You can also take this as an Alba thread post (but with clothes, sorry guys!)
Gayle McCormick and the band called Smith.
Great cover of original Shirelle's Do-wop song - with changed style.

...listening to The Doors - Morrison Hotel - Blue Sunday...

It's a real slow, mellow song.

It just happened to come on, I didn't just put it on - but it is good

I think 'Land Ho!!" is next - and that is a great freakin' song (It wasn't next....)

I haven't listened to The Doors in a while - nice change of pace!

Funny you bring up the Doors. I was speaking the other day with a friend who played in an earlier band with some of the members of The Doors, before they joined and became The Doors. Ray Manzarek and Robbie Krieger met at a Transcendental Meditation (TM) lecture along with my friend when they all started meditation. Also, Robbie Krieger had earlier studied classical guitar and Light My Fire has a little opening and closing rift from Bach. Great group.

Edit: Corrected by my friend - Ray Manzarek studied some classical and he came up with the opening rift which was from/similar to Bach.

Nice. Epic stories I bet.
Krieger is pretty underated, imo.

The solo in 'You Make Me Real'
is just a great piece (2 of 'em), with the track from the live L.P. being the best version!!

(the 55 second mark & the 1 minute 55 second mark.....---> )

Nice guitar solo and song.
Just did search on youtube and came up with this short history of Light My Fire and the Doors. I found it very interesting and fun.
