Free Music Notes for Very Best of the Doors

Free Music Review: A great place to start for new fans.
Hit: 5 Stars

This is a great place to start if you are just getting started with the Doors, but for those of us who who are old fans this is just another "best of" package.
Let's take a look...
"Break On Through"-a staple of "greatest hits" packages since 1972's "Weird Scenes Inside the Gold Mine". This is a great addition also, because it doesn't have those annoying edits in the middle (Jim says "she gets high" on this disc but the others are edited to just "she get")
"Light My Fire"-another radio/greatest hits staple ever since "13" released in 1970(now out-of-print).
"People Are Strange"-another fan favorite since "13".
"Riders On the Storm"-long hailed as one of the band's signature "epics" this is another greatest hits staple.
"LA Woman"-the rorsach test of Door's fans: if you love this song, you'll love the Doors; if you hate it you're likley just a casual fan.
"Love Her Madly"-another popular tune-heard on "Forrest Gump" from the "LA Woman" album.
"Back Door Man"-a rare Doors' cover tune popular in concert and on greatest hits sets.
"Touch Me"-the only hit single from the "Soft Parade" album. Another radio/greatest hit.
"Hello,I Love You"-by far the most over-played Doors' song- and deservedly so.
"Love Me Two Times"-also very popular, a greatest hits favorite.
-up until this point the songs have been mostly staples of greatest hits discs and radio favorites, but this part is what makes this CD unique-
"Twentieth Century Fox"-a relitavely unknown song, this is its first greatest hits apperance, but also a great song.
"The Crystal Ship"-a great song that is also a nice change of pace, very psychadellic, very good.
"The WASP"-a nice addition to this set, a great example of Jim Morrison's better poetry put to music.
"Peace Frog"-a rare occurence on best of sets. Arguably the best track from "Morrison Hotel/Hard Rock Cafe" thankfully, however the semi-connected "Blue Sunday" was left off.
"The End"-here in all eleven minutes and fourty-four seconds of its glory, unlike the origional "Greatest Hits" disc which had the "Apocalypse Now" version.
"Roadhouse Blues"(live)- a great example of the Doors' onstage power. This is the edited version from a New York concert, on the "Box St" (on the un-edited version, Jim tells the audience that, "everything is ... up, as usual" right before the start.
This is, like I already said, a good starting point, but there were some questionable exclusions,as there were about 9 minutes left at the end of the disc here are some songs that were left out:
"When the Music's Over"
"Unknown Solidier"
"Ship Of Fools"
"Moonlight Drive"
"Roadhouse Blues"(studio version)
"Shaman's Blues"
"Waiting For the Sun"
"Spanish Caravan"
but still a good compilation!
