4 out of 5 stars Telling it like it was.......2002-08-06

All four Doors are interviewed by British rock journalist John Tobler, who has authored two books on The Doors and many other books on rock music. Ray Manzarek's interview is the most extensive, and he is the most articulate. His comments serve as a narrative on The Doors' history as well as offering insights into the group. He, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore were interviewed in 1979, around the time of the start of The Doors' revival. Jim Morrison, however, was interviewed at Britain's Woodstock of sorts, The 1970 Isle of Wight Festival, where The Doors performed. Jim's interview includes some of his thoughts on Woodstock, where The Doors were a noteworthy omission, as well as on The Isle of Wight Festival and The Doors' legendary performance at The Roundhouse in London in 1968. I am a big Doors fan, extremely well versed on them, and while some of the stuff discussed in the interviews and random snippets is old hat, other things are new to me, giving me more insight into this great group. Yes, The Doors were about life and love, not just darkness, says Ray. I really enjoyed this CD.

5 out of 5 stars great interview.......2002-06-07

4 out of 5 stars Just Listen.......2000-01-06

All of the interviews were interesting to any fan of The Doors. Jim Morrison is a very intriguing person who was misunderstood by many. Ray is very intelligent along with the other members; and as for Robby and John, well I this interview adds to the very little knowledge that I have about them. I recommend this disk to any and every fan of The Doors. They are all GREAT musicians and I applaud the surviving Doors for continuing with their music. Music is a DOORway to another realm.(I think so anyway) KG:o}
