I checked out the marvelous 1970 record by the Doors, Morrison Hotel and all I can say is nice recovery.
After their previous record, The Soft Parade, I was disposed to say that there was no way they’d ever make good music again, but I was definitely wrong.
Morrison Hotel is vibrant with colorful metaphors and hard rockin’ blues.

So my friend hooked me up with a copy of The Soft Parade. The Doors’ 1969 album sounds more like Chicago than a Jim Morrison vehicle. Paul A. Rothchild goes over the top with lush horns and string arrangements, giving the bluesy rock of the Doors a very seventies early disco sound.
