We’re saddened to hear of the passing of Bob Masse

We’re saddened to hear of the passing of Bob Masse, one of the great poster artists of the psychedelic era.

Bob created some of The Doors’ most memorable concert artwork of the 1960s, including posters for the band’s Vancouver shows in 1967 and the Los Angeles Forum in 1968.

Looking back on his L.A. years, Bob called his Doors Forum poster one of his favorite pieces. He remembered Jim Morrison being “in fine form that night.”

His artwork helped give the music of the era a visual identity that has lasted for generations.

Rest in peace, Bob.

"Dangerous equates to excitement... The fans came

"Dangerous equates to excitement... The fans came in the thousands to Doors concerts looking for danger and excitement. Jim was always reading the room and knew how far to push the envelope..." – Bruce Botnick

Curated by Krieger, Densmore, and original engineer Bruce Botnick, this 16-song release brings together newly remixed performances from NYC, Philly, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and LA, with the majority recorded in 1970. “Soul Kitchen” is the lone exception, coming from the second show July 21, 1969, at the Aquarius Theatre in Hollywood.

Available October 23rd as a 2-Lp set pressed on translucent red vinyl, CD, Pure Audio Blu-ray (with Dolby Atmos, Quad & Hi-Res audio), and all streaming platforms.
