He sounds younger on this version somehow…it’s almost like those last months of his life he was a reverse Benjamin Button, or you might say “Old Grandad” Button 😜
I imagine in my head that Ray's keys is the rain, Robby's guitar strings are lighting bolts, John's drums are the deep roars of the thunder, and Jim's voice being the wind. They all roam across the sky together singing while the storm is overhead.
To me the Doors never get old they just get better and when they release new studio out takes to me it's like re discovering them again they never get old The Doors are forever !
Thank you Robby & John...and of course, Ray and Jim for ALL your talent and musical gifts to the world. - from a lifelong fan since the early days... ✌🏽❤️🎶
Love this version. Densmore hits the snare on more notes during some parts, compared to the final version. By removing some of them for the album version, it became much more hypnotic. Ray just kills anything he ever plays on, dude was incredible. Jim’s voice sounds young again, first album young. God, I love this band.
@Peter Lovett .... I agree. This version is cool, but lacks that dark moody chill of the final release. One of the reasons I always seek out demo and original mixes of songs from bands I like, is to give that perspective of the original interpretation and how a producer / engineer influences the final product. I have many hundreds of such recordings and will occasionally play the bands original version with final product to see how bands grow or change through the recording process :)
im so glad that i can listen to this, after 50 years we have something new and this guys, even if i was born in this century, still make me dream today. im glad to have their music in my life, honestly.
I really like this version and all versions. This version has more audible rawer bass sound which does add atmosphere. Great mysterious song. I was lucky enough to see The Doors of the 21st Century in 2004. It featured Robbie Krieger, Ray Manzerek, Ian Astbury singer for The Cult. Unfortunately Jon Densmore wasn't present due to hearing loss and naming rights disputes. It was a great show. Now only Robbie and Jon are left.
The first version of this I heard was the one from American Prayer. It was fairly new and being around 12 I was just discovering FM radio. After a year or so I heard the album version. Now here I am a few decades later hearing the original demo.
Sorry for all not around in the sixties!!! The Doors--the best American rock band hands down!!!!!!! Rock power mystery --''soul of the sixties--as a musician after i heard their first album I was changed
Yeah well, it's a slight rearrangement of Ghost Riders In The Sky which had already been kicking around for years by then, so even this early demo version was going to be pretty much there already.
Amazin'! Jim, Robby, John & Ray are pure magic. Added to the genius of Paul Rothchild, they are absolutely immortal. The Doors are always open for the mind and soul...
DOORs, it's a legend for all time! Jim Morrison, this is a cosmos, a universe that is unsolved and not understood by people. This is a man from the future! I love this song, I can listen to it all the time! Jim, will live forever in our hearts! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖🎶🎶🎶🎶
This sounds like how they would have played it live on tour I think. Brilliant. Just add in a little rain and thunder tape loop and I would pay to see that!!!
Simplesmente inacreditável de saber q esse era o "rascunho" da versão final. Gosto muito das duas, mas essa me pegou dms e virou a minha favorita. O baixo é simplesmente surreal e esses drums fills incríveis??!!! simples f0d* essa demo. Esse minuto do 2:35 ate o 3:34 é surreal pqp!!!!!! Simplesmente não fazem mais músicas com tanta vida, dinâmica, impacto como as de antigamente.... uma pena mesmo. Sou de 2004 e amo essas músicas antigonas são f0d4sssssss.
Very cool to know the inspiration was Ghost Riders In The Sky that ended up like this. Genius interpretation. They fed off each other so well. A band in the truest sense!
This is definitely different than I'm thinking of the doors' music from the 70's and I never thought this version of Riders on the storm would sound much better than I thought unexpectedly than I thought it would be remembered
@@llistentorock мдаа, а есть и такое - люди например говорят "тот концерт был один из лучших вообще" , а запись такая, что песен различить невозможно (( к сожалению далеко не все концерты записаны, а те, у которых есть аудиозапись, она не всегда качественная.

Its the demo..why would it be polished??? Its a damn good first take..! Very little was changed..some vocal inflections some Thunderclaps and rain.. If the Rothschild story is true he was having a bad day..any DOORS fan would love this 🎵 song! The DOORS were always on the blues flavor of rock n roll. The jazz bluesy nature of this song has lived for decades and sold well. Soft parade probably underwhelmed Paul and he maybe attached too much of that to Riders. ..DOORS did make 2 or three hits for album L A WOMAN to be on singles charts but to me the DOORS were an an album band like the Who. The End was one their first album and it was longer and more off the beaten track than RIDERS
No, it’s not at all, but I dig the mood of this one a lot also. Slightly more rushed - or like they all weren’t fully present yet. Just as interesting, in its own way.
se nota que es pre grabacion original....era la version que salio del alma ..luego modificada y mejorada ...es la versatilidad creativa y la espontaneidad de las puertas ...que bien!!!
Que Hermosuraaa !! seguir escuchando cosas que han sido guardadas y siguen saliendo hoy en dia a la luz !! Muchas Graciasss!!! Saludos de Argentina!! El pais campeon del mundo !!! Tambien es Doorsiano !! abrazo grande
I dunno. I like this, but I really like the way the LP version has the percussion at the end and sort of tails away. You can imagine Jim's spirit leaving this earthly plane.
Yeah, I dont think it's fair to say someone has no music sensibility, Alfred. I understand you have a right to you opinion, but this version does illustrate the rawness and organic art and musical ability of the band. With that said, the LP version has more of a chill aspect than this--- but this brings the band to your living room more. I get what both of you are saying, but I think each one has cool vibes
Great video. Morrison driving his '67 Ford Mustang on a road trip in the rain. This version is faster and the drums & guitar are more pronounced. I love it.

