haha he said "I'm Robbie Krieger from The Byrds " 😆

The Doors is one of those bands that crosses the divide and will always be listened too just like The Beatles, truly Iconic.

All the stories are like yeh Jim was late/drunk/high/in jail - (then nailed the track!)

Fighting with Hell’s Angels sounds like something only Morrison would do.

I'm glad John and Robby are friends again. It shouldn't have been different anyway.

Densmore is such a great drummer and Krieger is such a great guitarist/songwriter...

These men are. LEGENDS. Celebrate them.

They were ahead of times, especially Jim Morrison...that's one of the reason their music is still relevant today.

This is fantastic. It's so great to see these guys now. Every member of this band are so unique musically. Love the 5000 Densmore Ave. sign. Long live The Doors! Thanks for making this happen!

Robby's voice is soothing it helps me to fall asleep. 😀

What integrity this John Densmore had towards Jim's vision and estate. Much love to John. Even more admirable today when everything is a money grab venture. Respect.

Gosh the doors are my absolute most favorite 60s band. Im 42 and discovered the doors as a baby my dad would play his records. Id do anything to go back to my early teens. Would have been so amazing to be there back then and catch a show at the whiskey.

Densmore is still as cool as ever. I'm looking forward to this record hitting my turntable!

Ray was/so cool. I always loved his stories.

please keep telling these stories time keeps marching on and these great memories need to be told .. long live The Doors

I love Robbie Krieger's sense of humour.

My favorite Band of all time Robbie is a great guy humble and has a great sense of humor John helped teach me to play drums off the records they made.The doors will live on Forever.

Awesome. Just watching the '68 Hollywood Bowl show on Amazon right now, and got to wondering if Densmore was still alive! I knew Krieger was, but I couldn't recall if he was the last man standing! What a pair of legends. Twenty years ago, or a wee bit more, The Doors changed my life. CIA "social-engineering" band or not..... I know people decry it for their own reasons, but "Waiting for the Sun" started my education in proper musicianship.

These two artists along with fellow artist Ray Manzerek were the heart and soul of the Doors. No other artists could have filled their shoes and do what they did to create the most unique one of a kind rock band ever.

To me, these guys were the soundtrack to Los Angeles 1967-1997.....never will be days like that ever again

Jim fought some hell's angels.A miracle he survived that.

Los quiero mucho desde Chiquimula, Guatemala un abrazo mis abuelos del rock gracias a Dios están vivos aun!! Los quiero mis reliquias un abrazo...

I love The Doors and their music. I'm a generation X and The Doors music was and is a part of the soundtrack to my life along with The Beatles, The Stones, Dylan, Jefferson Airpalane, Buffalo Springfield, Canned Heat! etc. etc. so much good music back then. Early 90's were pretty good for rock n roll too: Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, The Black Crowes, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, Beck, Soundgarden, et. al. I love the music from the 60's era especially '65-70'...🎵👉✌️. I play drums myself and have been in and out of bands since I was 15. I can sing somewhat. I've sang Doors, Sinatra, and Dylan at karaoke before. good times!

Ray's keyboard bass definitely helped give the band a unique sound. It added to the hypnotic quality of the music.

Jim was one real interesting guy.

Happy Birthday John 1/12/21,from a doors fan in Australia

Still have my DOORS records, including, "Other Voices" & "Full Circle."

I love these guys they are so rebellious I had the chance to speak with these guys before

Thanks Robby and John ❤️

John's book is a must read. 👌 He signed it for me , so maybe I'm prejudiced, but really good 👍

Getting old but love these guys. Thanks for playing in Chatham.

Just when I thought I heard all the stories already - John and especially Robby bring out some new material :)

So cool that you present those Legends to us, cant wait for VMP Doors edition!

What can I say?! I love this band! Love their sound!

Jim was on a lot of stuff man, I’m 13 and I listen to all there music I love listening to his music ♥️😎

As a Doors fan this was fantastic new information I hadn’t yet heard!

Bob Dylan, hit these boys up for a collab!!!!!

If they both like Bob Dylan.. Why in the world have they not collabed? The Dylan Doors would be awesome!.. (how could a music executive not tried to put that together over the last 40 years?.. It could have been huge)

Thank you for this!

I always loved the Doors ...a magic Band ...."Riders on the storm "

Very cool you guys did this.

The Soft Parade has now begun, listen to the engines hum, people out to have some fun

How did Jim Morrison ever teach himself how to sing without a single singing lessons? Amazing

I would love to hear Dylan play with these guys!

John Densmore, mi baterista favorito. Sutil y creativo, aporta a las canciones justo lo que necesitan. Es alucinante que empezaran a hacer tan buenísimas canciones sin apenas experiencia con los instrumentos ni haber ensayado mucho. Robbie no llevaba ni un año tocando la guitarra eléctrica cuando ya estaban grabando canciones que son eternas. Es simplemente mágico. Cuánto talento tenían los cuatro juntos.

