I get that they’re not the best and overrated by 16 year olds who just smoked their first J, but I don’t get the hate.

That's Steve Miller band, I think.

I don't know man, I think they get huge respect for that time period, like a spot or two after Stones/Zep/Beatles.

Doors are like hendrix they don’t make bland music like kiss/ AC/DC. Kind of hard to appreciate what they did. I’m a big fan but I can understand some of the dislike

I've always liked The Doors. Their studio albums were good, but their live stuff is incredible. You never knew what Morrison would do in a live show.

No One Here Gets Out Alive is a great biography of Morrison.

Internet hipsters hate real organs and love synthesizers and sampled beats

They're for some people. I like their music.

A lot of people dont get into Ray Manzarek's keyboard sound either.

I had all of their albums, but their "Absolutely Live" is a must have for those who enjoy live albums.

ETA: I can remember exactly where I was when news came over the radio that Jim Morrison had died.

If anybody knows anything about sucking, it's David Crosby. C,S, N, and Y are some of the most insufferable, whiny, douche bags in the history of popular music.

Don't have to look far on the Internet to find bad spellers and BS opinions. All the Doors did was make a helluva lot of great songs with one of the most distinctive voices in rock history. Who cares what David Crosby says anyway?

I’ve decided that I’m not going to slag the Doors anymore
It just doesn’t feel good …some people are hurt or pissed by it …others agree but …all in all …it just doesn’t feel right any more so….let’s discuss our disgusting prez
