   Going with The Doors' debut. A fantastic album. And that's coming from a Floyd fan.

	I don't know. Both were very important in getting me out of my Beatles-only phase.

	The genius of Barrett vs the genius of Morrison...I prefer Barrett.
	I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

	I'm surprised at The Doors blowing out Floyd here but I also much prefer The Doors debut.

	I like both but I like the Doors better. Floyd's gets points off for having some quaint songs which I don't find on The Doors.
	Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

	The Doors; pretty much all of its songs are on at least 1 compilation album of the band, hell most of it (except for 2 of the tracks on side two: I Looked at You and Take It as It Comes i believe) is on the 2 compilation albums that i own (The Best of the Doors the '85 and '07 versions) but then again, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is a good record in the Floyd's discography

	Piper is a masterpiece to me. The Doors has a few tracks I like but nothing special.
	...that moment you realize you like "Mob Rules" better than "Heaven and Hell"

	I really like both bands, but unfortunately their debuts are among the worst in their discographies imo. The only song on Piper that I like is Matilda Mother, and there are only a few songs I remember liking from the Door's debut. I'll have to listen to the Doors's debut again. So as of now, no vote.

	I don't really know much from The Doors, except for a compilation album... so of course I don't know their debut and can't vote here. However, there was absolutley no song on that compilation album that I liked better than Astronomy Domine.

	The Doors' debut by star mile. Never being a big fan of PF's Freakbeat The Piper at the Gates of Dawn LP.

	I never felt that The Door as a whole were a full contributing band, to me they were more a front man lead singer with a band.

	It's strange to compare these two. Floyd, of course. is best. "Piper" is the greatest album of art rock at all.

	The Doors Their debut album was a favorite of mine when I was younger (LOL). Piper... requires a special mood, had there been ASoS or More, they would have got my vote though.

	I love the Doors, but...Piper is much more revolutionary album that Doors first. Only 17 votes? Hey now all you Floyd fans!

	Piper by a country mile. And I like The Doors debut!
	Categories strain, crack and sometimes break, under their burden - step out of the space provided.
