The Doors
This super deluxe reissue of the 1967 debut from The Doors is similarly formatted to Rhino's 40th anniversary edition of the Ramones' self-titled debut released last year. Across the first two discs, the original stereo and mono mixes will be included (the mono mix is presented here on CD for the first time while the stereo mix makes its first appearance since a new mix was created by engineer Bruce Botnick in 2007). A third disc includes more vintage live recordings, from San Francisco's Matrix club on April 7, 1967. These live cuts were first heard from a third-generation source on a Rhino release in 2008, but are here sourced for the first time from the original master tapes. An accompanying LP includes the mono mix, while the package is rounded out with liner notes by David Fricke and a trove of rare and unseen photos.
