Let me make this clear: Jim Morrison was a terrible lyricist. Having said that, this was a cracking album to get on a sweltering Saturday. If you can ignore the terrible lyrics, The Doors is a tight and inventive 1960s rock band. Ray Manzarek is a stand-out but the dynamic between the band members is great. They must have been extraordinary live. The obvious big-hitters are here - Light My Fire and Break On Through - but the Brecht/Weil cover (Alabama Song) and the whimsical The Crystal Ship shine brightly. On the other hand, their cover of Backdoor Man sees Morrison posturing and pouting in the worst possible way. An album that's undeniably great but not perfect.
