    Keg DUH, we live in 2019, we’ve seen what drummers can do by now. but we’re talking about someone who made music around the 60’s. Think of another band at the time to incorporate Bossa Nova into a popular Rock song. John Densmore deserves more credit than he receives.

    Absolutely. Ray, John and Robbie were/are all underrated, immensely talented musicians. They each understood that Jim Morrison was the band's frontman. And Jim never let that go to his head in terms of him being thought of as virtually the whole of The Doors. However, in my opinion, it wasn't until after Jim Morrison died that Robbie, John and Ray began receiving proper recognition for their musicianship.

    You are right, something happened with him with the years, then they began to use a bassist on live shows. He was a very good keyboardist, and transformed blues into something new, refreshing, unique sound and feel. But every good blues or jazz piano player should have the ability to play more intricate left hand bass lines. And yes I love Ray.

He is not just a drummer but a phenomenal percussionist. Ray Manzarek play the bass chords on that little piano bass and keep time with Densmore and then run away with those organ rifts he is not talented man he is a freaking genius!

My biggest challenge was the rental kit he used had new skins on it and had not been tuned. Thank God I knew how to tune drums, but it was stressful. I asked Densmore if he was going to get together with the other members for a reunion, he said "Don't think that's going to happen, I'm suing the F@#kers" So many stories about that crazy documentary, Jim Morrison's ghost was everywhere. Just remember, The Doors were all about celebrating the chaos, Jim brought it in spades.

However, I still play accordion and piano and a little guitar. I'm thinking about a sax to break things up a bit now that I'm retired. Doors are my #1 group although I love all kinds of music.

    One of the things that you have to understand about this song and this album - and the time period is the Hi Fidelity aspect. In stereo. For many of us, myself included, this is the first time we heard rock or any kind of music on good stereo systems. The equipment we were listening on up until that time was handheld Japanese transistor radios or am car radios in mono, with very poor fidelity. Or a television with one 5 inch speaker I still remember the day in about 67, I was 14, when I went over to my friend's house and he played break on through on the first good stereo system I ever heard. It blew my mind. I was astonished. I could not believe how fantastic it sounded. All we had was cell phone quality audio up until that point, and then here is the Doors man, with big stereo speakers, rattling the walls. You really have to know the time period in order to appreciate what happened with this music.

    When they started recording the different beats & different ways of playing. 1967 in a way was a time of change for music. Jim also sang in a masculine way. That's why he's to be admired as a male vocalist. Also making reference to the type of MIC that Frank Sinatra used. Jim Morrison might of been flamboyant in life style. He was intelligent & well informed about current events.

    Most people forget Jim was not a musician but a poet turned singer who loved Blues, totally into theater. Ray, Robby & John were the musical side & the four of them were the perfect band. Nobody could have taken Jim's place even though it was discussed. Jim wanted to kick John out due to personality conflicts. Ray disuaded him. Before John there were no drummers of his league in Rock. Robby is criminally under-rated guitarist & underappreciated. Ray's keyboard is GREAT!

    This is how great music is made. Little Ray Charles. Little Bosa Nova (similar to the beat in What'd I say, but not the same), Guitar from a different song, Vocals influenced by Frank Sinatra. Some distortion and a little more power than all those other influences. Phenomenal. I think modern music misses the collaboration of a band. Each member was trying to sound like a different thing. As a result, you sound like nothing. You sound original.

    I feel as a Doors fan every member of the group there’s a lot of credit, there’s a reason why the doors exist, they were the first psychedelic group that item here is a teenager and ever since then I’ve always loved them but I love each and every member of the group individually, they all contribute something to the doors. I personally think they’re very unappreciated group. Everyone knows Jim Morrison. He’s a very iconic image into the rock ‘n’ roll industry but what about the other members of the group the drummer, the guitar player and the keyboard no one ever talks about the other three members of the group they always talk about Jim Morrison. I personally knowledge all four members of the group not just one the doors are not complete without each and every member of the group. I’ll tell you this people it’s just woman’s opinion, knowledge, and every four members of the group. I love you Doors very much, and I always well, let’s continue to keep the music alive for the younger generation. Thank you.
