Doors To Play L.A. Woman In Its Entirety

Original Doors members Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger have something special in mind for their Aug. 24 performance at Jones Beach in Wantagh, N.Y. The group, touring under the name Doors 21st Century with Cult vocalist Ian Astbury, will perform the Doors’ 1971 Elektra album “L.A. Woman” for the first time in its entirety. Original frontman Jim Morrison died shortly before the album’s release.

The New York concert will be filmed for a DVD due for release in early 2004. The band will also play “L.A. Woman” at a Dec. 9 concert at the Zenith in Paris to commemorate what would have been Morrison’s 60th birthday. Morrison, who was born Dec. 8, 1943, is buried in Paris. Manzarek has said that he and Kreiger will visit Morrison’s grave on Dec. 8.
