The Doors - Waiting For The Sun (EKS74024) LP

Released in 1968, Waiting for the Sun is the third studio album by The Doors and a landmark in the psychedelic rock movement. The album demonstrates the band’s unique ability to combine poetic lyrics, innovative musicianship, and haunting melodies, solidifying their status as one of the most influential rock acts of the 1960s.

The LP features a mix of chart-topping singles and deep cuts. “Hello, I Love You” delivers catchy, radio-ready hooks, while “Five to One” presents a darker, rebellious energy that became an anthem of its era. “Love Street” provides a softer, melodic contrast, and “Riders on the Storm,” though appearing on later releases, reflects the band’s signature atmospheric style. Each track showcases the distinct talents of Jim Morrison, Robby Krieger, Ray Manzarek, and John Densmore.
