Customer Reviews

The Doors

Bought for my 18 year-old grandson who loves all music of that era and enjoys the book immensely.

Excellent Songbook

The Hal Leonard Company really did an excellent job in putting together this songbook. Most if not all of the music in this book is letter accurate. Many of the songs have the solos written out so a keyboard player does not have to work very hard. Light My Fire is a rare exception but I doubt any source would ellaborate on the four minute instrumental solo.What's interesting here is that songs from the Other Voices LP are included in this songbook. Other Voices is the first Doors record that was released after Jim Morrison died. It features the vocals of Robbie Kreiger and Ray Manzarek. Too bad that record is so difficult to find. Also included are stories about the Doors music/recording history as well as an interview with Robbie Krieger.Overall an excellent resource for musicians who like the Doors.
