Woman by Eoin315 Even if you only listen to three songs on this album, make it "L.A. Woman", "Riders on the Storm" and "Love Her Madly". The other songs are good but completly overshadowed by the two epics on this album. "L.A Woman" paints a vivid picture of the both the bright and dark side of L.A. My favourite is "Riders on the Storm". The end is near, and Jim Morrison knows it. He is telling us that that we are only insignificant pawns in a much bigger chess game. That game is life and death. We should live life to the full, because either the "storm" or the "killer on the road" coulld take us at any time. Absolute heaven if you listen to it in the small hours of the morning.

Woman by thedoorsfan187 The Doors deliver probably their best album (I'm still deciding on which is their best: This one or their debut) and gives us a bluesy sound that's been seen on "Morrison Hotel" but they top it with this one. This is jammed pack with great songs and there's not a single one I dare to skip. But now the Doors have driven away a bit from their psychadelic roots and just delivers a good ol' rock n'roll album. And now, Jim is drunk but his voice isn't the sensual and seductive voice girls loved. His voice is worn and craggy, but it fits so well with this album. His voice may be weary, but he still manages to give us more stories to hear one last time. Sometimes, he'll be angry (Been Down So Long), but most of the time, he just seems to be having fun. The final track, "Riders on the Storm," is the one song Jim seems to be serious on. He knows his time is up, and he delivers his trademark poetic, disturbing, and prophetic story... nothing like he's done since "The End" on the band's first album. From psychadelic, to experimenting with brass, and ending with blues, the Doors changed quite a bit with their short years of being a band. And their music continues to be remembered for generations to come. Was this review helpful? Sign In 0 out of 0 users found this helpful  The Doors bestPosted: 5/26/2004A review of L.A. Woman by Anonymous Jim Morrison was overrated as an artist, though not so as a preposterous drunk. However, all his hip posing took a back seat on this album, as his love of the blues took hold and got his mojo working. Mr. Mojo Rising hit his groove in his last gasp. This is a sleazy, bluesy, boozy album with some great tracks. I was never a big fan of these guys or of the hype that surrounded them, but they sure got it right on this one. Drunken wacked-out brilliance. Was this review helpful? Sign In 14 out of 15 users found this helpful The Final and Possibly the BestPosted: 8/16/2002A review of L.A. Woman by qbeezer This final album with Jim Morrison is possibly one of the best by the Doors. A lot of the songs sound very bluesy and i think that's what makes this a great album because Jim had the right voice to sing the blues, not to mention that keyboard player Ray Manzarek grew up in Chicago. Popular songs from this album include Lover her madly (used in Forrest Gump), L.A. Woman, and Riders on the Storm. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-5 of 5 Per Page |
