In this episode, we discuss the Doors' eponymous debut album in celebration of the 55th anniversary of its January 4, 1967 release. I have a longer personal history with this album than any other and it remains one of my favourites, so it was a real joy to dive into it so deeply. My brother, Spencer Cropper, stops by to share his thoughts as well.
