Song of the Day: LA Woman
LA Woman by The Doors. LA Woman is the title track on The Doors 6th studio album which just so happened to be released a few months prior to lead singer Jim Morrison’s death. Much like the album this song has a heavy blues influence. By this point in his career, although he was only 27, Jim Morrison’s voice had become much deeper and raspy due to the weight he had put on as well as the copious amount of drugs he had been on. In the span of 10 months Jim Morrsion was the third musician behind Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin to pass away at the age of 27. The late 60’s and early 70’s were an incredible time for music but it all came at a cost.
