The Doors - Strange Days Live Performance at London Fog
In April 1966, The Doors performed a captivating live recording at the London Fog in West Hollywood, just as they were gaining momentum in the rock scene. This performance came on the heels of their self-titled debut album, which featured the iconic track "Break on Through (To the Other Side)." What’s fascinating is that at this point, the band was rapidly cementing their reputation for dynamic live shows and charismatic frontman Jim Morrison. The song "Strange Days" reflects their evolving sound and lyrical depth, which would soon be encapsulated in their second album of the same name, released later that year. This period was crucial, as they transitioned from an emerging band to one of the most influential acts of the 1960s. The intimate venue of the London Fog highlighted Morrison's enigmatic stage presence and the band's tight musical interplay, making it a pivotal moment in their early career.
