I think my problem with The Doors isn't even really ol' Jimbo, it's Ray Manzarek's organ tone. I think he's playing a Vox Continental, and it's one of my least favorite keyboard sounds of the entire 1960s.

For example, this is a very good song, arguably even an excellent one. But the organ tone makes the ensemble sound so *thin*.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xg5o-t9l9Ro …

He's my favorite aspect of The Doors (as an instrumental ensemble, for sure) by far. And unlike Manzarek, his guitar tone was excellent right from the jump. His guitar solo in "Light My Fire" sounds remarkable for 1966.https://twitter.com/jamiemoulthrop/status/1296255929160212482 …

I mean, I get hating on the spoken poem interlude. It works for me, but it's pretentious as hell. But the music? Gold.
