The Doors - Do It [HQ]
TSP50 - That the period was - and will be - the worst for the band (for Morrison, the others were at most enjoying the band’s top success) could also be understood from the fact that for the first time the songs were not credited to all four. 4 were signed by Krieger, 4 by Jim, and this was from both of them. Both wrote beautiful songs... more intimate, dark, and irreverent from JDM, more “radio-friendly” and linear from Robby; both essential, along with Ray and Densmore, for their absolutely inimitable sound. The piece is based on a catchy guitar riff, a warm keyboard backing, and a laid-back performance from Densmore. Those in the know say there’s “a captivating scratch rhythm hook at the end of each verse, a neo-gospel bridge, and a semi-jazzed finale." A piece, in my opinion, with great potential, treated a bit like a jam without much thought. I would be curious to know if any punk band or similar has ever covered it “badly” because I think it would sound great.
