Description: The Doors On Track by Tony Thompson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book dusts off the vinyl and puts on the headphones for a sustained reappraisal of The Doors musical career. Hidden gems, deep cuts, overrated top ten hits, and the enigmatic series of album closers are all subjected to late night interrogations. Publisher Description The Doors remain one of the most original acts in the history of Rock and Roll. However, their actual music is sometimes overshadowed by the cult of Jim Morrison. Those with long memories will recall a point in the 80s when he went from lead singer of an old band to a signifier of cool known as Morrison. His image appeared everywhere on t-shirts, posters, and in the film The Lost Boys, adorning a wall in Keifer Sutherlands vampire cave. A biopic in the 1990s attempted something like realism but managed only to dramatise the legend of the Lizard King. Meanwhile, outside of a few high rotation tracks on classic rock stations, most of their work took a back seat to Jims ever-growing status as a cultural icon. This book dusts off the vinyl and puts on the headphones for a sustained reappraisal of the bands musical career. Hidden gems, deep cuts, overrated top ten hits, and the enigmatic series of album closers are all subjected to late night interrogations. Lets head to Venice Beach circa 1965, pick up a Fender bass organ on the way, take a face from the ancient gallery and walk on down the hall!
