Waiting for the Sun is the Doors' third album, a 1968 collection that gave them their second number one single and showed a band stretching in several directions at once, here in its CD edition.
Recording was a struggle. The group had burned through much of its early song stockpile on the first two albums, and Jim Morrison's ambitious poetic piece "Celebration of the Lizard" was set aside during the sessions. What emerged instead is shorter, stranger and more varied than its predecessors, swinging between light pop, flamenco flourishes and some of their most pointed political songs.
"Hello, I Love You" is the hit, a strutting, fuzzed-out earworm that topped the American charts. "The Unknown Soldier" tackles the Vietnam War with sound effects and theatrical menace, while "Spanish Caravan" lets Robby Krieger show off his classical and flamenco guitar skills. The album closes with "Five to One," a heavy, sneering challenge that remains one of Morrison's most quoted moments.
Softer songs like "Love Street" offer gentle relief between the darker moments.
It's sometimes seen as a transitional album, but there's a lot of brilliance packed into its eleven songs. This is the Doors at their most eclectic, and still well worth the trip.
