{"product_id":"the-doors-13","title":"The Doors - 13","description":"\u003cp\u003eReleased in 1970 as The Doors' first compilation, 13 gathers exactly that many songs from a band at the height of its dark, dangerous powers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt arrived while Jim Morrison was still alive and the group was riding high on the bluesy rebirth of Morrison Hotel, offering a neat summary of a run of albums that had changed the sound of American rock. Paul A. Rothchild's original productions capture Ray Manzarek's swirling organ, Robby Krieger's flamenco-tinged guitar and John Densmore's jazz-schooled drumming in all their glory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Light My Fire\" opens the set with its baroque organ intro and Morrison's smouldering vocal, and \"People Are Strange\" brings a woozy, carnival-like melancholy. \"Roadhouse Blues\" kicks up dust with raw, boozy energy, while \"The Unknown Soldier\" closes things on a stark, theatrical anti-war statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn between, the set moves from crooning ballads to stomping blues, a reminder of how much ground the band covered in just four years together on record. Heard in one sitting, it makes a compelling case for the Doors as one of the most adventurous groups of their era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor collectors, it captures how the band looked and sounded in its own time, just before Morrison's death turned the story into myth, and the original sequence still flows beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57165879017777,"sku":"603497847044","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/The_Doors-13_f2cca85d-f802-4956-a252-b584239cb301.jpg?v=1793188163","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/the-doors-13","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
