The Doors L.A. Woman: 2021 Remaster

2021 Remaster

Released shortly before Jim Morrison's death in Paris, 1971's L.A. Woman was the first Doors album to not feature production from long time collaborater Paul Rothchild. The rawer, more live feel marks a return to the blues roots from which the band originally emerged and it delivered the signature songs "Love Her Madly," "Riders On The Storm" and the title track. Veteran rock journalist David Fricke wrote: "Morrison may never have come back to The Doors. But with his death, L.A. Woman became rebirth, achievement, and finale, all at once. It's the blues too – original blues, as Morrison promised. Fifty years later, there is still nothing like it."
