The Doors had one of the most extraordinary debut years in music history in 1967, releasing a string of hit singles and two platinum albums, beginning in January with the band's self-titled debut, followed by Strange Days in September. The latter peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard album chart and featured classics like "People Are Strange, "Love Me Two Times," "Strange Days" and "When the Music's Over." Strange Days mixed new songs written on the road with some written before the band's debut. In fact, the band performed "Strange Days" during its 1966 residency at the London Fog in L.A., while "My Eyes Have Seen You" dates back to 1965. Another early track is "Moonlight Drive," which was one of the very first songs that the band practiced together, and where they heard Robby Krieger's haunting bottleneck guitar playing for the first time. It's also the song Morrison sang to Manzarek at Venice Beach in 1965 when the two former UCLA film students reconnected and decided to start the Doors. Strange Days has never sounded better, thanks to the use of the original masters cut under the supervision of original Doors producer Bruce Botnick and Elektra founder Jac Holtzman.
