Free Music Notes for Strange Days
Free Music Review: The very best of their oeurve
Hit: 5 Stars
There are great Doors albums, but "Strange Days" is in a class by itself. Many second albums are problematic because there was a lifetime to make the first, and 2 months in the midst of a tour to write and record the second. "Strange Days" was helped by solid writing, musicianship and great production (including the graphics-the cover is beautiful). In retrospect, the songwriting combination was a one-two punch of Morrison and Kreiger. Guitarist Robbie Krieger, author of "Light My Fire" also wrote "Love Me Two Times" and other great gems. His symbiotic creative relationship with Morrison was bedrock for Doors material. All four of them made the tune into a track, hence the collective writing credit. I saw much of this album performed live in 1968. It was a great show. Great album. Incidentally, people ARE strange when you're a stranger, but you knew that.
Strange Days Poster
Even darker than their purple-hued debut, the Doors' follow-up, Strange Days, closed 1967 with an ominous flourish. Highlighted mostly by short, radio-friendly tunes such as the bluesy "Love Me Two Times" and the cabaret-style "People Are Strange" and featuring a smattering of edgy recitations ("Horse Latitudes") and smoky rockers ("My Eyes Have Seen You"), the album features a centerpiece that was another ambitious extended track, "When the Music's Over." On it, Morrison railed at everything from organized religion to pollution, and his rallying cry--"We want the world, and we want it now!"--became a call to arms for the counterculture rising up around the band. --Billy AltmanAlternative Rock Music CDs
