Wonderfully corrosive & equal parts psychedelic. It dances like a lively fireplace.

A perfect debut, they had set the bar high with this album. Few of my favorite Doors' songs are on here: Light my Fire, The End, The Crystal Ship, Break on Through... Really amazing.

wicked. I just blasted this on a bottle of wine tonight and it seemed more unapologetically evil than ever. "you men eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans, I eat more chicken than any man's ever seen, 'cause I'm a backdoor man!" he revels in this shit.

"father? 'yes son?'-I-want-to-kill-you... mother?... I want to.... [unintelligible raving]."

this record is the face of evil. in the most brilliant ways possible.

One of the best debuts ever. The first 7 tracks are at least very good. Break on Through and Light My Fire are arguably their best songs. Tracks 8-10 I would describe as filler. The End is amazing.

OK, this album turns 50 today and it's unbelieveable! The Doors' debut still sounds fresh now, more fresh than many albums released later.

From chivocosmico 11/29/2016 01:44
A drunk poet, a classically-trained pianist, a flamenco guitarist, a jazz drummer and no bassist at all: the Doors were just destined to be unique. All four members of the band took the different traditions of their diverse musical backgrounds and applied them within a rock context, making possible some absolutely brilliant moments such as the bossanova clave that drives most of 'Break On Through' and the Bach-inspired organ introduction to 'Light My Fire', one of Manzarek's finest achievements. The double acid attack of Krieger and Manzarek provided the perfect atmosphere for Morrison's esoteric prose and improvisational poetry passages, as spidery guitar licks and quirky organ riffs drunkenly dance their way into your skull, resulting in one of the most electrifying records of the psychedelic era.

The album is essentially a "greatest hits". Great album from start to finish. God Bless Jim Morrison

A bit hit and miss, but the hits are mind-blowing. The End in particular.
