Details: Amazon.caThe next-to-last Doors album, recorded prior to Jim Morrison’s still mystery-shrouded death in a Parisian bathtub, eschewed much of the band’s previous penchant for baroque musical, poetic, and philosophical pretensions (this was, after all, the back-to-roots era of the Beatles’ Let It Be, the Stones’ Let It Bleed, and Dylan’s Nashville Skyline). Instead, the Doors circa 1970 wisely seeped themselves in a bluesy, no-frills approach that might have hinted at creative exhaustion in a lesser band. Instead, the Doors of « Roadhouse Blues » and « Peace Frog » reinvented themselves into arguably one of the greatest bar bands ever, with Morrison’s well-documented demons frolicking in a welcome new ambience. « Waiting for the Sun » and « Ship of Fools » may hearken back to the band’s cabalistic and Kurt Weill leanings, respectively, but framed in an edgier, more effective way. –Jerry McCulleyProduct descriptionThe Doors ~ Morrison Hotel
