Synopsis
In 1967, when the Doors broke on through to rock success, that achievement represented more than just another trend in pop music. The band’s catchy hit tunes and its charismatic lead singer, Jim Morrison, may have lit fires in the hearts of teenage girls across the country, but at the same time devoted fans came to look forward to Doors albums as messages from the front in what seemed to be a great cultural war. The Doors were, said Morrison, “erotic politicians”. In THE DOORS, William Ruhlman looks at the story of Morrison and the Doors and at the times in which their career was played out, as well as at the legacy they have spawned. Including 70 black-and-white and 30 color photographs, THE DOORS provides a glimpse into the circumstances that shaped one of the seminal rock bands of the 1960s, a band whose music can be heard almost as often today as it was more than 50 years ago.
