Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The Best of The Doors delivers exactly what it promises. Rather than relying solely on the hits, this collection also mines the darker, and often richer, recesses of The Doors material resulting in a fairly representative statement. The hits are here: "Light My Fire" with Ray Manzarek's keyboards on a dizzy, psychedelic spree; "People Are Strange," with Morrison's tortured psyche barely being held in check; "L.A. Woman," with its bluesy sexuality. More important, favorites of fans are here, like the controversially (at the time) explicit "The End," which was one of the first of Morrison's forays into narrative poetry. In hits like "Break on Through," "Hello I Love You," "Roadhouse Blues," and others, The Doors melded psychedelia, blues, hard-edged rock, and poetry from the edge like no other band before. The Best of The Doors is a trip in every sense of the word. --Steve Gdula

Rating: - Ish. They still stink....
Alright, I'm just gonna come out and say it. JM sucked. He spent most of his creative life in a drug and alcohol induced stupor while conning his vapid lyrics and self-indulgent poetry off on his fellow hippie brethren as art. His poetic ability reaches its height with his rhyming of the words road and toad. He loved to play into that whole Lizard King garbage while in reality he was nothing more than a cheesy cornball pervert. Put this album on and you can smell the stale pot, mold spores and cheap ...

Rating: - Riding On The Storm ~ Activating The Libidinal Forces Within The Mystical, Musical Body
Probably the most amazing thing about music is its ability to speak to different aspects of the inner self. It can inspire one to lofty ecstatic visions, elicit fits of joyous laughter, plummet one into the depths of melancholy and despair just to name a few. When I listen to the music and lyrics of `The Doors' something always kicks into motion that is unique to this band, to give this dark, overshadowing feeling a name I'll label it "libidinal energy", all the while understanding that I'm writing about ...

Rating: - Flawless classic rock art
It's difficult for me to speculate how many hundreds of times I've played this double CD set but I'll just say "often, for many years". "The Best of The Doors" represents the very essence of Classic Rock music of the turbulent 60s.

The Doors generated a unique, incredibly palatable sound, apart from all others. While this caveat probably exuded from "theater" as much as it did from musical innovation, the band's keyboard player, Ray Manzarek, was clearly as responsible for the brilliance of ... Read More

Rating: - Oozing The Morrison
I live just down the street from the Whiskey and I swear when you walk in that place you still feel Jim's presence, I also take everyone who ever comes to visit to Venice Beach where there is a giant mural of Jim painted on the side of an apartment building and I drink Strongbow's at Barney's Beanery where Jim planted his hot bootie night after night - to me Jim and the Doors represent a very interesting part of LA history, but for some reason this is the first time I've actually owned a Doors CD - and I ...
