Jackass Whisky and Pinto Beans Not to be nitpicky but this album came out in ‘67. It’s crazy to think these guys were effectively around for only 3 years with Jim Morrison and yet they still have an impact today.
@@EMC2Scotia Pretty amazing in retrospect. They were ahead of their time, recorded in the summer of 1966 there was nothing like them back then, a true original. Greatest debut rock album of all time in my opinion. Morrison was an outlier, he exploded then disappeared. And there has been no one like him since.
This song was the last track on The Doors' first album, and the music on that album has a strange and unique story. Morrison ran into Ray Manzarek (the keyboardist) one day and told him he'd taken some acid and seen "a whole concert in my head". He had lyrics for a whole concert set written down, and when Manzarek told him they were awesome, they decided to try forming a band. So this song, along with the others on that album, all came from one long acid trip.
Jim Morrison was a poet and wanted to be remembered as one. So many great doors songs, another long one is When the Musics Over, I'm a fan of the soft parade. They have alot of bluesy songs and latin influences such as spanish caravan. There is an album ,American prayer which is Jim reciting poetry and music was put to it after his death his words are magic.
Over 50 years old. At the time I figured I might well die in Vietnam. We were losing our heroes one after another, Kennedy, King... Morrison's dad was military, and it feels like it shaped him hard. It felt like all our dads were WWII veterans- Hard to separate the music from the time. First recorded band I ever saw live, in Milwaukee in 68. On a good night they sounded just like this, live. This stuff was pretty much recorded just as it is. Light My Fire was the first hit and one of the best songs ever- their last album is maybe showing too much sign of Morrison's unraveling from drinking- but what was the best Doors song? The one you're listening to!
This Band was so different from everyone else because of Jim Morrison.(Lead vocals& poet) They spanned the spectrum of Blues, poetry, Rock, and stuff I don't think there is a name for. These guys were one of a kind. Check out their music catalogue, something for everyone. Crazy live concerts. JIm Morrison had all the traits of a "Cult" leader. He sucks you in, and then you never want to leave.
Total eargasm just before, during and after the 11:00 mark. Great song to introduce you to The Doors. I think you'd enjoy When the Music's Over. Another epic longer song. Always gives me chills. So does this one. Great reaction!
So this was three years ago and I just found it but there are so many Doors react videos now and I'm really happy to see young people giving amazingly positive reacts to these songs that are over 50 years old. I felt I had a deep connection with Jim when I found him at thirteen. Just found out last year he's my second cousin once removed.
Glad you liked what you heard. Break on Through, Peace Frog or LA Woman should be next! Listening to a new artist every day is a great idea for a channel!
@@histatimaniples really? Wouldnt have made that connection, but, then, I play in a hard rock band, and my inspiration was a Gospel family group, called The Singing Cookes. First drum set I'd ever played, first guitar or bass I ever plucked, first piano I ever played, all belonged to them
@Mas Dito yes, of course, I wasnt trying to pigeonhole them, obviously many influences, just the vibe I get from most the songs they have that I really dig.
Just think, each of us listening to this song are part of Western Civilization its high highs and its low lows. This is a dark song, not a happy song, but it makes one think. What were the influences? I think it's Greek Tragedy and Individualism. That is our common bond.
Funny, i was telling someone the reason i think broken people cluster is because tragedy is romantic. Everyone thinks Romeo and Juliet is beautiful, except Romeo...and Juliet.
The Doors didn't have a bassist. Ray Manzarek started off using a Wurlitzer electric keyboard. He then switched to a Vox Continental organ. He put a Fender Rhodes Piano Bass on top of the Vox. The bass you heard was the piano bass. Back in the day compilations of music were album oriented. Each of The Doors albums were different from the other. Jim was a poet, Ray, Robbie, and John were all classically trained musicians. Additionally, Jim and Ray were UCLA film school dropouts. Jim had a voracious appetite for reading. The part in the song where he tells his father...was Oedipal.
The Doors never had a bass player. They had more like 20. All were uncredited on the albums but many did overdub work or played with them in a concert setting. I don't believe there is any bass on this song (I could be mistaken) but more than likely it's Ray on the Fender Rhodes Piano Bass.
You're correct, The End was recorded without a bassist. Also, I think it was more like 14 session bassists if we're just counting studio albums. One of them, Doug Lubahn, was actually asked to join the band full time in late 1967, but he declined choosing to focus on his own band (Clear Light) instead.
We all got a bit high making very poor judgement calls and decisions that were terrible in the 60s. Imagine not taking advantage of the offer by one of the only bands to split even right down the middle. Split in perfect fourths including song writing as well as everything else. As soon as their leed guitar player wrote light my fire (split four ways) the going was pure heaven for everyone in the band. This was possibly the single best gig in human history.
Elvis was only censored by Ed Sullivan. The Doors have the distinction of being the only act to be banned from his show for life--and it took less than 30 seconds.
