Great drummer. They were all great. Manzarek on keys/bass and especially Robby Krieger with that unforgettable riff- and the solo.

[@VincentPhason]

My friend who is a gifted musician told me: Peace Frog. One of the best bass grooves ever from a band with no bass player! My ears are bad as I am older but I did not hear the bass? Still a great band and fantastic song. It makes me realize just how good Rush was being 3 gents playing multiple instruments simultaneously for 40 years!. Still love the doors though! Thank you!

[@civilroman]

He was probably talking about the studio cut, there's bass on that, but they didn't have a live bass player which is why you don't hear it in this one

[@Moneyandcarsandhoes]

I know what you mean but there’s definitely bass there. To me it sound like they had some session bass player who didn’t know the line, but I only heard 1 keyboard. So imagine ray forgot the bassline and improvised on low volume.

[@lecochonquivole]

Hi, per my comments above the Doors [nearly] always used a bass guitarist in the studio and [nearly] never did onstage, hence a bass-led track like PF sounding quite different live.

You can judge the quality of a group on how well they can make their live performance sound as good as the recording

[@JohnnyMacalvee-cf7et]

Not really. I don't need every song to sound exactly as it did on the record. Even Robbie stated his best solos were NOT on the records. Then there are peeps like me when a band extends a tune...make it different. But, the quality must be good.

Keep in mind Ray Manzarek is playing the regular organ part and a bass organ. I wondered how this would sound with out electric bass like the studio version. It sounds great. As far as I know the Doors didn't play live with a bass guitar player.

[@cameirotorpedo5861]

Isn't a bass organ, he plays Fender Rhodes Piano Bass

[@johnpastore7685]

No they didn't. They actually had a woman bass player, when they were starting out.

I think they wanted to take their studio bass player out on tour to support LA Woman which we all know never happened...

When the music’s over they turned out the light. You could write a book on why pop music seemed, or maybe actually was, better in the late 1960’s to early 1970’s. The emergence of rap was just the final admission that we’ve run out of decent musical ideas.

As eccentric as Jim Morrison was, he possessed a poetic genius in such lyrics as: "Ghost crowd the child's fragile egg- shell mind"; in reference to a scene he witnessed in his youth of a bus crash that left native Indian people lying dead on the highway.

[@ollihp]

That story's been a bit exaggerated according to his family members but doesn't take away his poetic genius.

[@klemkadiddlekopper]

How about;" Blood stained the blade that chopped off my finger, blood will be born in "The birth of a nation", blood is the rose of mysterious union (blood- brother), blood is on the rise and following me." Is Morrison talking of the sixty's riots or abortion?

[@mrmojorisin8752]

The lyric is based on a Jim poem on abortion, but clearly he modified it to focus on the 60s. Embarrassing the Robbie didn’t understand this. Blood in the streets of the town of New Haven refers to Jim’s arrest there, not a frickin’ abortion!
