The Doors? Jim Morrison? He's a drunken buffoon posing as a poet. Give me The Guess Who. They got the courage to be drunken buffoons, which makes them poetic.

I was a big fan at 15 or so. I still like them, and listen to them, just not as much anymore.
In no order:

Roadhouse Blues
Peace Frog
The End(especially the live one "don't wanna die in an automobile, I wanna lay in an open field...)
LA Woman
The Soft Parade

Not a hard 5, just some of my favorites.

Casual fan.

Cool story bro: My first year in NYC, I went to see a Doors cover band play downtown (don't know why, but a friend wanted to see them). Got thrown out of the bar for being too drunk and possibly smoking a cigarette that may have contained an illegal substance. Place was so crowded, I was able to sneak back in about 5 minutes later.

Anybody ever listen to The End cranked up with earbuds/headphones on?

The beginning chopper riff hops from ear to ear. Check it out.

Almost Famous did for the Doors what Lebowski & Sideways did for the Eagles & Merlot.

I remember as a kid buying Soft Parade with the scant money in pocket...going home, putting on the vinyl and thinking WTF?!!? But I'm still a bigtime Manzarek fan. He was an inventor, legend, and the key piece to their sound.

My LSU roommate's dad was a Navy pilot. His commanding officer was Admiral Morrison. True story.

Jim Morrison was a punk. Another artist that became some kind of cult figure due to his death. (see cobain)


That said, Ray Manzarek was legit.

Five To One, Love Me Two Times, and the Alabama Song/Backdoor man medley they did in their live concerts aren't far behind.
