The Doors of the 21st Century: L.A. Woman Live
from Rolling Stone Magazine September 2, 2004
Issue #956 page 152
The Doors, reopened for business
Jim Morrison croaked before the Doors could perform L.A. Woman live, so thirty-two years later, keyboardist Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robby Krieger roped in Jim-alike Ian Astbury - who delivers a fairly expert Morrison impression - to tour the album in its entirety.
However appalling to purists this redux may be, the unabashed exuberance in Manzarek's playing proves that one man's trash is another man's closure.
