    Yeah is it in a silver looking box set? Yes they were some live cds in there too I think that's the one I was given by my ex wife. One of the best gifts she ever gave me, now I just have to find it. I certainly hope she didn't take it back. :( ;) :(

    It's unreal how much great music The Doors made. But my favorite was The End from the first time I heard it. But , maybe at first it was because I was in high school, high and watching The Doors movie. Not to mention the crazy last scene in Apocalypse Now when Captain Willard killed Colonel Kurtz. One of the best uses of rock music in cinematic history, if not the best.

    The one I've got as well...hope you find it

    I found it buried under cd's, dvd's, cassettes and my old 8 track tapes. :D It's no wonder I couldn't find it.

    Let's just say that The End by The Doors is better than The End by Pearl Jam...

    I can't narrow it down between "Five to One" and "When the Music's Over." I've been on a big Doors kick lately. Can't wait to see the new documentary "When You're Strange."
