The Doors: Robby Krieger and John Densmore | Broken Record (Hosted by Rick Rubin)

- Today we have a fun follow-up to last week’s episode with Johnny Echols from the band Love. This week we’ll hear Rick interview the last two living members of The Doors-guitarist Robby Krieger and drummer John Densmore-about coming up in the LA rock scene alongside the band Love, who The Doors idolized and then later eclipsed.
The Doors formed in 1965 and burned white-hot, releasing six albums in five years, until the death of their larger than life lead singer, Jim Morrison. In their brief time as a band, The Doors quickly became one of the biggest acts of the late 60s. Their anti flower-power appeal was accentuated by Jim Morrison’s heavy, brooding lyrics, and keyboardist Ray Manzarek’s frenzied organ licks.
On today’s episode Rick Rubin talks to Robby Krieger and John Densmore about their tumultuous history with Jim Morrison-who John refers to as a “Kamikaze drunk.” Both Robbie and John recall LSD-fueled stories from their early gigs with The Doors. And the role Acapulco Gold played in Jim Morrison’s songwriting process.

This interview is pure gold. A flawless victory. Thank you, Rick !!! 🖤
When was this interview? Great stuff - thanks!
Delighted with the interview, legendary, brilliant !!
Morrison Hotel is one of the greatest rock records in history. Period.
And water is wet.
My favorite is Weird Scenes Inside the Gold Mine
Strange Days is my personal favorite but honestly....I love their whole catalog
@@warborn_inc. I'm with you in that one👍👍👍
Waiting for the Sun is my no.1.
Anyone notice how Robbie and John can communicate without interrupting each other or trying to dominate the conversation? It's like they are doing Doors music when they talk.
Wow, great point!!!!
They were operating in the bardo
Awesome observation
They always said their playing together was as if all 4 had a psychic connection
That’s how me and my friend of 11 years are in our band. We just communicate and mesh with each other.
Doors records are still fresh and raw.Timeless and epic.
How can Jim Die when He is Immortal?
Epically produced by other people. These were the original talentless boy bands.
@@brerabbit4233 You need mental help.
Nice to see some truth posted! The Doors forever never be another band like this!
@@nathanwright2721 There never will be 'popular-music' in general like what we experienced in the 60's...
Why John Densmore is NOT thought to be one of the greatest Rock drummers of all times is totally beyond me: Great timing with very creative impulses. Plus, playing (most of the time) with no bass player made him truly the 'heartbeat' of the band.
John is a technical drummer. I think he went mostly straight. Maybe he should have puffed on Jim's Acupulco.
Plus he played the best press roll since Art Blakey
Yes, a jazz drummer who found his way into an incredible trio + shaman = Bam.
Because he was jealous of Jim at every point. A drummer can be replaced.
@@lgoler mitch Mitchell says hi
The Doors are one of the greatest bands we've ever had, 🎤🎹🥁🎷🎺🎺🎺🎸🎸🎸
Densmore was such an unassuming but integral component in the band. The way he punctuated jims vocals and played for the songs , just amazing
True underrated drummer. To bad he had to be a pain to Robby and Ray when they tried to revive the Doors in the early 2000s
Agreed, I feel like his importance to the band is often overlooked. His book Riders On The Storm is an excellent account of the band and their career if you haven't read it.
@@sterlingcooper3978 I think he had good reasons to do so. Honestly, if anything they should have done a tour in Storytellers format like they did on VH1, play the hits with one singer from that show that would have went on the road with them and have crowd q & a and stories between the songs.
@@letsplayclassicgames5024 Densmore was asked to be the drummer on the tour but declined. I think he would have objected to a story tellers setting as well with a substitute lead singer. Good guy I'm sure just to idealistic. I'd pay to hear Robby and John with fill ins at keyboard and vocals..wouldn't you?
I agree and its interesting because in my opinion the Doors are most recognized by Jim and Ray ....both had big personalities and their roles domianted the msuic....so to have the 2 players who in my opinion were the true secret weapons of the Doors music here telling stories and both have really sharp memories for guys pushing 80 (no offense meant) its great. These 2 are hands down 2 of the most under appreciated players to come out of that era of music. Really great to hear them talking etc. cheers
Robby Krieger has been a personal friend of mine for decades now. What a humble, classy, generous, and beautiful human being. I actually love this cat.
As an avid listener and serious collector of fine music, I also think that he's one of the greatest guitar players ever! He's also a brilliant songwriter as well.
