Rolling Stone writer invites you to kick him in the ass, but…

“You can kick me in the ass for saying this (I don’t mind): this is the Doors’ greatest album and (including their first) the best album so far this year. A landmark worthy of dancing in the streets.” –Robert Meltzer for Rolling Stone on “L.A. Woman”

Mojo Magazine On The Doors’ Magic

“They caught the sense of dread and menace that hung in the air like gunsmoke, and they did it with hypnotic cool.” –MOJO, December 1997.

Jim Morrison on his inspiration

“You can’t predict what’s going to happen. You just have to go with it. We’re trying to project our music, us, our ideas. Our ideas are in the songs, in the music.” –Jim Morrison
