WOW! This is going to be good. I've never heard of Axis TV. I hope I get it. 

When you find the channel be sure to browse the other programs.  Watched a very interesting Big Interview with Robert Plant last night that I am sure they will replay and they have half hour highlights of 'Classic Albums' that are fun.  An upcoming one on one of the greatest/most influential heavy metal albums ever made, British Steel.  Set the DVR for that as well.

Awesome!  Thanks for the heads up!

Did you watch this?
So good.  Really there were plenty of silly moments but the handful of great moments made it a wonderful watch.

I DVR it, but I'm saving it for the weekend.  I'm pretty excited to watch it. Glad to hear that it was good.

I'm gonna go through all the albums.

THE DOORS (1967). One of the iconic albums in rock history. And even though it is great and with some of the The Doors’ biggest hits, it is not my personal favorite by the band.

TRANGE DAYS (1967). Second album by The Doors and made up to an extent from songs that didn’t make it onto the debut. A great follow up half a year after the first one.

Got addicted to the Doors after seeing the movie The Doors in 1991.  It's amazing the production these guys put out!  Basically they released 6 albums in 4 years.  Glad they did because 4 years is such a short career!  I believe they sold more albums in the early 90's than they did during their 4 year run.

I've loved The Doors since the early 80s and have dragged 2 ex-girlfriends and my wife to Jim's grave on different visits to Paris (not at the same time!). I've also got a 20 year old son who is really into them too and is in a band called Spanish Caravan.

Favourite song - Shaman's Blues from The Soft Parade

I crashed my dad's car on July 3 1985 while playing my LA Woman cassette and heard from the insurance on December 8th. Is that a coincidence?

Those were the days. KISS also had 2 per year. Crazy.

WAITING FOR THE SUN (1968). Without a doubt my personal favorite. Next listen it could as easily be five stars.

THE SOFT PARADE (1969). The bands fourth album and their first dip in quality in my opinion. It still sounds like The Doors and Jims voice is as charismatic as ever - but the album is more of a wash. Many of the songs don't stay with me.

I just read through this entire thread (not being allowed to go anywhere is good for catching up). It has prompted me to download a heap of The Doors' back catalogue off of Apple Music. I got into them via their Greatest Hits on the recommendation of a friend aged 15, I never recovered.
