LA Woman (singular) is a song about the city of Los Angles as if it were a woman. "I see your Hair is Burnin'," refers to the Fires that occur in the Hollywood Hills area, due the Hot, Santa Anna winds that happen every year that cause these destructive fires. One of The Doors greatest songs. From way back in 1967. Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix all died at age 27, and were Rock stars from the same time period. They will forever be known as members of "The 27 Club." So much talent gone so quickly.

"Mr Mojo Risin" is an anagram, with the same letters as the name "Jim Morrison"... The band members met in and around Venice Beach, mainly as students at nearby UCLA. I am a helLA native myself, but was only 13 when Jim died, so never saw them in concert. I did see Jimi H, who died at the same age as Jim and Janis J: all members of the "27 club" that also took Amy Winehouse decades later.

The Doors were among the most controversial & influential rock acts of the 1960s, mostly due to Jim Morrison's lyrics & voice. They had a lot of hits including "The End", "Light My Fire", "Break On Through (To The Other Side)", "Love Me Two Times", "L.A. Woman", "People Are Strange", "Hello, I Love You", "Touch Me", "The Unknown Soldier", "Roadhouse Blues", "Love Her Madly", "Riders On The Storm". Sadly Jim Morrison died in 1971 at the age of only 27 but left a great legacy of music.

John Densmore was a jazz drummer. Ray Manzarek was a classically trained keyboardist. Robbie Krieger was a flamenco guitarist, who had started playing acoustic guitar shortly before the Doors first formed. As a matter of fact, he was brand new to the electric guitar, but never played with a pick because he was so comfortable with his fingerstyle training. And Jim Morrison was really more of a poet and experimental, avant-garde artist than a singer at first. And he was incredibly shy. None of them were what you might expect a rock star to be. But combine all of those chemicals together, and KA-POW! Nobody sounded like them - they were weird and deep and funny and scary all at once, and are still instantly recognizable today.

@mochs3869 2 жыл бұрын

And Jerry Scheff (though not a Door) started out on Tuba and moved to jazz bass in the 60s. He was Elvis Presley's live bassist and dropped in to play on this album in between Elvis gigs - the only time they use an actual bass on a studio album. He wrote about his experience recording this in his book "Way Down".

There is an interview where Jim pretty much predicted modern music before the technology was even available. He saw where it was going. If he were alive today, there's a good chance their music would sound nothing like the 60's-early70's Doors. He wasn't resisting change, he was embracing it, he wanted to experiment with electronic music. He died much too soon, but it really wasn't going to end any other way with him.

One of the last great masterpieces from the Doors as they drove headlong into oblivion. Just as they managed to become a stronger, tighter, unit at the end of their scorched run. The raw, ragged, vocals. The free wheeling instrumentals capturing the last of their magic before Jim would escape into the ether. Even 5o years later, this music still sounds powerful and leaves us wanting more. R.I.P. Jim and Ray.

well said... it was quite the coda for morrison.... he reminded me of ali in manila. past his prime, but for this last album, he conjured up all his experiences & put all his heart & poetic soul into one last ballz to the wall statement. he was in his prime in '68, but the wisdom in this album makes it different and special. riders is even more special imo. many in the indust got too caught up in his persona, looks and trouble making to overlook what a unique angle he could put into music when it came together. morrison wasnt as consistent as some of his peers like jagger, plant, but he was more dangerous and willing to scale the wall moreso then them. again, when it came together at different moments in their career, their currency was strong & quite the wild card. you wont ever see anyone in his mold again. truly singular.

"L.A. woman, Sunday afternoon..." The Doors give you several vibes in one song. They recorded many sixties classics, from "Light My Fire" in 1967 to "Riders on the Storm" in 1971. The Doors took their name from the 1954 book "The Doors of Perception" written by Aldous Huxley about his psychedelic experience under the influence of mescaline. Huxley also wrote the 1932 dystopian science fiction novel "Brave New World" which you might have read in school. When you're ready for more from The Doors, check out some of these gems -- "Strange Days", "Love Her Madly", "Hello, I Love You", "Five to One", "Peace Frog", "Break On Through (To the Other Side)", "People Are Strange", "Soul Kitchen", "Love Me Two Times", "The End" along with many others.

According to Densmore, after the band finished the song, Morrison wrote down 'Mr. Mojo Risin" on a paper and "takes the letters and starts making arrows and writing the letters all twisted around, and it spells 'Jim Morrison'."

Roadhouse Blues is a must

Nobody will give Jim an award for the "prettiness" of his singing here but the point was made by Bruce Botnick the engineer and co-producer of the album: Jim liked the old bluesman like Muddy Waters and Howlin Wolf. He was about raw expression like the old blues tunes they were channeling on this album. This one hits you in the gut and never lets you go...the raw emotions are deep.

The mix of this sing is actually a performance. They played it all in one take. Morrison was drunk off his ass. That's why it sounds rough in some spots but definitely a great tune.

Fun Fact- Jerry Scheff the Bass player was the Bass player for Elvis, when Jim found out he freaked out, as he was a huge Elvis fan and was like a fan boy with the stories he was telling while they were in between breaks when they were recording the song..

Spent a lot of time in LA?! They are FROM LA! It's Jim's loveletter to where The Doors were born!! Funny & interesting factoid, the line Mr. Mojo Risin' is an anagram for Jim Morrison! Great tune!

Asia, when you said that it reminds you of like Charlie Brown music, that blew my mind because once I listen to it, the music has such a high resemblance to the peanuts cartoons music, high energy and non-stop, and I've listened to this song literally hundreds of times and never realized that until now

The genius of the song to me is it’s totally LA IMO, perfect for driving the hills in a fast car. But there’s this swampy, backwoods juke joint feel to it, like you could hear the place rocking from across the water and if you didn’t mind wet boots you could experience it up close. There’s an aggressive mysticism in his voice, if that makes sense. Puts you on edge a little.

When you said it sounds like Charlie Brown music, that's a very big compliment. Accomplished jazz composer and musician Vince Guaraldi composed and performed all of the music for the classic Peanuts television shows. And there were definitely parts in this song that showcase of the jazzier side of the Doors. What made the Doors music so unique, was how different all of the members musical influences were.

I think too what she was getting out was the transitional nature of the composition & in each bridge, the keys set a new tone & led the passage sound wise.... the doors at their best were one of the all time best rock bands in doing that. its why their longer pieces are so powerful. its like a 3 act play.