Youre one of the good reviewers - you dont interrupt. I like that. About "all the musicians", theres actually only three ! Giutarist, drummer and keyboardist, who also plays the bass line with his left hand on a small keyboard that plays bass. Of course, this was an actual bass, since it was done in the studio. They used different bassplayers. So, there's 3 musicians and Jim Morrison, the singer. He wrote most of the songs' lyrics, although some songs were written by other members. Jim was a POET, which he wanted to be known for.. There are 3 books of his poetry and lyrics. Check it out. On the album STRANGE DAYS (my fave), there's a poem read by Jim, with sound effects by the band, called HORSE LATITUDES . It's definitely worth a listen. BTW, theyre called psychedelic by some people, but I like to call them SURREALISTIC .
Maggie M'Gill from their Morrison Hotel album would be a great one to do. It's been overlooked, but it's a great song. Bluesy/Jazzy kind of song with a very unique, attention-holding guitar riff. (The live version with John Sebastian on harmonica on stage is the best version. It's on The Doors Live in New York Felt Forum) … Wait a minute, I'll look. … Here it is! th-cam.com/video/8QQptXS7Q4s/w-d-xo.html The riff is more pronounced in the studio version, but the harmonica and the groove take control in the live version. Jim's voice isn't at it's best in the live version, but the rawness of it fits in well with that rough, down-to-earth groove.
Definitely takes you on a journey. Not one of their most upbeat songs but one of their best nonetheless. Roadhouse blues, c- mon baby light my fire, unknown soldier, L.A. woman, the changeling, crawling king snake, riders on the storm, break on through, people are strange are just a few to check out . They're amazing. Great reaction. Keep on rockin.
Fun fact: During the recording sessions for this song Jim Morrison (on an insane amount of LSD and booze), threw a TV at the control room window after laying on the floor for a while repeating "kill the father, fuck the mother." He was on an Oedipus trip at the time - kill the father meaning (basically) "kill all things instilled in you unnaturally by an overbearing society" and fuck the mother meaning "return to your primal essence - fornicate with mother nature." I'm not sure if he quite understood what Freud was saying, but he definitely understood something. He was sent home after this, but returned later and drenched the studio with a fire extinguisher. "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." - Hunter S. Thompson
You need to find the unedited version for when he goes into the Oedipal sequence (killing the father, fucking the mother). This started out as a love song as you can tell from the lyrics but he just kept building upon it and adding to it and it got out there psychedelically more and more. Those were the times but even more so, that was Jim Morrison.
Pop music is fun but sometimes I need to listen to serious musicians, the Doors were just that. Brilliant. I was 8 when Light my fire was released, I didn't appreciate their music until I was in college, but what a great revelation that was.
FYI, there was no bass player in this song (or almost any other Doors song). The organist, Ray Manzarek, used an bass organ for the bass parts in almost their entire catalog.
Hey buddy..love these reaction vids.....the keyboard player laid down the bass line ....the doors didn't use a bass player....just an FYI.... keep them coming
Somewhere in the nineties I was driving with my girlfriend from Bordeaux to Vvalencia... She played this song and broke up with me... She was the most bf girl I ever saw and still still is to this day...
If you listened to it when you were 18, holding a draft card with a 1-A on it and looking at a tour in 'Nam, 20 minutes after doing 2 hits of LSD 25 you'd have what psychologists call a "significant emotional experience"
The darkest image of western society ever contrived. It is filled with ancient archetypes and imagery worthy of a 400 level literature lecture. Only thing close is Truman Capote's In Cold Blood.
My take: first part - the loss of an immediate human connection. first 2/3 of middle section - pure stream of consciousness. Morrison's synapses firing. Constant theme - westward exodus of 60s youth seeking a contemporary form of enlightenment, the manifest destiny of the hipsters, the peaceful conquest of the "father's" territories. Last 1/3 of middle section - Oedipus. The brother and sister are peers. He doesn't mention what the killer does with them. He's primal. He could have fucked, killed, played chess with, or simply said hello to them. Irrelevant. Father he killed. He is culture (Ironically, "mother culture" in Daniel Quinn's 'Ishmael'). Mother, he did fuck. Mother Nature. He wanted to. It is the completion of his self-actualization as ape. Swelling section - the actions of fucking and killing (fucking the mother among tribal rhythm, killing the father among society's static chaos). Final part - full circle with the beginning. The ending of Finnegans wake is the first half of the sentence it started with.
Sorry but to get the total picture of this amazing song, you need some good 1968 LSD. Jim Morrison's voice is so crazy beautiful. I just love The Doors. If you watch the movie directed by Oliver Stone, "The Doors" you get pieces of Jim's messed up life which is how he was able to write the deep poetry and song lyrics. He has always interested me. What is in a brain that writes a song like this??
If you were to drop atleast five hits of LSD a couple of hours before listening to this, you would become one with the Mind of The Lizard King.. I think the live versions are better.. This is really about Alexander the Great and his journey into Persia and Babylonia.. Alexander killed his father and likely was intimate with his mother. Alexander's best friend and one of his Generals named Hephaestion suddenly died. You can notice the theme obviously in the lyrics.
