John Densmore & Robby Kreiger The Doors Riders On The Storm For Ray Manzarek

Описание: "A Celebration for Ray Manzarek" The Doors Riders On The Storm features founding members drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger. Keyboardist Rami Jaffee of Wallflowers/Foo Fighters plays Ray Manzarek's iconic electric piano solo. John Doe of X sings Jim Morrison's lead vocals, Stone Temple Pilots' Robert DeLeo on bass guitar and Stephen Perkins of Jane's Addiction on percussion in live performance of Riders On The Storm from The Doors 1971 album L.A. Woman. The February 12, 2016 concert at the Fonda Theater, Hollywood, CA would have been Ray Manzarek’s 76th birthday. The Doors’ Robby Krieger and John Densmore shared the stage together for the first time in over 15 years. The two have wanted a Ray Manzarek tribute for years.

One of the most acclaimed keyboardists of the rock era, Manzarek also earned acclaim beginning in the early 1980s for his production of the first four albums by the Los Angeles-based band X. So it was fitting that several members of X were on hand to celebrate their work together. Singer Exene Cervenka and bassist-singer John Doe recreated their reworked take on the Doors’ “Soul Kitchen” (a highlight on the band’s 1980 debut album “Los Angeles”) and then introduced the X original “Nausea” by explaining that Manzarek had played keyboards on that song. Guitarist Brian Ray (a long-time member of Paul McCartney’s band) played some powerful lead guitar on the tune, which featured the distinctive off-kilter duel vocals from Doe and Cervenka.
