Customer Reviews:

Serves as a nice "best-of" collection.......2006-01-24

Don't be fooled - basically if you pay the extra fee for this imported CD you're not getting exclusive film content. It's not Val Kilmer singing the songs or anything. It's just music from The Doors' CDs - and for around the same price, you can get the best Doors compilation out there - "The Best of the Doors."

However, this still serves as a nice little collection of Doors tracks, and also includes three "songs" from Morrison's American Prayer (which is basically poetry that was recorded prior to his death, that the remaining bandmembers put music to and sold as a Doors album).

All in all, don't go out of your way to get this unless you're a completist, because all the stuff is available on other albums. But it's still very good just in terms of being a compilation.

The music is about to begin..........2003-01-08

Great soundtrack to a good movie. This really serves as a basic "best of" with a few extra's. Half of this is the big songs you would expect, but what I like is the inclusion of "love street", and 3 tracks from the "American Prayer" album: "ghost song", "stoned immaculate", and "the severed garden". Plus you have the Velvet Underground track "heroin", and Carmina Burana. Also a cool little clip from the movie starts it all off. Why this is an import now I don't know. I guess all the Doors hype of the early 90's is long past. It was fun while it lasted. At least we'll always have the music.

The Great Doors and More Awesome Music!.......2001-08-07

This soundtrack has a great selection of the Doors best hits. It also features a song by The Velvet Underground which is a wonderful band much like the stylings of the Doors.

Doors' Classics!.......2001-07-20

This is the original soundtrack out of the doors movie. It features many of their classic songs, nothing you haven't already heard. Also, includes a song from the Velvet Underground "Heroin", and "Carmina Burana" performed by the Atlanta Symphony. As well with a few of Jim Morrison's spoken poems.

I think this album will be a good addition to any rock n' roll collection and a pretty good introduction of the doors, for those out there who aren't too familiar with their work.

If it's The Doors, it's 5 stars!.......2001-06-27

Since The Doors are on this CD, it has to have a 5 star rating. This CD takes songs from a few different Doors CDs, most being the more popular Doors songs you hear on the radio. The addition of 'Love Street' was very fitting and welcome. As well, some of Jim's spoken word that was put to music after his death (as featured on An American Prayer) is here. The Velvet Underground gives us 'Heroin'; a great song; very ominous given the context that it appears on this CD. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus perform the haunting 'Carmina Burana'.

This is a good CD, but the facts are that you are not going to get any unreleased material on this disc. You can collect all of The Doors' CDs and Jim's An American Prayer and have most of the songs that appear here. Velvet Underground and Carmina Burana are the exceptions. It's still a good disc, but maybe you should buy other Doors CDs first.

Excuse me while I go light a few more incense sticks for the Jim shrine...