Dude, good enough reaction, however I did not expect your voice to be so high when you actually started commenting. Not judging. Perhaps it was because Jims voice is kinda low.
This is certainly a tough one to start with... Many folks don't understand Jim wrote poetry and then the band wrote the music to fit the poetry in many cases... A lot of people did a lot of drugs back then so things didn't seem so strange... They do have a lot of classics that people have referenced here.
Bad song to start with the Doors cause not enough Ray Manzarek. He was the the doors ( organ player) . The other 3 would not have made it in music if it wasn't for him !
He missed what the song was saying but if you dont understand the pshycodelic influence or the veil of Vietnam everyone was influenced by , it would be hard to articulate much of the music of 67.
It always give me a thrill to watch people who have never heard this song. Remember this was '68.
Jackass Whisky and Pinto Beans Not to be nitpicky but this album came out in ‘67. It’s crazy to think these guys were effectively around for only 3 years with Jim Morrison and yet they still have an impact today.
@@caladbolg777 I agree. They put out an absurd amount of music in a short period of time.
@@caladbolg777 with this recorded August 1966, little more than a year after they began. With Morrison never having been a musician or in a band.
@@EMC2Scotia Pretty amazing in retrospect. They were ahead of their time, recorded in the summer of 1966 there was nothing like them back then, a true original. Greatest debut rock album of all time in my opinion. Morrison was an outlier, he exploded then disappeared. And there has been no one like him since.
1967
The Doors are legendary. Jim Morrison’s lyrics are dark poetry but beautiful and hypnotic.
YES ! YOU GET AN A+
The Doors is an incredible band, please more
This song was in Apocalypse Now. Try "Riders on the Storm" next, I think you'll enjoy it.
Doors songs: Light my fire, Crystal Ship, L.A Woman, Whiskey Bar, Roadhouse Blues, and on and on. Great Band.
people are strange
Love Me Two Times, Break on Through, Love Street, I Looked at You, Take It As It Comes,Touch Me, Hello I Love You, etc., etc.
Corker x when the musics over
(There were A LOT of Doors songs that had to fit into my "etc., etc.") :-)
Corker x ofc course but I doubt he knows that song and it’s one of their best
Jim would take his audience on a journey through what’s really going through his head. He was way before his time and was a genius.
John Densmore is sick on this.
One of the best drummers I ever heard.
You can feel the tension of the times in this one. Love Robbies understated guitar work
Keep going with The Doors. They’re a goldmine. “Riders On The Storm” next...
For your first Doors song, this one is far out there. This one is psychedelic for sure.
This song was the last track on The Doors' first album, and the music on that album has a strange and unique story. Morrison ran into Ray Manzarek (the keyboardist) one day and told him he'd taken some acid and seen "a whole concert in my head".

Really love the doors they were masters of their musical universe please react to doors When the music's over And also the soft parade
Whole Soft Parade is a master piece

Jim Morrison The Lizard King. He could do anything. .
Except quit drinking...we all lost something because of that.
No one uses the organ anymore in music. I’ve always loved it.
Love his open mind toward the Doors Subscribed!
His face when Morrison started singing haha
Riders On The Storm is such a perfect song in every way. In my opinion.
Glad you liked what you heard.
Break on Through, Peace Frog or LA Woman should be next!
Listening to a new artist every day is a great idea for a channel!
This song gives me the chills every single time I hear it, regardless of how many times I've heard it.
NOT TO TOUCH THE EARTH is a must song to hear
My favorite doors album is the soft parade, I really like the title track.
Best part of the Trip
@@pjay213 I see what you did there
....my least favourite album. But with a couple of very good tracks.
@@pjay213 the best part
Riders on the storm !!
Such a great band, what an introduction to them!
I always think of the Doors as a band with 3 rooms, one psychedelia, one blues, one psychadelic blues.. Robbie, a huge guitarist with a tiny ego
All four are needed.
Jazz, Spanish flamenco,blues, psychedelic, western country, folk, proto punk rock . Iggy pop started because of the doors
@@histatimaniples Excellent answer.

Light my Fire 🤘😎 💯
Must have been crazy at the time, people still thought Elvis shaking his hips was too much.
Elvis was only censored by Ed Sullivan. The Doors have the distinction of being the only act to be banned from his show for life--and it took less than 30 seconds.
Elvis was popular a decade prior. The end of the 60s was a sexual revolution, so it wasn't that uncommon.
Look up Hasil Adkins -we got a date,was released in 58
Riders On the Storm or LA Woman for the next Doors song.

sheeesh. Diving right intp the deep end haha. This song is EPIC.
Great video g💯 definitely a good song to get hip to
@'funny facts' Morrison is one of those whose grave is outside the USA, he is buried in Paris at Le Pere Lachaise cemetery.
Funny how?
