Doors Rare OZ ST LP EX MONO ’67 Gold Elektra EKL4007 Psyche Rock Jim Morrison

Doors

Doors

Super Rare Original OZ LP released in 1967 on the Gold & White Elektra Label. Cat: EKL4007. This album is in MONO. This is the first Aussie MONO version I’ve come across of this wonderful album quite different to listen to and much rarer than the stereo version. It was common for the MONO albums to appear in the stereo sleeve during this period as is the case here.

These lovely titles are as small part of a recent collection that I will be listing over the next few months. Some extremely rare and wonderful titles amongst them...

A tremendous debut album, and indeed one of the best first-time outings in rock history, introducing the band's fusion of rock, blues, classical, jazz, and poetry with a knock-out punch. The lean, spidery guitar and organ riffs interweave with a hypnotic menace, providing a seductive backdrop for Jim Morrison's captivating vocals and probing prose. "Light My Fire" was the cut that topped the charts and established the group as stars, but most of the rest of the album is just as impressive, including some of their best songs: the propulsive "Break on Through" (their first single), the beguiling Oriental mystery of "The Crystal Ship," the mysterious "End of the Night," "Take It as It Comes" (one of several tunes besides "Light My Fire" that also had hit potential), and the stomping rock of "Soul Kitchen" and "Twentieth Century Fox." The 11-minute Oedipal drama "The End" was the group at its most daring and, some would contend, overambitious.

Tracks: Break on through (to the other side)/ Soul kitchen/ The crystal ship/ twentieth century fox/ Alabama song (whisky bar)/ Light my fire/ Back door man/ I looked at you/ End of the night/ Take it as it comes/ The end.

There are some light spindle marks on labels. Record has some light scuff marks that cause some light crackles mostly only noticeable between tracks. Record is in Excellent condition. Cover is fully intact with only light ring wear and a few light marks on back, also some tiny surface tears around edges. Cover is in VG++ condition.
