Moody, bluesy and swaggering, The Doors' L.A. Woman was the last album the band made with Jim Morrison, and this CD edition adds two bonus tracks.
By 1971, The Doors had endured scandal, courtrooms and a producer who walked out on the sessions. Rather than fold, they set up in their own rehearsal space with engineer Bruce Botnick and cut the album nearly live, with Morrison often singing in the bathroom for the echo. The result is looser and grittier than anything they had made before, a return to the blues that first brought them together.
The title track L.A. Woman is a long, driving ride through the city at night, all rolling bass and rising tension. Love Her Madly offers bright, jangling pop, while Been Down So Long digs into raw, slide-heavy blues. Then there is Riders on the Storm, the haunting closer with its rain, thunder and Ray Manzarek's misty electric piano, a final statement that still sends a shiver.
This edition adds Orange County Suite and (You Need Meat) Don't Go No Further, a bluesy number with Manzarek on vocals. Morrison died a few months after the album's release, which gives it a bittersweet weight, but mostly it sounds like a band rediscovering why they loved to play.
