The Doors - Blue Sunday

Sunday, time for a classic.

"Blue Sunday" is a tune by the American rock band THE DOORS. The song is from the fifth studio album "Morrison Hotel", released on February 9, 1970 by Elektra Records. After the use of brass and string arrangements recommended by producer Paul A. Rothchild on their previous album, "The Soft Parade", THE DOORS returned to their blues-rock style and this album was largely seen as a return to form for the band. The band entered Elektra Sound Recorders in Los Angeles in November 1969 to record the album which is divided into two separately titled sides: "Hard Rock Cafe" and "Morrison Hotel". Session bassists Lonnie Mack and Ray Neapolitan featured on the album's songs.

Today's tune "Blue Sunday" is written by THE DOORS in 1965, when they were first starting out. For this album, they wanted to get back to their early sound, and felt recording this would be a good way to do it. The clips is filmed Live at Aquarius Theater "Private Rehearsal" 1969.
