About this album

The Best Of The Doors is a strong overview of a band that fused blues rock, psychedelia and classic rock into one of the defining sounds of the late 1960s. Drawing from landmark songs such as Light My Fire, People Are Strange, Love Me Two Times, Roadhouse Blues and Riders on the Storm, the compilation traces the group’s range from breakout singles to heavier, more nocturnal album favourites. The Doors’ dramatic vocals, Ray Manzarek’s keyboard lines, Robby Krieger’s guitar and John Densmore’s fluid drumming are all central to the band’s enduring appeal. As a career-spanning introduction, it highlights why their catalogue remains a touchstone of American rock.
