*******************

The Doors channel is the official YouTube home of classic Doors live performances, The Doors albums, and contemporary performances and content honoring The Doors featuring John Densmore and Robby Krieger.

With an intoxicating, genre-blending sound, provocative and uncompromising songs, and the mesmerizing power of singer Jim Morrison’s poetry and presence, The Doors had a transformative impact not only on popular music but on popular culture.

The Doors’ arrival on the rock scene in 1967 marked not only the start of a string of hit singles and albums that would become classics, but also of something much bigger – a new and deeper relationship between creators and audience. Refusing to be mere entertainers, the Los Angeles quartet relentlessly challenged, confronted and inspired their fans, leaping headfirst into the heart of darkness while other bands warbled about peace and love. Though they’ve had scores of imitators, there’s never been another band quite like them.

Definitely one of the best doors songs that shows off Robby's diverse skill. He might not be the flashiest rock guitarist, but he's certainly one of the best.

If I had a time machine this would be one of my top 5 concerts to go to

[vibrantdragon]

Fun fact: this song is actually a classical piece called "Asturias"

[Ameriken]

John Densmore is such an underrated drummer

[dakshshaan]

How can someone say that they are overrated, it’s been more than 50 years since Jim died and the people of new generation sill love and praise them. The doors are timeless, one of the greatest rock band In the history of rock music

Robbies Flamenco guitar training really flies off the screen live

[jobmancillar.]

This is one of my favorite concerts of The Doors.

[doomgloom]

Robbie Krieger great guitarist. The whole band is top notch. ✌🎹 / \ 🎸 🎤

[Weebay_]

Ray Manzarek was a beast on those keys, and bass

This song takes me back to a time when The Vietnam “conflict” both divided my family and brought it together. One older brother a “hippie” and one a Marine in country fighting some of the bloodiest battles of Vietnam. I chose to write about it as a pre-journalism major. One brother was angry all the time. Music, like the Doors, we all enjoyed! ✌️❤️

One of my favorite songs ever! Ever ever. Feel like a pirate!

[connorbushert]

A sheer masterpiece. The Doors road the wave of infinite musical ether, just channeling everything. Such beautiful souls to have come together. Truly a one of a kind band, one of the greats that cannot be replicated

[kimschubert]

Just pure talent these guys had! Anyone who got the chance to see them live is so lucky! Wish I was one of those people.

The level of musical skill with these 20 year olds is unreal. Way advanced and tapped in a vein of creativity I wish so badly I could have just a bit more of for my own musical journey. A full biography and detailed accounts of how each developed their own music and how it came to be, would be super amazing. The details of how they got so creative, drugs and all. Please 🙏🙏 Let us have some 🤣🤘😎

I saw the Doors live at my Brand New high school, our brand new John F Kennedy Football stadium, just before Jim Morrison got busted at his last gig for a while in new haven Connecticut back in 1968 ..This video is exciting to find ! A Live Recording that I have not seen or heard before ...and this is a fantastic recording of Spanish Caravan, ,,one of my favorites !

I just listened to 4 people playing this and even all couldn't sound as good as 1 Robby. Love this song.

Carry me, caravan, take me away
Take me to Portugal, take me to Spain
Andalucia with fields full of grain
I have to see you again and again
Take me, Spanish caravan
Yes, I know you can
Trade winds find Galleons lost in the sea
I know where treasure is waiting for me
Silver and gold in the mountains of Spain
I have to see you again and again
Take me, Spanish caravan
Yes, I know you can

[Diego]

Posiblemente la mejor versión en vivo de esta canción.

[cinemahistory]

Unforgettable! An Eternal Masterpiece! 🚪🚪🚪🚪

Great indeed and so were the 60's and that's why it's called...Psychedelic Rock. Nothing like this will ever be recorded again.
