dozen albums over that time (not including his collaboration with former Doors members in The Butts Band which we discuss in this episode) More recently Krieger has been performing with his jazz-funk instrumental group, The Soul Savages, which recently released their debut album (and its a super great album!).   In this episode Dudelson and Robby dive deep into the new Soul Savages album as well as Robby's new autobiography "Set the Night On Fire" which details his life in The Doors and beyond. Providing a rare glimpse into Krieger's creative process, we discuss the making of The Soul Savages album and lay out the case why its Robby's best solo work to date. We also discuss a wide range of topics including The Butts Band, how Robby got the nickname The Worm,' the human side of Jim Morrison, the making of "American Prayer," who Robby thinks does a great job covering Jim Morrison singing, as well as Kriegers personal battles with substance abuse, the mythos of The Doors, Robby's favorite Doors album/song and much more.

Blues, Hard Rock, Psychedelic und Seemannslieder – "Morrison Hotel" von The Doors

SWR1 Meilensteine - Alben die Geschichte machten

"Morrison Hotel" von The Doors erschien im Februar 1970. Es war das fünfte Album der Doors und ist – wie es sich für einen richtigen Meilensteine-Klassiker gehört – kaum gealtert. Die Erstsendung des Meilensteins zu "Morrison Hotel" lief Ende Januar 2020 zum damaligen 50. Jubiläum des Albums. Das Album verkaufte sich in weniger als drei Tagen bereits mehr als eine Million Mal und gilt als eines der größten Rockalben aller Zeiten. "Blues, Hard Rock, Psychedelic und Seemannslieder, eine verrückte und wilde Mischung, depressiv, mystisch oder albern verrückt – so wie die Doors halt waren." (SWR1 Musikredakteur Frank König) Wer sich als Doors-Fan vor 50 Jahren diese Scheibe gekauft und aufgelegt hat, der war womöglich erleichtert über den bluesigen Sound. Das war ein echtes Comeback, was da passiert ist! Das Vorgängeralbum "The Soft Parade" fiel unter anderem durch sehr viele orchestrale Einsätze aus dem normalen Door-Sound raus – und das kam bei den Fans und Presse nicht so gut an. Mit "Morrison Hotel" sind sie zurückgegangen zu ihren Wurzeln, zu richtigem Blues. Man könnte denken, es wäre ein Blues Klassiker, ist es aber nicht. "Ich glaube, es ist das Erfolgsgeheimnis dieses Albums, dass die Fans wieder gespürt haben, sie sind zurück bei ihren Blues-Wurzeln gelandet." (SWR1 Musikredakteurin Katharina Heinius über "Morrison Hotel" von The Doors) Der besondere Doors-Sound auf "Morrison Hotel" Die Doors machen mit ihrer Musik musikalisch Räume auf. Sie erweitern den Blues in dem Sinn, dass sie für große Instrumentalflächen in ihren Songs Platz lassen. Der Hörer muss sich nicht zwangsläufig immer mit dem Text beschäftigen, er kann sich auch einfach in die Musik fallen nd sich von ihr treiben lassen. Für ihre Vorgängeralben haben sich The Doors immer wieder Session-Musiker mit ins Studio geholt, da war immer viel los. Das haben sie jetzt für dieses Album tatsächlich weniger gemacht. Sie haben die Songs vor allem mit Jim Morrisons Gesang, Gitarre, Bass und Orgel aufgenommen. Bei manchen Songs sind dennoch Session-Musiker reingekommen, wie beispielsweise bei "Roadhouse Blues". The Doors sind eine der wenigen Bands, die keinen Bassisten haben, so haben sie sich für diesen Song Lonnie Mack zum jammen eingeladen, er war einer der großen Bassisten in dieser Zeit in Hollywood. Im November 1969 haben The Doors im Elektra Sound Recording Studio, einem Studio in West Hollywood, angefangen "Morrison Hotel" aufzunehmen. Letztlich wurde "You Make Me Real" dann die erste Single-Auskopplung von "Morrison Hotel" – und war nicht besonders erfolgreich. Jim Morrison hat in einem Interview mal gesagt, dass sie sich fast immer für die vermeintlich falsche Single auf ihren Alben entschieden haben, wenn es darum geht, wie erfolgreich der Song im Anschluss wurde. Die Entstehungsgeschichte der Doors Ray Manzarek und Jim Morrison haben sich im Studium kennengelernt und sich später irgendwann wiedergetroffen. Manzarek, der selbst Keyboard spielte, war sofort begeistert von Morrisons Stimme und seinen Texten, am Strand haben die beiden The Doors gegründet. Sie machten sich auf die Suche nach passenden Musikern und fanden Robby Krieger und John Densmore, die Gitarre und Schlagzeug spielten. Jim Morrison – Versoffener Poet & "Rock-Schamane" Morrison war bekannt dafür, dass er sehr gerne auf Blues-Nummern gesungen hat, wenn er alkoholisiert war – und das war in dieser Zeit bei diesen Aufnahmen ein großes Problem, denn sein Alkoholkonsum war erheblich. "Ja, er war