'The Soft Parade'

Let's welcome the horns and strings and that's just what The Doors did on "The Soft Parade" which was released in July 1969. Unfortunately the album was not as successful as the first three albums because the sound was way different than what The Doors had established.

The Doors spent two years of performing in clubs establishing that fine grain of what would be their repertoire for years to come. Jim Morrison, Robbie Krieger, Ray Manzarek and John Densmore eventually 'broke on through' with their first album in 1967.
