Ray Manzarek Dead: 'Doors' Co-Founder Was 74
“While [Jim] Morrison, with his proto-celebrity lifestyle and tragic
end, forever will remain the face of The Doors, you could argue
Manzarek's keyboard work was every bit as important and helped balance
some of the singer's more over-the-top moments.
His creepy
organ line on "Light My Fire" adds a weirdo menace to what outwardly is a
rock 'n' roll pick-up song. And his after-hours, lounge style on
"Riders On the Storm" transforms that song into an epic unlike anything
else the band ever did.”
