The Doors Jim Morrison on Red Iron-on Patch

The Doors' self-titled debut LP was recorded in August 1966 and released in the first week of January 1967.

It featured most of the major songs from their set, including the 11-minute musical drama, "The End".

The band recorded the album in a few days in late August and early September 1966, almost entirely live in the studio with many songs captured in a single take.

Morrison and Manzarek directed a promotional film for the lead single "Break on Through (To the Other Side)", a significant advance in the development of the music video genre.

To promote the single, the Doors made their television debut on a Los Angeles TV show called Shebang miming to Break On Through.

This clip has never been officially released by the Doors but can be seen on YouTube.
