Great to see Ray living it up. Morrison is cool, but my favourite album of theirs is Other Voices !!


That's the most unique opinion about The Doors I've ever seen. Big smile
True. OV followed closely by Waiting for the Sun.

Waiting for the Sun could have been great if Celebration of the lizard was allowed. 
I'd rate it 4th or even 5th if I was to make a list from best to worst or better said favorite to least favorite - debut, Strange Days and Morrison Hotel, even LA Woman.

I totally agree that The Doors of the 21st Century is a great tribute, but are you really saying Other Voices is your favourite album by The Doors? You cannot be serious! Geek

Like you are really saying those are your favorite Yes albums, in the list you made earlier today? LOL

^ Yes, but don't forget I did have three classic Yes albums in my Top 7 list too. That's why Yes are one of my favourite prog bands, because most of their modern post-1970's albums sound every bit as good as their classic albums from the 1970's era, but that's just my opinion. Smile
 
Anyway, just for the record, my favourite record by The Doors is their debut album.

I read somewhere- i think from a couple of different sources- (and yes you cant believe all you read) many years ago that after Jim Died the remaining Doors were very keen to try out Howard Werth from Audience! I'm not sure if an audition took place or indeed where they would have heard or come across him.. dont think Audience toured the states though i know their lps were released and promoted fairly heavily on Elektra so maybe thats where.. Good God, the mind boggles.. what a strange outfit that would have been!! Could well be just another of those urban myths that were generated ten-a-penny back then but what a band that would have been!

At least Howard Werth couldn't be accused of trying to imitate Jim Morrison if he HAD joined The Doors, and he may have attracted a big Audience. Smile

For some reason, the impact Other Voices had on me back in the late-80’s was massive and remains a profound album for me (I was getting stoned a lot during those years )

^ I'll definitely give the Other Voices album another listen now, bearing in mind you really are serious about it being The Doors best album. I was hoping to find the full album on YouTube, but I did find this Beat Club performance from 1972 instead. Smile

^ Yes, I believe some of The Mike Flowers Pops songs featured in the Austin Powers movies. They're pretty good though, for a parody band.  Smile

^ I thought so too. The Mike Flowers Pops also did  a great cover version of Oasis' "Wonderwall" which I posted in another thread, and from my point of view, it's much better than the original version by the Gallagher brothers. Smile

Yes, The Mike Flowers Pops are actually a parody of the sixties band, Harpers Bizarre. Notice the resemblance between the two blonde-haired frontmen.  Smile
