The Doors were founded by Ray Manzarek and Jim Morrison in Los Angeles in 1965. They released their eponymous debut album, which contained their hit single Light My Fire, in 1967 and went on to be one of the most controversial and influential rock acts of the sixties. Jim Morrison's early death in Paris in 1971 only served to fuel their legend and both he and the band have continued to enjoy iconic status for more than thirty years.
This incredible performance of Light My Fire is from the Eagle Vision DVD "Live in Europe", which is available now.
The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California due to a chance meeting by vocalist Jim Morrison and keyboardist Ray Manzarek. They were later on accompanied by drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger. At their time they were considered a controversial band, due mostly to Morrison's wild, poetic lyrics and enthusiastic, yet chaotic stage persona. However, their lasting influence on modern music is uncontestable. After Morrison's death on July 3, 1971, the remaining members continued as a threesome until disbanding in 1973.
Despite a career that barely totaled eight years, The Doors still have an enormous fanbase as well as status in the mainstream music industry as being hugely influential and original. According to the RIAA, they have sold over 32.5 million albums in the US alone
