Description
THE DOORS Singles hails from 2017 and is a SEALED U.S. 20 7" single box set (marked UPC). This set has not been numbered as it was intended to be used for review purposes. The Singles compiles all 20 of the singles released by The Doors beginning with the band’s 1967 debut A-side, “Break on Through (To the Other Side)” through the tracks released off their 1971-1972 post-Jim Morrison albums, 1979’s An American Prayer, and 1983’s Alive, She Cried. Not only did the single of “Break on Through” first showcase the Doors’ fusion of slinky jazz and aggressive rock, but it established their penchant for controversy when the lyric “she gets high” had to be excised for the single release and radio airplay. The suggestive “Light My Fire,” their second 45 and first of only two Number One records (the other being “Hello, I Love You”), proved that the band could push the envelope while still crafting a pure and exciting pop song. Strains of pop, rock, blues, R&B, and jazz (plus the dark side of Sunset Strip psychedelia) all informed The Doors’ discography.
This limited edition box set features 20 replica U.S. singles, with original B-sides, on 7-inch vinyl 45s with meticulously reproduced cover art and labels, presented in an ornate, lift-top box. This set collects the rare single versions from all of the band’s landmark studio albums, including:
Light My Fire - Original Mono Single Edit
Unknown Soldier - Original Unique Mono Mix/Edit
Love Me Two Times - Single Edit
Touch Me - Original Unique Stereo Single Mix
All selections have been remastered from the original analog single masters by the band’s longtime engineer/mixer Bruce Botnick. As a bonus, the box also contains a poster featuring singles covers from around the globe!