Glad for their ongoing vids of the real stories! Light My Fire still takes me bk to gr school & seeing TheDoors on TheSmothersBrothers.

It was a surprise that this record was the new essentials pick but I'm so excited for it

These two are awesome, just awesome. Fantastic post.

Best Band Ever!

Love these guys

If either of you fantastically humble yet incendiary men might read this, I have a professional background in proscenium stage dance but ran away to join the cirque du soliel and currently preform random acts of construction to support my daughters…. But I have a beautiful and dark concept for a theatrical piece to An American Prayer that, I feel, is more poignant and necessary than ever. I’ve tried many different ways to make contact, but they have never born fruit.

Really appreciated your live percussive rendition of “The Listening Wind” Mr Densmore. Respect 😎

Five years of magic. You guys were great. The End

Jim will never die. He is as large as Elvis

Densmore and Bruce Dern are like the same guy lol

"Light My Fire" is the first song I remember ever hearing and remembering. "Purple Haze" the second...

Favorite band of all time

Saw Robbie 2 years ago! Iconic virtuoso!

I did not want this to end. There must be more.

Rest in peace Jim and Ray.

The doors were known to be a great improv band who had to follow jims whims....so maybe dylan could work ...hes known to play his songs differently every night. Id love to hear the doors with dylan

So dope

The Doors did early fusion stuff (for instance, the end). Sadly they are just not credited for it. Surely Tony Williams and Herbie Hancock agree with me ;).

Fucking love it.

Densmore has a U-Turn Audio Orbit turntable. Cool!

The best rock and roll band all the times iconics

Wow, Jim called having taken 'too much'!! In Paris he needed to do the same, but........a bit hard living there. Jim could always prior come through, he never lost his talent...just delayed sometimes.!!

Never considered before they didn’t have a bass player. Thanks for this interview!

They actually DID have session bass players for the albums.. Ray only used the organ bass thing on the first album and in concerts. Larry Knechtel - The Doors (Two songs) Doug Lubahn - Strange Days Lubahn, Kerry Magness, Leroy Vinnegar - Waiting for the Sun Lubahn, Harvey Brooks - The Soft Parade Ray Neapolitan, Lonnie Mack - Morrison Hotel Jerry Scheff - LA Woman Apparently Doug Lubahn was invited to join the band but he declined.

Two best California bands The beachboys and of course The Doors.

Fantastic...

Purtroppo non esistono più i musicisti come voi Unfortunately, there are no more musicians like you

The only bleeding great and original thing ever to come out of L.A.

3:48 the magic is still here

Liked the story about "When the music is over". Jim did it in one take.

Didn’t show up to the 3rd rehearsal because he got into a bar fight with hells angels 😄 Morrison was fucking nuts

Thank you.

I like how both of them said they would like to play with Bob Dylan the most

Love this band til i die

The best!!!!!!

I love you all 🥰

How does John sound and act 15 years younger than chilled out Rob?

the Birds , the Doors who the hell knows anymore

Hello John, do you still have your drum equipment,....... cymbals, snares toms,.... from your time with the doors? Drumming regards from Bavaria Germany

dope

john first invited bill wolf for the guitarist audition ahead of robby krieger. would love to hear from john about bill wolf. what happened to him... was he a better guitarist than robby krieger...both robby and bill wolf were in the same band psychedelic rangers along with john and grant...

wish we could hear from Mary

i thought i loved lsd the most in the world but now i see it was jim

Alot of rock bands in the world but with the Doors you know your not in a simulated universe

why the hell aren't both of them doing performances together anymore?

Why is John into doing stuff under the doors name now but denied us anything from the doors when Ray was alive

can we get some better questions at this point? same old questions and stories

John..were you in St. Thomas a few months ago ???

Haven’t they found any decent questions for these guys by now???

Which band did Robby mention when asked which modern band resemble the Doors?

It's a shame what happened to the relationship between these guys after Morrison died, I feel that the crux of it all was when the Morrison/ Courson family got ownership of Jim's side of the business. I mean, I can understand Jim's family getting something but come on The Coursons?? Then Densmore went to them when he wanted a tour ( which he was invited to join and initially gave his blessing), in order that they put a stop to the name being used. Later on even the drummer from The Police sued Ray and Robbie for earnings lost after he had an accident, absolutely disgraceful behaviour. I was introduced to the Doors through the movie and ok, after then going back to the real Doors and looking at them, I realise the movie may be exaggerated , however, how are new generations supposed to hear old bands if there isn't some kind of exploitation .......and is it even exploitation ??, I think these guys have been rich and famous for so long they forget that working in Tesco full-time is massive exploitation , not selling a few more albums because you let an advert use your music..........

3:47

Bob, call me...

So Jim Morrison was a man who couldn’t control his drug intake. Do you think he is happier than us now?

I'm the few if only Artists/Rapper/EDM tech who references the Doors in most if not all my music... Jim was an amazing lyricist and each one of the band members had a style that was meant to be.
