Rolling Stone proclaimed that Morrison Hotel opens “with a powerful blast of raw funk called ‘Roadhouse Blues’. It features jagged barrelhouse piano, fierce guitar, and one of the most convincing raunchy vocals Jim Morrison has ever recorded.”

In short, the harsh brilliance of “Roadhouse Blues” was its angry hard rock manner, brought to fore in brooding fashion with a chillingly true Morrison lyric: “I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer/The future’s uncertain and the end is always near.”

Making it one of The Doors’ best-ever tracks, “Roadhouse Blues” was joined as praise-worthy in Rolling Stones’ review by the buoyant catchiness of another Morrison Hotel single, “Land Ho.” “A chanty that sets you rocking and swaying on first listen and never fails to bring a smile every time it’s repeated.”

Analogue Productions and Quality Record Pressings are proud to announce that six studio LP titles — The Doors, Strange Days, Waiting For The Sun, Soft Parade, Morrison Hotel and L.A. Woman — are featured on 200-gram vinyl, pressed at 45 rpm. All six titles are also available on Hybrid Multichannel SACD! All were cut from the original analog masters by Doug Sax, with the exception of The Doors, which was made from the best tape copy.

The Doors returned to crunching, straightforward hard rock on Morrison Hotel, an album that, despite yielding no major hit singles, returned them to critical favor with hip listeners. An increasingly bluesy flavor began to color the songwriting and arrangements, especially on the party’n’booze anthem “Roadhouse Blues.” Airy mysticism was still present on “Waiting for the Sun,” “Queen of the Highway,” and “Indian Summer”; “Ship of Fools” and “Land Ho!” struck effective balances between the hard rock arrangements and the narrative reach of the lyrics. “Peace Frog” was the most political and controversial track, documenting the domestic unrest of late-’60s America before unexpectedly segueing into the restful ballad “Blue Sunday.” “The Spy,” by contrast, was a slow blues that pointed to the direction that would fully blossom on L.A. Woman. –AllMusic Review by Richie Unterberger
