As aptly put by rock 'n' roll journalist extraordinaire Ben Fong-Torres, there's never been a reissue of The Doors recordings that sounded quite like these gems... And now, you can 'break on through' with all six Doors' studio albums in a deluxe box set - on Hybrid Multichannel SACD
Analogue Productions, using the original master analog sources, brings The Doors to SACD, resulting in as Doors biographer Ben Fong-Torres, esteemed rock journalist and former Rolling Stone editor, notes: ''Bottom line, a chronicle of The Doors in the studio, captured with the highest sonic quality possible.
''They deserve no less.''
All of The Doors' legendary albums - The untoppable self-titled 1967 debut The Doors, one of rock's most important debuts, Strange Days, Waiting For The Sun, The Soft Parade, Morrison Hotel, and the visceral L.A. Woman - have been remastered by Doug Sax and The Doors' original engineer Bruce Botnick, and made available on Hybrid Multichannel SACD for the first time in the U.S.!
The surround sound program on the Doors SACDs comes from the original 96K, 24-bit files mixed and mastered by Bruce Botnick for the DVD Audio Doors/Perception release. Those mixes were made from the original 8-track, 15 i.p.s. analog master tapes, with the exception of The Doors, which was recorded on 4-track. For the SACDs, the mixes were then up-sampled without filters to DSD using the Weiss Saracon format converter and authored by Gus Skinas at the Super Audio Center.
Fong-Torres helped compile one of the most definitive written histories of the band - ''The Doors by The Doors.'' In that book, Chester Bennington (Linkin Park) calls The Doors, ''the most underrated musical powerhouse in rock history. And unlike some that fade away into the abyss, The Doors will always relate to the youth of any era.''
