Aladdin Sane (1973) All the Madmen (1970)

Fame (1975) ‘Heroes’ (1977) Jump They Say (1993)

Life on Mars (1971)

Space Oddity (1969)

Starman (1972)

Stay (1976)

+ (one I aim to cover someday) the powerful “techno spiritual” Dead Man Walking (1997):

“Let me dance away [Till I swivel back round then I fly fly fly] Now I'm wiser than dreams 

[Losing breath from the water when I'm gone gone gone] Let me fly fly fly [Spinning slack through reality] While I'm touching tomorrow [Deadens my brain falling up through the years] And I know Who's there [Till I swivel back round then I fly fly fly] [Losing breath from the water when I'm gone gone gone] When silhouettes fall [Spinning slack through reality]

And I'm gone, Like I'm dancing on angels And I'm gone through a crack in the past

Like a dead man walking…”

postpunk_80 Happy Birthday lan Robert Astbury (born 14 May

1962) is an English singer, best known as the lead vocalist, frontman and a founding member of the rock band the Cult. During various hiatuses from the Cult, Astbury fronted the short-lived band Holy Barbarians in 1996, and later from 2002 to 2007 served as the lead singer of Riders on the Storm, a Doors tribute band that also featured original Doors members Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger. Astbury replaced Rob Tyner during an MC5 reunion in 2003, and has contributed guest vocals on several recordings by other artists.lan Astbury was born in Heswall, Cheshire, [4] and is of Scottish and English descent. He moved with his family to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, from England in 1973 when he was

11. He attended Glendale Secondary School. [6] Astbury's early musical influences took root in Hamilton, where he became a fan of David Bowie, Iggy Pop and New York Dolls. He did not start performing until after his return to England.

In 1979, while living in Glasgow, Astbury was influenced by the Doors' song "The End", which he heard while watching the film Apocalypse Now, later describing this as "a religious experience"

Happy Birthday to the legendary American guitarist and Doors' founding member, Robby Krieger! Let's take a trip down memory lane to celebrate the man who brought us the mesmerizing guitar riffs of 'Riders on the Storm' and contributed to The Doors' iconic sound.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Krieger's musical journey began at an early age, inspired by the vibrant music scene of the '50s and '60s. His love for flamenco and jazz guitar set him apart from the crowd, and little did he know, he was destined to be a key player in one of rock's most influential bands.

In 1965, Krieger joined forces with Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, and John Densmore to form The Doors. The name was inspired by Aldous Huxley's book, 'The Doors of Perception,' reflecting the band's desire to explore new musical horizons and challenge societal norms.

Fast forward to 1971, and The Doors unleashed 'Riders on the Storm.' This haunting masterpiece, featuring Krieger's ethereal guitar work, took listeners on a journey through a musical storm. The song's moody atmosphere and Morrison's evocative lyrics create an otherworldly experience, making it a timeless classic.

The track was part of The Doors' final studio album, 'L.A. Woman,' which went on to become a massive success. The album's bluesy undertones and experimental elements solidified The Doors' status as musical innovators, and it remains a testament to their enduring legacy.

L.A. Woman' marked The Doors as the first American band to achieve eight consecutive gold LPs, showcasing their unparalleled influence on the rock scene. Krieger's guitar prowess and the band's collective brilliance left an indelible mark on music history.

Digging into 'Riders on the Storm,' the song's meaning has been subject to interpretation. Some say it's a metaphorical journey, while others see it as a reflection of life's uncertainties. Either way, Krieger's haunting guitar licks add an enigmatic layer to the storytelling.

Join me in raising a virtual toast to Robby Krieger, the man behind the magic! Let the 'Riders on the Storm' guide you through the musical wonders of The Doors.
