The making of The Doors' eponymous debut album, released in 1967. Includes the early history of The Doors, how each song developed and interviews with the three surviving members of the band.
As with most of the episodes in the Classic Albums series, a thorough, edifying look into the making of a brilliant, seminal album. This episode is particularly impressive as we get to hear how each song on the album developed, from the lips of three people who had a large hand in the making of it - Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore. Very interesting and illuminating.
We also have some rare live footage of The Doors and a reasonably good attempt to peer into the mind of the genius behind their lyrics, Jim Morrison.