His style and sound are: fluid, psychedelic, classical, melodic, jazzy, soulful, bluesy, rockin', and fuckin' FUNKY as hell! He also has a truly unique sound and style as well. One of my all-time favorite guitar solos is from the song that he performed on the FULL CIRCLE album called: It Slipped my mind. That shit is so far-out and funky, that he made my big toe shoot up in my boot! He's still putting out awesome music today! His latest album: THE RITUAL BEGINS AT SUNDOWN, is a jazz-rock masterpiece!
Big props to Densmore as well. Also, a versatile and highly skilled player, that always kept the beats and grooves locked tight in the pocket. The jazzy element that he brought to the band made them very unique and special. His playing was the foundation of the bands' music. He's also one of my all-time favorite drummers!
The DOORS is a band that will forever be influential and timeless because the music was so emotional, spiritual, and intelligent.
He's not only one of the greatest guitar players ever! But also one of the greatest songwriters ever! He wrote some of the best and most important Doors hits -- most important being, "Light My Fire" -- which was the first song he ever wrote in his life that turned out to become Doors first #1 hit.
@Shapur Sasan You're correct! How could I forget that? This man is a living icon. Robby Krieger wrote about half of The DOORS songs in their catalog. I will have to edit my comment.
When I first met him as a client at my job, I wasn't a Doors fan, and therefore I didn't know who he was. Although, of course, I had heard of the band.
I guess because I'm a connoisseur of fine music, and he, being who he is, we started talking about music.
I told him that my favorite instrument to listen to was the electric guitar. He told me that he was also a guitar player and had a "little band" out here in LA.
I asked him what was the name of his band. He said:" The DOORS."
I replied:" Oh shit! You're large dude!"
He was so humble about it. This was 1992.
I told him that I was a bluesman. He recommended LA WOMAN. He also invited me to a gig at the Club Lingerie in Hollywood that weekend.
This cat blew my fuckin mind on guitar! I was shocked, at how funky he was. We exchanged numbers before the gig when I hung out with him, and his wife Lynn backstage. We've been friends ever since. And I also really dug LA WOMAN. Especially the songs:cars hiss by my window and The WASP (Robby throws down on one of the baddest guitar solos in recorded history on that joint!) I became a serious student of their work after the release of the Doors 1997 box set.
When I first told Robby back in 1992, that I wasn't a Doors fan, he said "thats alright." He said it with such humility, considering his success. Today, I'm a historian of their art. I'm also a huge fan of their music and philosophies. Robby Krieger turned me on to the DOORS.
It was his humility, love, and respect, that made me a Doors fan for life.
I saw him play a few years back in NYC, at a place called The Winery. Great show. Robbie has his own sound, not your typical rock cliche player, running the same five notes up and down the fretboard.
I agree about his playing. So much variety. And so unique!
I had the pleasure to see Robbie and Ray play a show about a year before Ray passed. Ray must have know he was sick but none of us did. Robbie was so good. That whole band was great...
Probably the most under-rated guitarist, Robbie Krieger
So underrated that someone like me decades after that broke up has heard of him. Small time you know?
The Doors are amongst one of the best American bands-if not the best. They achieved being placed upon the pantheon of greatness of music, poetry, and art.
How many lifetimes must any person embark on, in order to achieve half of their successes...
I've always liked that the Doors could make great music in many different styles...
Agreed. Along with Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Beach Boys, The Grateful Dead, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, and The Allman Brothers, I'd say The Door's is one of America's best bands of all time, and to me probably the most unique.
Good comment. When all is said and done, The Doors may well be the most important, and best American band.
You gotta throw CCR into the mid too.
@@tdunph4250 great call, they definitely deserve to be in that category too.
Wish this was longer. Could listen to stories all day
Sometimes I just wish this show was something we could also watch and not just listen to it just would be lovely to see these people's faces and their interactions
Robbie is so right, saying that we need another 60s
What specifically do you think he was hoping for?
@@ToadstoolShadowhi I’d like to insert my two cents;
Maybe just radical change, a fresh breath at life, a new perspective.
We’ve been at each others throats since that era (I’m 25, feel free to correct me) and it seems like we’ve hit a standstill and we’re not really fighting or radicalizing for genuine change.
We’re so numbed out by social media, insecurities, the same old music, conformity, not standing true to what we believe, and overall a mass movement of unconsciousness. But I stay hopeful, I’m trying to change for the better, and if we’re a collective, I’d imagine so is everyone else. Would like to hear from anyone else!
