The Ultimate Doors Companion
"It's a great book. Not only this book is an appreciation of The Doors, but it's a book The Doors themselves will appreciate. The mystery and inspiration of every Doors song is probed and explored. It's about time a book like this was written in this depth".
Danny Sugerman
In an era when the three-minute pop single ruled the music world, The Doors stood proud as practitioners of album art. From beginning to end, the band's six studio album presented carefully-crafted sound tapestries, with the music of Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore woven around the unique lyrics of Jim Morrison.
For the first time The Ultimate Doors Companion considers the bad's artistic vision and influences. Taking each album in turn, it discusses the lyrical and musical patterms that shaped the songs, the recording sessions that spawned them and the cultural environment in which the work was created.
