AN AMERICAN PRAYER

An oddity of sorts. A collection of Morrison's poetry with background music done by the Doors. One thing evident here, is Jim's hypnotic voice. This is even more evident on the original 'Lost Paris Tapes' from where some of the material here was taken from. Musically, highlights of the record would be the live rendition of 'Roadhouse Blues' and the complete version of 'Ghost Song' (available on the remastered version). In general, this concept album might not be a suitable choice for just any casual Doors fan. But for anyone interested in the weird and psychedelic, it could be worth checking out.
