Issued in 1974, it moves beyond his band’s psychedelic rock into a looser blend of jazz-rock, blues-rock and improvisation, with instrumental passages that give his keyboards more room to roam. The record reflects Manzarek’s fascination with Eastern imagery, spiritual themes and free-flowing studio experimentation, making it one of his most distinctive post-Doors releases. For listeners drawn to adventurous 1970s rock that stretches towards jazz without losing its pulse, it remains a fascinating detour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Ray Manzarek\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mercury-records-record-label\"\u003eMercury\u003c\/a\u003e – 6338 493\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1974\"\u003e1974\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/blues-rock\"\u003eBlues Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/jazz-rock\"\u003eJazz-Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+He+Can't+Come+Today\"\u003eHe Can'T Come Today\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+Solar+Boat\"\u003eSolar Boat\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+Downbound+Train\"\u003eDownbound Train\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+The+Golden+Scarab\"\u003eThe Golden Scarab\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+The+Purpose+Of+Existence+Is?\"\u003eThe Purpose Of Existence Is?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+The+Moorish+Idle\"\u003eThe Moorish Idle\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+Choose+Up+And+Choose+Off\"\u003eChoose Up And Choose Off\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Ray+Manzarek+Oh+Thou+Precious+Nectar+Filled+Form+(Or)+A+Little+Fart\"\u003eOh Thou Precious Nectar Filled Form (Or) A Little Fart\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Mercury","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44007356596289,"sku":"6662176","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/MC0zMTg0LmpwZWc.jpg?v=1781464887","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/ray-manzarek-the-golden-scarab-367344","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