It was called the early 90s.
@@TheChinchillaArmy It ain't gonna happen. People are way to divided.
@@mcnowski Exactely!
Robbie Krieger is my favorite guitarist of ALL time! He wrote so many greats songs and had numerous unbelievable leads!! Many thanks!
So cool that Robbie's memory is so sharp that he remembered all those early gigs, not only where they where but what they played and everyone's behavior, etc. This is pure gold thanks so much
I guess it helped that last year I think he released his biography. I think I saw that he was working on that in interview 15y ago!
memory is more a construction something the brain does anew each time a memory is created- whether they are accurate or not is another question - more often just a compelling story we tell.
Robbie’s memory .. yeah, particularly given the amount of chemicals involved ..
I talked to Krueger at Hughs Market in about 2014 and mentioned the first time I saw them was at the Valley Music Theater and he remembered the Rainy Daze went on before them..
I lived in West LA during the sixties and got to see the Doors and Love during that period. Both phenomenal groups.
Agreed
More stories pls
The West is the best.
@@JD-ir5fj Take a ride out West....Live it two times in your mind. A double layered reality called Life.
@@lorenheard2561 ride the Blue Bus?
Can't believe we're still getting new doors content, love you Robbie and John 🙏❤🔥
THEY SOUND UNBELIEVABLY YOUNG!
We love you John and Robbie. This interview was so inspiring and insightful. The Doors cast such a massive shadow over popular culture and no doubt over both of your own lives. Thank you for the songs, the live gigs, putting your heart and soul into “the music”.
You 4 guys will never be forgotten and the sonic vibrations you conjured up “from the ether” will last forever. From Light my Fire to LA Woman it was some ride man!!
So many melodies, hypnotic drum beats, timeless guitar riffs, mesmeric keyboard playing and poetic words of wisdom. It’s the kind of music you don’t want ever to get over.
When you guys play together something synchronistic and beautiful happens-please do another event. Just the two of you for old times sake.
Anyway, from my heart, you were the best band to ever come from America.
Peace out!!❤️🙏🎼.x
The more I listen to the doors the more I can appreciate what an incredible ensemble they were. Take any one of them out of the equation and it's no longer the doors. Each of their skills had a totally unique signature that supported Jim's poetic lyricism, almost like a musical score giving mood to a movie.
3 musicians and a poet, like no other. They always continue to take me to new places.
Great analogy. No one could have replaced any of band. It was a cosmic thing. I think Ray was the glue. He was the one who drove Jim. As a irish guy born 80 miles from him. 17 yrs later. I was a hard heavey drinker since 18. Plus all the drugs in the 80s. Lsd. Blow. Gin. Vodka. Tequila. I am now 59. Still a party 2 nights a week. So the fact that he died from 6 years of abuse is not what i think. He OD. Or he fake his death. Only he would fake his end. He was sick of pop stardom. Facing prison term. MR. MOJO RISON.?
I agree. Great group made of great individuals.
Only followed the mighty Beatles by 2 years & were attempting more experimental sounds/styles than fab 4.
The British invasion of Beatles, Stones & Who in that period would overshadow the Doors that led to them getting less publicity/exposure.
probably one of the best things I’ve heard in a long time
The Truth! All my anxiety is gone. So cool and relaxing.
True but I do wish that some of these were visual also and we could see the people talking and interacting and laughing and whatnot
Robbie and John from ..the DOORS!!! Real life LEGENDS Man!!! Wow!!!!😎 loved these guys since 1978 when I heard Break on through at a punk club here in Liverpool England
Great interview with John Densmore and Robbie Krieger talking about the early days when they left London Fog to be the house band at the Whisky. I was there on June 18, 1966, when they did a 45 minute jam session with 20-year-old Van Morrison and his Them band where Ray Manzarek did the organ riff on "Gloria" and then they did "In the Midnight Hour." Incredible night. That summer of 1966 was a magical time and the Doors were evolving from a jazzy bar band to a legendary music group.
Don please share more. So jealous of all the ppl who got to live in those times
Yeah I totally agree I would love to hear a lot more and would not get bored at all no matter how detail-oriented it might be I think it would be wonderful .
1966 I was only 8 years old .
But I do remember my neighbors older brother coming home from Vietnam and playing Light My Fire on his stereo and we were so blown away and loved it ... just after that it was all over the radio . ... Great memories ... it was great growing up with so much wonderful music in the 60s and 70s
Do you remember which night It's a Beautiful Day played at the Whisky in 1966 or 1967?
