The Doors were an American rock band that was formed in 1965 in LA California. The bands original members consisted of vocalist Jim Morrison, drummer John Densmore, keyboardist Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robby Krieger. The band was very controversial back in the 60's mainly due to Jim's crazy lifestyle, and very poetic lyrics.
They released their self-titled debut album in January 1967, "Light My Fire" was the single from the album that really sparked the beginning of the band's success. The Doors released 5 more studio albums before the tragic death of Jim Morrison in 1971, he was found dead in an apartment bathtub in Paris, no autopsy was performed.
The Doors, in my opinion, were a very unique and different band. Just when the hippie era was exploding, the doors were becoming one of the biggest bands of all time. They're music is awesome, poetic and very meaningful. If you haven't heard any of their music, your definitely missing out...
