I love The Doors, I never understood all the animosity towards them. Morrison Hotel and LA Woman are just as good as some Zep albums. Bluesy fucking goodness. :thu:

One of my best friends went through this whole Jim Morrison revival back in 1991. My boy is artist, great painter/sculpter. A little "airy" in the head. But Jesus Fucking Christ I wanted to beat the life out of him at the time.

Most pretentious shit ever.

If we're being serious; I'd say Zep>>>>Doors; yet I still dig the Doors. Too much organ overload at times; but they're good. I have never been nor will ever be a hippie; so there is that.

Ray was a fucking beast. Absolute fucking monster. Jim would be too fucked up to go on stage and Ray would sing the whole set while playing his parts, and sound 85% like Jim. Fucking Boss. :rawk: :bow:

I got mad respect for Ray Manzarek.

The Doors predate Zep so, yes. Have you listened to both of them or just cherry picking songs from The Doors catalog?

While I'm no fan of the Doors. I'll never deny the influence they had on Iggy Pop.

Krieger is an interesting guitar player in that technically he's not amazing, but he's creative and has such a unique style.

He was essentially a beginner guitarist. But he came up in a time when the canvas was relatively untouched. You were innovating almost regardless of what you did. I think a part of why it sounds so good is that we know it was fresh for its time.

Aside from the sheer fact that he played tastefully.

Yes. We did Not to Touch the Earth in my weirdo early 90's wtf-ever band. It was a strange song (and I like the original) but fit right in with the rest of our "repertoire" :freak: :lol:

Robbie's flamenco style, Ray's classical style, and John's jazz background made for a very unique and cool sound. I would say Doors > LZ, if only because the Doors' music was original and different. Don't get me wrong, I like LZ, but most of their catalog is a direct ripoff of Willie Dixon.

Oh, and back OT - Ministry Doors is not for me. :lol:
