The Doors albums

 

 

I believe there are actually 3 proggier albums than Waiting for the Sun micky man , at least you can take on prog song per album, though.

 

I consider The Doors without Morrison still as The Doors...unfortunately they didn`t think the same. That was the reason they split: "We finally realized that the band  wasn`t right without Jim, so it was time to close The Doors" said Manzarek in one interview. This is also one of the reasons why those two trio albums are deleted since the mid seventies in the U.S.

 

First, I made a mistake. Love street is part of waiting.

 

And, about the remark, I don't consider An American Prayer a full The Doorsd album: the music was (mostly) made post-mortem (Morrison of course)... most of the music are bits of already released tracks.... without the actual participation of Morrison, although the poetry is his, he hadn't any input in the actual final sound of the music and in the music Manzarek, Krieger and Densmore selected as background to the poetry. I think is a great album but not a great THE DOORS album.... it's more of a tribute for me.... but very good at that.

 

And I'M STILL WAITING for them to be INCLUDED HERE.

 

While the overall group's sound is proggy, it's rather difficult to pick only one album which is the proggiest. Strange Days has "When the Music's Over", Soft Parade has "The Soft Parade", L.A.Woman has "Riders on the Storm", and so on. It doesn't mean that the mentioned albums don't have other prog songs, those were just examples. All their six studio albums I'm acquainted with are at the same (more or less) degree of progginess, in my opinion. I'll vote, probably, for their debut album, and not only because of "The End".
