L.A Woman Song Facts: Morrison recorded his vocals in the studio bathroom to get a fuller sound. He spent a lot of time in there anyway because of all the beer he drank during the sessions. Morrison got the idea for the "City of Night" lyric from John Rechy's 1963 book of the same name. The book describes a sordid world of sexual perversion, which Morrison translated to Los Angeles. The first line, "Well, I did a little down about an hour ago," is a reference to a barbituate, specifically Rorer 714. Doors drummer John Densmore said in the The Story of L.A. Woman documentary: "The metaphor for the city as a woman is brilliant: cops in cars, never saw a woman so alone - great stuff. It's metaphoric, the physicality of the town and thinking of her and how we need to take care of her, it's my hometown."

Having grown up in LA, this song captures the mood. Imagine driving the freeways in LA while Morrison is singing ‘Driving down your freeways’. He was a transplant from Florida. Went to UCLA. Fell in love with LA and it’s women. Where the hills burn on a regular basis. It can be beautiful. It can be dirty and gritty. I watch whenever I’m in the mood to watch I guess. 😎

This song, and the entire album actually, benefitted from having Jerry Sheff on bass instead of relying on Manzarek's Rhodes bass keyboard. Even though there's not a lot of variation in this bass line, it drives the song very well and allows Manzarek's piano and Krieger's guitar to fill the spaces so well.

I never hear anyone bring up the bittersweet quality of this song. Sure, it's one hell of a ride (don't play it in your car unless you want a ticket...) and the playing throughout is jubilant and uplifting, but it's also a song that metaphorizes Los Angeles as a lost, lonely and broken woman, who is "so alone". To me, the song represents urban alienation, something that I know only too much about. And the music, albeit a "love letter" to L.A., doesn't hide the fact that the lyrics are sadly observing the city's seedy underbelly. 5-star song. Fantastic. Even Morrison's drunken slur of a vocal can't ruin it. If anything, it makes the song sound more authentic!

And with the history of L.A. this switch-up you mentioned fits the theme perfectly...just like that dark bluesy part. Billy Idol had a nice cover version of this song. He is a huge doors fan and even had a cameo in Oliver Stone´s "The Doors".

cool thing about morrison's lyrics by this point was they were more concise & less abstract. yet they were very dense w/ symbolic meaning & depth. more blake or whitman like then his early poetry. imo, more directly powerful. You could take a lot of lines out of this, but 2 passages that are so spot on about our culture are: motel, money, murder, madness. tight alliteration & densely packed. motel implies no ownership. money the lifeblood to feed the beast (addiction, greed or to flaunt) at all costs. murder is the limit and means people will go to in such a dangerous & paranoid landscape. & madness reflects how combustive its potential is to destroy the community or the nations body. the 60's was a violent period wh/ by the early 70s had hollowed people out. those lyrics capture it well... the other one is: never saw a woman so alone. a wealthy city where power was built around what you can get outside--> in vs inside--> out. that atmosphere breeds envy, narcissism, materialism & greed. it can bring the lucky ones wealth & fame but leave them & the masses also hollow & always in need of someone elses approval.... very insightful views on our modern western culture & its pulse, wh/ cyclically hasnt changed much, if at all. maybe worse. & perhaps that is what haunted him vision wise.

this song not only creates a cinematic atmosphere & feel, it also lays out a poetic narrative.... broad canyon winding scape mixed w/ cornered in modern urban film noir blues. All of that built around a large scale symbolic poetic perimeter... all the musicians are at their best here, but I think densmore, the drummer, is the most important component b/c he controls the pace of all the crucial switches. visually morrison made LA into a female form in wh/ the hiways drew the form & led the viewer to different regions of the city. its different moods & visual feel. but to do that you had to go around the winding roads, exit off the freeways & delve into the dense tight urban ghetto & the grand wealthy beverly hills, then back onto the fast freeway & thru the canyons & out to the desert. all the different moods of the city are there, the greed, the narcissism, the dangerous urban paranoia & violence, the fast paced movement thru suburbs.none of that happens feel & dynamic wise w/o densmore changing pace & leading the way. he was like the pencil drawing out the form direction wise following morrison's vision.... its one of their greatest works matched by riders for many of the same reasons.

I usually watch in the afternoon or evening after I'm done driving my truck for the day. Glad you mentioned Densmore. As great as the song is, top to bottom, everyone involved, I think my favorite is his drumming in the mojo risin' section. The way it builds, and he just is going nuts by the time they get back to the original groove. And I shouldn't give anything away, but the next song is a bit different. Also maybe my second favorite on the album, after this title track.