schlicht und ergreifend ein versoffener Poet, oder? Ja, das kann man so sagen. Es war ja auch Teil seiner Kunst (…) diese Provokation alles zu zerstören oder dieses selbstzerstörerische Element. Er war so ein Grenzgänger, der wollte das auch ausprobieren." (SWR1 Musikredakteur Frank König über Jim Morrison) Morrison hatte reichlich Probleme dadurch, viele Prozesse am Hals und auch die öffentliche Stimmung kippte dadurch bei den Doors. Sie durften in manchen Bundesstaaten nicht mehr öffentlich auftreten. Morrison war auf der Bühne unter Alkoholeinfluss unkalkulierbar. Als die Polizei auf die Bühne kam und ihn mitgenommen hat, sind die Fans völlig ausgerastet und wenn er auf der Bühne die Besinnung verloren hat, hat er sich auch mal nackig gemacht. Jim Morrison war nicht von vornherein so auf der Bühne. Als die Doors 1965 angefangen haben Gigs zu spielen, stand er zunächst mit dem Rücken zum Publikum auf der Bühne. Erst später hat er sich eine künstlerische Figur zugelegt und seine düstere Seite kam mit dazu. Ray Manzarek hat diese Seite an ihm immer "Jimbo" genannt. Diese exzentrische, düstere Seite war dann auch jene, die auf der Bühne ausgebrochen ist – und das hat er irgendwann nicht mehr abschalten können. Irgendwann war diese Figur größer als er selbst. Morrison hat sich viel mit Literatur beschäftigt und wollte ein authentischer Poet sein. Für sein Verständnis, musste ein Poet leiden oder Leid erlebt haben. Auf diesem Selbstverständnis basierend hat er viele Gedichte geschrieben. Außerdem war Morrison sehr interessiert an indianischer Kultur, hat auch länger bei Indianern gelebt. Der Mann, der sich selber einen "Rock-Schamanen" nannte, hat in seiner Kindheit eine starke traumatische Erfahrung mit Indianern gemacht. Er wurde als kleiner 4-jähriger Junge Zeuge eines schweren Verkehrsunfalls, bei dem etliche indianische Wanderarbeiter ums Leben gekommen sind und hat dieses Trauma in seinen Songs und Gedichten verarbeitet. Zum Beispiel auch in dem Gedichtband "An American Prayer“. Er wurde 78 auf dem gleichnamigen Doors Album veröffentlicht. In "Dawn's Highway" erzählt Jim Morrison sehr detailliert von diesem grauenhaften Ereignis und beschreibt, wie die Seelen der toten Indianer seine Seele besetzen, die Zeit seines Lebens in ihm wirken sollen. Doch Morrisons Vater soll ihm gesagt haben, dass er das alles so nicht erlebt habe, ja nur geträumt hätte. Für ein Kind unverständlich – die Ebenen der Realität und des Traums können so durcheinandergeraten sein. Im Song "Peace Frog" thematisiert er diese traumatische Kindheitserinnerung. "Für mein Gefühl hat diese Geschichte sein Lebensthema ausgelöst, dass er immer wieder betrachtet. Es gibt ganz viele Songs der Doors oder Gedichte, die Jim Morrison geschrieben hat, die sich mit diesem Thema beschäftigen und immer ist der Grundtenor Leid." (SWR1 Musikredakteurin Katharina Heinius über Jim Morrisons Kindheitstrauma) Morrisons früher Tod Morrison stirbt mit 27 Jahren in Paris im Jahr 1971, seine damalige Freundin Pamela Courson findet ihn in der Badewanne. Er ist auf dem Friedhof Père Lachaise beigesetzt worden. Es gab nie eine Obduktion, letztlich ist demnach nicht bekannt, was die tatsächliche Todesursache ist. Der Arzt hat damals den Herzstillstand als Todesursache vermerkt. Doch Courson und Morrison unterliegen beide einem exzessiven Drogenkonsum. Auch sie stirbt 3 Jahre später in Kalifornien im Alter von 27 Jahren an einer Überdosis Heroin. "Morrison Hotel" – Ein Meilenstein der Musikgeschichte Was 1969 zum Streit zwischen John Lennon und den Doors geführt hat, die Entstehungsgeschichte der Band und ihres dazugehörigen Bandnamens, was es damit auf sich hat, dass die Doors für das Platten-Cover von "Morrison Hotel" verklagt wurden und $1000 Strafe zahlen mussten – darüber und mehr, wird in dieser Epidsode gesprochen. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Morrison Hotel" wird im Podcast gesprochen (03:24) – "Roadhouse Blues"(16:14) – "Waiting for the Sun"(22:27) – "Peace Frog"(26:30) – "You Make Me Real"(32:02) – "Queen of the Highway"(37:15) – "Land Ho!"