The Doors – L.A. Woman

More of the Music of The Doors

  • An L.A. Woman like you’ve never heard, with solid Double Plus (A++) sound from start to finish
  • This early pressing is huge, lively and rich, with in-the-room vocal presence that no Heavy Vinyl pressing can begin to offer
  • Here is the big Bruce Botnick sound we love
  • If all you know are the various Heavy Vinyl versions, this excellent copy will show you just what you’ve been missing
  • 4 1/2 stars:”The seven-minute title track was a car-cruising classic that celebrated both the glamour and seediness of Los Angeles; the other long cut, the brooding, jazzy ‘Riders on the Storm,’ was the group at its most melodic and ominous.”
  • If you’re a Doors fan, and what audiophile wouldn’t be?, this title from 1971 clearly belongs in your collection
