    The Doors
    were an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1965, with vocalist
    Jim Morrison
    , keyboardist
    Ray Manzarek
    , guitarist
    Robby Krieger
    , and drummer
    John Densmore
    . They were among the most controversial and influential rock acts of the 1960s, mostly because of Morrison's lyrics, voice, and his erratic stage persona. They have been also cited as "the kings of
    acid rock
    genre",
    and the group was widely regarded as an important part of the
    era's counterculture
    .
    The band took its name from the title of
    Aldous Huxley
    's book
    The Doors of Perception
    , itself a reference to a quote by
    William Blake
    . After signing with
    Elektra Records
    , the Doors with Morrison released six albums in five years, some of which are considered among the greatest of all time,
    including
    The Doors
    (1967),
    Strange Days
    (1967),
    and
    L.A. Woman
    (1971).
    They were one of the most successful bands during that time and by 1972 the Doors had sold over 4 million albums domestically and nearly 8 million singles.
    Morrison died in uncertain circumstances in 1971. The band continued as a trio until disbanding in 1973.
    They released three more albums in the 1970s, two of which featured earlier recordings by Morrison, and over the decades reunited on stage in various configurations. In 2002, Manzarek, Krieger and
    Ian Astbury
    of
    the Cult
    on vocals started performing as "The Doors of the 21st Century". Densmore and the Morrison estate successfully sued them over the use of the band's name. After a short time as Riders on the Storm, they settled on the name
    Manzarek–Krieger
    and toured until Manzarek's death in 2013.
    The Doors were the first American band to accumulate eight consecutive gold LPs.
    According to the
    RIAA
    , they have sold 33 million records in the US
    and over 100 million records worldwide,
    making them one of the
    best-selling bands of all time
    .
    The Doors have been listed as one of the greatest artists of all time by magazines including
    Rolling Stone
    , which ranked them 41st on its list of the "
    100 Greatest Artists of All Time
    ".
    In 1993, they were inducted into the
    Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
    .
    A percentage of all sales go to combat drug addiction.
    Thanks for looking at this listing and have a great day!
