CD Reviews

Lesser volume of the Doors Box Set

"In the US, the Doors Box Set was released as a 4 CD set in one of those standard 4 x 8 inch boxes. Each CD comes in it's own jewel case with a small booklet. In addition, there is a nice 50 page booklet with details about each of the songs and a history of the band. The European version of the box set was broken up into two volumes and released in the standard double CD jewel cases. I don't know how complete the booklets are.This Volume II is the second two CD's of the Box Set. The third CD is a fairly good collection of live and studio material, but it isn't as good as the material on Volume I. The sound quality on some of the tracks is amazingly bad. There is the only live version of Soft Parade, which is fairly good. There is also the studio version of Orange County Suite, that never made it to an album. Listen to it and you will understand why. The fourth CD is a collection of previously released material, chosen by the three living band members. It is of absolutely no value to any Doors fan, because a Doors fan would already have this material on the original albums.If you think it is necessary to get the third CD, than you should get the US release of the complete Box Set."
Weak link in the Doors' catalog.

"No it isn't horrible, but it's the worse half of this set.
The first disc of this set (third disc overall) isn't
as strong as the first disc of the other set because
they compiled some of the Doors' not-so-good songs
on it. You wouldn' believe the terrible sound quality
on some of the songs. Many have garbled lyrics or there
is too much white noise caused by the tape recorder they
used. So if you wanted this set well, don't waste any[money]! Just get
the first half. I say this partially because the 3rd disc was
bad and partially because the 2nd disc (4th overall) is of
no use to Doors fans buying this set because it is simply
another greatest hits collection, only this time it was
assembled by the band instead of Elektra. Overall not hideous, but not worth the money."