This version is great too.
It's got a little more spunk which is really cool, but the final version is that much darker and emotional.
@@markezov Right, so as usually it's great to have more than one! Here, if you're feeling "spunky" or dark and emotional they've got you covered!

I love the raw smoothness in Jim's vocals on the demo.
Jim’s voice is just so mesmerising , ! 🇦🇺🦘❤️

Learning to play Riders on the Storm on piano, I can confirm that the piano notes are definitely the rain! :)
You been watching too many superhero movies. Haha.
I’m kidding.
Mother Nature is finite.
The Doors are Infinite.
I dig it! Best description I ever read.. thanks!
Ray literally describes it that way when he talks about it in one of his interviews way later in life! It’s on TH-cam!
This is beautiful.
.after all these years, the doors are still my favorite band.
When Ray Manzarek spoke about this version of "Riders" many years ago, no believed Ray. I'm glad this missing version was found.
The Doors : Four Artists who banded together to make something unique and incredible that will resonate with us throughout the ages...
Killer. Amazing that stuff like this is still surfacing 50 years later. The Doors are eternal.
The Doors were America's Rock Gurus
To me the Doors never get old they just get better and when they release new studio out takes to me it's like re discovering them again they never get old The Doors are forever !
So true.
THIS ANIMATION IS SOOOOOO TRUE TO THE BAND. I LOVE IT, I LOVE YOU THE DOORS.
CHEERS MY FRIENDS, USA USA USA !!!!!
The baseline is almost identical to the album version but stands out so much more in this version and I love it
This version uses keyboard bass, record uses bass guitar. To me bass guitar is much better.
Prefer the demo version, just like Jim rough around the edges, a legend
I wonder if it's because they didn't have an official bassist, and they kinda wanted to keep the bass lowkey on release
bassline
Who plays the keyboard bass here??
Beautiful my first LP at 12 years old in 1967 The Doors The Rest is History~
Incredible version
Thank you Robby & John...and of course, Ray and Jim for ALL your talent and musical gifts to the world.
- from a lifelong fan since the early days...
✌🏽❤️🎶
I love hearing the evolution of famous songs. It shows the true talent and stick-to-it-iveness that it takes to be a professional artist.
If this is cocktail music, it's the best damn cocktail music ever made.
This is wonderful! Without doubt the best band of all time!
They can not be topped by nobody.
That is soooo brilliant! Those original sound bites played and sang as originally intended!
WOW!!!
Great animations too!

No
I'm so grateful for this...
Fascinating how the band developed the song from this to the final version.

Hello Lucia, hope you’re good 😌👋
Jimmy, Ray, Robbie & John the Percepion is 4ever even when the Door is closed!
Man Jim could sing if you really listen we got to meet him through his music I'm 67 now and ain't changed I love my Door's ✌️☕
I love the animation 😍The Doors are so TIMELESS ❤️
I agree. Jim in his Mustang. Both classics. ✌️
The number plate is superb attention to detail
The Doors Forever 🤘
Happy Birthday Lucy Keile Alves Macedo Tavis! RIP Jim & Ray. AWESOME track! 🎹🎶🎸🍻
That solo from Ray is killer!
ray's solo is missing so much since he"s gone.....
fantastic version Morrison and the guys are on top as usual
This band will forever be legendary❗🧎
It’s great hearing this after so many years of listening to the Doors. Morrison’s crooner voice in full effect.
What a final album to now out on. America’s greatest band by a mile. Jim, John, Ray and Rob will never be forgotten.🙏❤️🎼.x
This version is really great. Marvelous Jim, the best!
That's magic
Would be cool to see more music videos in this style.

Pure poetry

Wow! This is the best. Never forgotten always a legend ❤️❤️❤️
Hello Estela, hope you’re good 😌👋
For Jim to sound this good raw is incredible...the band is equally great! my Fav group
These guys are top notch musicians, yet they are so humble and modest. No need to brag when you naturally have it.

What's the whole fascination with spotify ???? If I may ask.

Wonderful version. Superb sound for this demo. Fascinating!

Not as polished as the master take, but it sure does show so much promise for what it would become, one of the The Doors' very best songs. 👍👍👍👍👍

Its a damn good first take..!
Very little was changed..some vocal inflections some Thunderclaps and rain..

Songs become polished with time and production , this is just the demo , but not far off. Damn tight if you ask me with jim sticking to the script
Pleased members of doors worked on song to create the version on L. A women. Much preferable.

Thanks for the music !
Worthy of release
Great video. Morrison driving his '67 Ford Mustang on a road trip in the rain. This version is faster and the drums & guitar are more pronounced. I love it.