Omg!
@@sr2291 If your commenting about the band, they formed in late 1967 and were from San Francisco and played their first important gigs in Seattle then San Francisco around early 1968, then the Whiskey in May 16-19th 1968 and met Lou Adler! Have you heard of The Flock, based in Chicago, they also had an excellent violinist Jerry Goodman, both bands were great. I saw both of them in 1970, they played at the Bath Music festival along with Led Zeppelin etc, saw the Flock at the Royal Albert Hall, my friend was a violin player and we met the band backstage!
The doors music is timeless. If I was stuck on a deserted island and had to choose between listening to the Beatles or the Doors , it would be the Doors for me !
the grooves on Robby's and John's collective memory can recall some amazing things. very humble and selfless guys adorning love the way they did. glad these two despite past differences could bring it together to be able to discuss the la music scene so vibrant those many years ago.
I agree for being 2 guys getting on in years...they both have great memories. Im 50 and I swear my memory isnt half as sharp. I could be wrong but it was my understanding that the rift was never between Robbie and John...it was Ray and John who had a very difficult relationship which is why John wasn't involved in the reunited Doors with Ian Astbury or any later versions of the band with Robbie and Ray.
Props to Rick for givin some Love to LOVE! Forever Changes is a Masterpiece! PLAY LOUD!
Great interview! One of the best I have heard with The Doors.
Ya agreed, i found it fascinating the comparison jim to sinatra. I often remember thinking this myself when i first found them but never dare mention it .. guess i was too cool back then to admit i even knew who sinatra was lol..
But alot of great points made throughout this interview
I think these 3 dudes need to talk for another at least 8 hours. give us all the stories! they dont seem shy in the least bit to tell em!!!! talking about the mother fucking doors for god sake! national treasures these 2 we have left are. Thank you Rick for this and everything else you give the world.
Robbie talking about how he got the Doors gig “with that good hair” is amazing. Worth a listen all the way, word to Rick.
I love that Robbie mentions that Love could even be considered somewhat Punk. "7 and 7 is" in my mind is definitely one of the best examples of early proto-punk songs before guys like The Stooges came around.
7&7 ,what a rocking record. Specially in mono
The Ramone's and The Damned's Love covers are excellent!
The Nile Song by Pink Floyd could even be considered early metal
I consider Ray to be the glue that held the band together. Robbie wrote some of their best songs. So blessed we all are because of them
Love these in depth interviews with icons of music Rick!!!!! Keep it up!!!! ❤️🔥🎼❤️🔥
One of the most influential bands in Latin America !
It dawned on me during one of the COVID Lockdowns here in San Francisco...
I listened to The Doors as a teen early '80s semi - constantly.
They were heavy rotation for most of us glued to Classic Rock and AOR formats. Disillusioned by Loverboy, Adam Ant & Duran Duran on MTV filling the vacuum - poorly we thought.
Bonham & Moon dying just as we're reaching concert age and getting our 1st cars concerts.
STRANGE DAYS. My 1st DOORS LP.
Daily, at least 1side for...a looong time.
Daily Stoner.
Shrooms Acid Luudes
Strange Days really supports the trip.
Carnival Organ Concertos from another Galaxy, another time .
Vocals haunting, daring, secure but scary.
And the words.
I'm pretty sure Peace Frog was on every MaxellUDLll Mix tape I ever made for like 2 years.
🙏Grateful I am to you Robbie Krieger & John Densmore. And blessed are you being a musician in that era.
I'm still at it but ... you know.
I'm forever grateful for The Doors and their music and live performances But..
I can't help feeling sad that there wasn't..more. Life.
Cool interview. Hello, to the surviving members of The Doors: one of my favorite bands and probably the most important and thought-provoking rock bands in the United States. ✅🎵🆒
I can see why some youngsters in this generation couldnt get with the Doors’ sound but with Jims lyrics, you can literally go on a trip with their music and itll still be relevant today, thanks to Jims writing.
Straight up
Robbie wrote the hits
Many un-earthed early EARLY stories; In my opinion - The Doors are def 1 of the greatest AMERICAN bands ever - Their songs (ie: lyrics) will continue to live on.......
ya think?
Love and The Doors are my two favorite bands ever. Love them both so much.
I was a little boy when I first discovered The Doors. It wasn't until years later that it dawned on me that Jim Morrison was in his twenties when this music was created. Just astounding.
