About this listen
John Densmore joins Kyle Meredith With… to celebrate 60 years of The Doors, discussing the band’s new archival live releases, their signature improvisational style, and the post-myth era where the music now speaks louder than the legend. He reflects on Jim Morrison’s poetic genius, the creative interplay between band members—especially between his drumming and Ray Manzarek’s left-hand bass—and why the group thrived as a trio. Densmore also shares memories behind deeper cuts like “Palace in the Canyon” and the evolution of epics like “The End,” which, in hindsight, served as a poetic farewell. He touches on the band’s Kennedy Center snub, his upcoming jazz and hip-hop projects, and his recent onstage reunion with guitarist Robby Krieger at the Whisky a Go Go.