__________ Über diese Songs wird außerdem im Podcast gesprochen (13:55) – "Roadhouse Blues"-Cover von Status Quo (Klaus Doldinger) von Udo Lindenberg __________ Shownotes The Doors - Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970: https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/100950-000-A/the-doors-live-at-the-isle-of-wight-festival-1970/ Jim Morrison: Die letzten Tage in Paris: https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/100171-000-A/jim-morrison-die-letzten-tage-in-paris/ Trailer zu Classic Albums "Morrison Hotel" auf dem YouTube-Kanal der Doors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxSTucTLo8w __________ Buchtipps "Die Doors, Jim Morrison und ich" von Ray Manzarek, Kirsten Borchardt (Übersetzung): http://www.hannibal-verlag.de/cgi-bin/WebObjects/TXTSVHannibal2.woa/640/wo/CULgQtJHNIi32bw00RW1A2yJwkg/2.0.SuperPage.11.1.5.1.1.11.1.1.1.0.BoxArticleSmall.1.13.0 "Mein Leben mit Jim Morrison und den Doors" von John Densmore, Rainer Moddemann (Übersetzung): http://www.hannibal-verlag.de/cgi-bin/WebObjects/TXTSVHannibal2.woa/640/wo/CULgQtJHNIi32bw00RW1A2yJwkg/5.0.SuperPage.11.1.5.1.1.11.1.1.1.0.BoxArticleSmall.1.1.0 __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Robby Krieger On Live At The Matrix 1967: The Original MastersThe Doors were a few months away from stardom in March 1967 when they played five sparsely attended shows at a small club in San Francisco called The Matrix. These uninhibited performances would have been fleeting if not for Peter Abram, who co-owned  the pizza parlor-turned-nightclub with Jefferson Airplane founder Marty Balin. An avid recordist, Abram taped concerts at The Matrix regularly and his recordings of The Doors, made between March 7-11, 1967, spawned one of the band's most storied bootlegs.  At long last, all known Matrix recordings, sourced entirely from Abram's original master recordings, will be released on September 8.Bootlegs of The Matrix shows have circulated among fans for years and were popular despite the poor audio quality of most copies. The sound began improving in 1997 when the first two songs from The Matrix shows were officially released on The Doors: Box Set. Even more performances followed in 2008 on Live at the Matrix 1967; regrettably, it was discovered soon after that all the recordings were sourced from third-generation tapes, not the originals. Today, Abram's original recordings have been remastered by Bruce Botnick, The Doors' longtime engineer/mixer, for official release. The vinyl version of LIVE AT THE MATRIX 1967: THE ORIGINAL MASTERS includes all 37 songs from the shows sourced from the master tapes. Except for 15 songs released in 2017 and 2018 as Record Store Day exclusives, most of the newly upgraded live recordings are making their debut in the collection, including eight that have never been featured on any of the previous Matrix releases.It's easy to understand the enduring appeal of these vintage performances by Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore. Recorded only a few months before “Light My Fire” propelled the band to worldwide success, the tapes capture The Doors playing a wide range of songs, including several from their self-titled debut, like “Break On Through,” “Soul Kitchen,” and “The End.” They also performed half the songs destined for the group's soon-to-be-recorded second album, Strange Days, including early performances of “Moonlight Drive” and “People Are Strange.” 15 Sets of music over five nights at The Matrix gave the band time to indulge its love of the blues with extended covers of “I'm A King Bee” and “Crawling King Snake.” The Doors even delivered an instrumental version of “Summertime.” These special moments all contribute to making Live at The Matrix, 1967all the more fascinating and important, as it showcases The Doors as the nascent struggling young band they were. Let's get deeper inside this box set's music, shall we?Source: https://store.rhino.com/en/rhino-store/artiHost Maggie LePique, a radio veteran since the 1980's at NPR in Kansas City Mo.

Today we have a fun follow-up to last week's episode with Johnny Echols from the band Love. This week we'll hear Rick interview the last two living members of The Doors—guitarist Robby Krieger and drummer John Densmore—about coming up in the LA rock scene alongside the band Love, who The Doors idolized and then later eclipsed. The Doors formed in 1965 and burned white-hot, releasing six albums in five years, until the death of their larger than life lead singer, Jim Morrison. In their brief time as a band, The Doors quickly became one of the biggest acts of the late 60s. Their anti flower-power appeal was accentuated by Jim Morrison's heavy, brooding lyrics, and keyboardist Ray Manzarek's frenzied organ licks. On today's episode Rick Rubin talks to Robby Krieger and John Densmore about their tumultuous history with Jim Morrison—who John refers to as a “Kamikaze drunk.” Both Robbie and John recall LSD-fueled stories from their early gigs with The Doors. And the role Acapulco Gold played in Jim Morrison's songwriting process. Hear a playlist of all of our favorite Doors songs HERE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