When Robby walked out on stage Woodstock 99’ the crowds reaction was to date the best concert energy I’ve ever experienced.
May the universe bless, JIM, RAY, ROBBY, AND JOHN, YOUR MUSIC AND DEFIANCE CHANGED ME AND MY WORLD…….
An American Prayer is such awesome music. They had so much more to give
Just Discovering The Doors now. In 39 and unfortunately missed their peak. What I love about them is the "bluesy" sound.
Robbie Krieger was in my opinion the one band member that went the furthest and accompanied Jim in his psychic journey and understood Jim's psychic Landscapes and was able to portray them into music.. I really felt like he went all the way out there with him when for example he played that frenzied Solo in "when the music's over".. I really felt like he was all the way out there with Jim's Madness in "the end".. and was spot on in portraying those psychic landscapes, and yet he remained grounded. Which is amazing. It's amazing the way he remained with his feet on the ground and his head in the stars all the way through the Doors career
What a brilliant comment and so spot on in my opinion. I've thought very similarly through many years of listening to them. Listening to live gigs it's uncanny how Robby could anticipate what Jim was going to do and be right there to answer him! They had a deep musical and even psychic connection. I think that partly came from their writing together in those early days. And just mutual artistic admiration.
All 3 were grounded compared to Lizard King. Perhaps the TM helped him & John & both hailing from laid-back SoCal.
@@strangersname thanks! I only just saw your comment
The Doors actually resonate with me more than any other band and it isnt just because of their music. Something about these guys feels like divine intervention. I literally freeze and observe when ever I see these guys on stage. I think they were dropped into our lives from a higher power. I think every member of this band is fascinating every one of them.
As a huge doors fan thanks for the great unsuspected present!
I'm so thankful we got this interview.
So glad these two are still around to tell all these stories that I can listen to all fucking day long and never get tired of .
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this interview with Robbie and John it was so well done and so informative of the pop culture but also as the doors history and journey❤ John Densmore inspired me to play the drums and be a drummer as I am a multi-instrumentalist but all the doors even up to today are so underrated as musicians an artist
Excellent interview... Rick asks all the right questions - so grateful for The Doors' music and to still have Robby and John around to bring us closer to the band with interviews is a treat.
Good stuff. Great stories.
Just read Robby’s book. Excellent.
And, enjoy John’s books too. Well done.
Robby's book was probably the most objective of the Doors books. Good read it's written in Robby's voice.
Right Sterling!
His honesty and humility were refreshing.
Robby so likable.
Oh shit.legendsssss
Im stoked for this. Imho When the Music's Over is one of the most mindblowing songs ever recorded.
Great inteview. I got to meet Robby after one of his shows back in the early 90s and he was such a chill cool dude. He sat down with me and 2 friends of mine along with a few guys from his band and we just shot the shit and had some drinks etc for well over an hour. Easily one of the coolest celebs Ive ever gotten to meet.
I met Chuck Berry at LAX airport he was sitting at a table by himself i asked if I could sit down he said yes and we had a couple of drinks & shot the shit until the plane boarded he was in first class i said thanks and that was it I'll always remember it .
Are used to take guitar lessons from Rick Moors, who played bass for Robby Krieger’s band. I would ask how to play LA Woman, Light My Fire, Love Me Two Times… and Rick would go ask would go ask Robbie how to play them and relay the song back to me… I was one LUCKY and blessed scrappy 16- year old! Robbie has an incredible range of styles. Thank you Robbie! You’re the best.
@@juniorjohnson5961 so what was he like? I'm the same way. I don't mind approaching "celebs". Some ppl act like they're too cool to approach a celeb.
So did you talk about Jim??
@@trawlins396 He was cool asked me where I'm from what was I doing out there just normal stuff nice guy.
Simply giants of music. There never will be a sound like The Doors 🎉❤
Best Doors related interview. Wish Ray was there it would be 2 hours long…
Rick is the man. Robby and John we need more people like you guys. True souls
A shame Ray Manzarek couldn't make this ... what a great keyboard player. Damn ...
Total legends and major inspirations.
Good grief, this is excellent!!
Forever changes, one of the greatest albums ever!
The best psychedelic album from '67 by any American rock band(Doors self-titled a close second; best group debut of all time!)
