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.

Agreed, the band's attempts at poetry are bad. But when the Doors wrote and played 2-4 minute ROCK songs, they put out a fine body of music. Break on Through ... Soul Kitchen ... Crystal Ship ... Alabama Song ... End of the Night ... People Are Strange ... My Eyes Have Seen You ... You're Lost Little Girl ,,, The Unknown Soldier ,,, Spanish Caravan ... Summer's Almost Gone ... Roadhouse Blues... Peace Frog ... Changeling ... L.A. Woman ... and on and on.

Skip Celebration of the Lizard, American Prayer and all that stuff. The best of the Doors is the rock and blues stuff they created.

I'm afraid this went over some posters heads.

RIP Phillip Seymour

Fact de jour, Alabama Song (aka Whiskey Song) was not a Doors original. It was written in the 30's.
