Whats on your turntable tonight?

Hi @loomisjohnson, thanks for your post…

@bslon I'm with you on all except for strange days, which marked a notable decline from the flawed genius that came befre. Quicksilver otoh is a candidate for the goat.

While their debut album “The Doors” is terrific, to me “Strange Days” is at least its equal in content and on my system better in sound quality. Their first four albums are all fantastic but Strange Days more than the others likely earned them the title the "Kings of Acid Rock”.

No argument on the Quicksilver LP, great music and more of the “psychedelic rock” genre of the ‘60’s that I really “dig”.  :-)))

Breaking up is hard to do

@bslon, for me the doors' recorded output followed an unusual bell curve, which is to say that their debut was epochal, the next two marked a  decline, the fourth, "soft parade" was the truly terrible nadir, then the last two were a big upturn, with the finale (la woman) being almost  as strong as the debut. as for "strange days", other than "people are strange" the songs just don't connect--"love me two times" sounds like a less interesting outtake from the debut while "when the music's over" can't hold a candle to "the end". keep 'em comin....
