The Doors - L.A. Woman (Full Album)

𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝙳𝚘𝚘𝚛𝚜 - 𝙻.𝙰. 𝚆𝚘𝚖𝚊𝚗 (𝟷𝟿𝟽𝟷) The vibe: gritty blues-rock and poetic noir Hot take:L.A. Woman stands as the definitive, gothic-blues farewell album. Released in 1971 just a few months before Jim Morrison’s passing, this album saw The Doors ditching the polished studio brass of their previous records to lock themselves in a makeshift rehearsal space and play raw, live-in-the-room garage blues. It’s a claustrophobic yet sprawling tribute to Los Angeles that proved no one could match their chemistry. My no skips track: "Riders on the Storm" that hypnotic, whispering Rhodes piano line from Ray Manzarek combined with the literal sound of falling rain is atmospheric perfection ꩜꩜꩜ Tracklist 00:00 The Changeling 04:20 Love Her Madly 07:40 Been Down So Long 12:23 Cars Hiss By My Window 16:35 L.A.
