I was always tempted to buy Other Voices on viny, because it was a regular in the cutout bins in the mid to late 70's at bargain prices
It's probably £30+ if it's had a reissue , or much more for a crackly original vinyl , but having never heard The Doors without Jim , I will give it a go on the internet for free .....


Worth hearing for Ships w/ Sails alone - one of my top 10 Doors tracks. It's magnificent.

As a confirmed contrarian, my favourite Doors album is Other Voices Grin  


I do genuinely like Other Voices, but that's nuts.


I'm afraid Jimbo really doesn't do it for me, although, again, controversially, I rather like An American Prayer.  I'm beyond redemption.


So you don't like Jim, but you like an album that's even more Jim than the regular Doors albums, and your favourite Doors album is an album where Ray Manzarek tries to sing like Jim? OK.   Roll Eyes

Now it's try before you buy - just a click of a mouse away after an advert or 3

First time seeing Martin Stephenson and the Daintees. Had only known him from the early albums and Best Of, so it was a bit of a surprise that he was so idiosyncratic- lots of non sequiturs and stream of consciousness. Could have played so many more songs than he did! Still, very much a one off and I thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Great guitarist too - Gary Dunn?

The man's incorrigible! He's working on an Archie Fisher boxset, too I believe.

Because of some ongoing issues with Upcoming & Recent Gigs, I have split this year's contributions off to reduce the size of the topics.

Let me know of any issues that you see.