Love this interview. I remember Jim said if he had to do it all over again he’d rather be an artist puttering in his garden. I took a few cues from that and now I AM an artist puttering in my garden :-) singing Doors songs to the bees and the flowers 💜
pottering
Time flew in the fast 60s. I remember a couple of sweet cars, a 66 Shelby GT350 Mustang Fastback and a 69 RL8 Z28 Crossram Camaro. They were new in the showroom every September of the 60s.
Never been a band like them, nor shall there ever be.
This is just wonderful isn't it, hearing these two. Real heroes of mine.
It's really strange but delightful to remember that time, growing up in the 50's and 60's, hearing Door's songs like "End of the Night" and "The End", the moodier things they did haunted me as I worked in a factory night shift; just before all hell would break loose once I got drafted, entered the Navy, later finally entered college and began to experiment with an electric guitar...those things set my life in the right direction. But those early, experimental rock songs set my imagination aflame and eventually inspired me to make my own music...something I did not at the time think I could or would do! It was my salvation in many ways..
But it started with the 60's music scene, and the Doors were integral to my life at the time. I live in gratitude that I lived at just the right time in history.
Cheers, all!
Wow, this was a fantastic interview. Robby & John really opened up to Rick and told some great stories about The Door's early years. And Rick didn't focus too much on Jim's demise. I think this interview will be relevant forever.
Thank you so much for the Music & everything in between… The Doors is Life, eternaly… 🙏🏽❤️🌻
Great convo
Wish it would of been longer like 3 hours!
What a great interview!
Thanks
Rick! Finally a decent Doors interview, relaxed as they respect you. Ralph here from Tower Sunset. "You keep playing Quireboys, there's this band called Black Crowes George is into..?" You remember. Glad you're doing OK here in the future, best
Very nice. It's hard to have an original interview, with new questions, with surviving members of The Doors. This was a fresh, fun, organic, entertaining long-form interview. Fantastic. Wonderful. A thousand stars.
Long time Doors fan.
Sweet!!! Thanks for this podcast with these two.
I love drummers who does jazzy things.
Really loved this, excellent interview!! Rick's sincere love of music as a real fan shines through and it's like he is speaking for us
Geez, these two have great memories of their great memories.
First truly uncensored interview I’ve heard from these guys. Thanks so much. Goldmine.
Rick does such a great interview, its obvious that he understands the rock n roll world so well and that experience along with off the record conversations he's had with other legends in the past give him ideas for questions he could ask another musician in a different context. I want to thank Rick for taking time out to do this, I think we know that there are a million other things that he could be doing, and this is a wonderful public service.
Love these guys!
It's so cool that these guys are still around to tell us all about the legacy of The Doors and Jim Morrison.
Thanks for this enjoyable interview! Still enjoy Doors music 55+ years later!
Thanks to John and Robbie for doing this, rip Ray and Jim and long live The Doors, one of my favourite bands, cheers fellas 🙏
Awesome, thanks!
“We need another ‘60’s. Music is the only thing we agree upon”. I agree that we need another 60’s movement with its own music…but the are also other things such food, well being/human health, and the environment should also be things we can all get behind us this movement.
What a great interview, thanks Rick, John and Robby... 👍👏
Are YOU fucking kidding me?!?!?! JeeeezUSkeeerist! I would LOVE to have a sit-down and wax intellectual about everything...and i mean ALL of it! All three of these beautiful human beings....dammit, this is GOLD! 🌱
one of my favorite bands growing up. When I heard Jim I remember saying Wow and the band just had me into the music
Legends
I really appreciate posting this. There is so much to unpack here for fans. Amazing.
Stoked beyond words to have stumbled upon this
Terrific interview with the 2 living legends of the doors greatest band ever,love hearing their insights,both are brilliant musicians who made that unique doors sound with Jim and Ray.
Fascinating interview thanks to Rick Rubin and the Doors sans Jim Morrison. The Doors have such a unique sound. So good to hear their take on life back then❤
wow ! that blew my mind.. especially the Soul Leaving His Body in New Orleans
What a fantastic interview. Space to talk which allowed it to flow beautifully.
That was awesome. Ive spent a lot of time listening to The Doors music, but focusing on on John's and Robbie's play and they both always amazed me. Thanks for posting.
So many incredible, creative artists of this period of time.
Wow, one of the best intervjus I've ever heard. The word flow comes into mind. Thank you guys. RIP Jim.
What a great interview. Learned all kinds of new things about the doors and laughed out loud so many times. Thanks guys.
"Jim and I did speed before that gig." -- Robby
Bad habits. Other people have to be drug-free when working.
What a gift, thank you.
Best episode so far!!!!
