THE DOORS will always be remembered as arguably the most iconic group of 1960's and 70's. To this day legions of fans have been inspired by the music that was the soundtrack for a generation. Their iconic frontman, Jim Morrison, their Blues-fused psychedelia, their poetry and lyrics continue to reverberate around the world four decades on.
RHINO RECORDS pays tribute to THE DOORS with the ultimate collectable. Say 'Hello I Love You' to THE DOORS VINYL BOX SET. Clad in faux lizard skin, Rhino's limited edition, seven-disc boxed set contains six 12' 180-gram HQ virgin vinyl reissues of the original stereo mixes of the legendary Jim Morrison-fronted studio albums. The vinyl box also includes a second version of their revolutionary 1967 debut LP pressed in mono. All albums come with their original sleeve and inner artwork.
The lacquers for this special project were cut at Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood, California under the direct supervision of original Doors producer/engineer Bruce Botnick and Elektra Records founder Jac Holzman. THE DOORS VINYL BOX was also produced in cooperation with surviving band members John Densmore, Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek. This is truly a once in a lifetime collectable for any true Doors fan!

The Doors (1967, presented in both stereo and mono vinyl 12' discs)
Strange Days (1967)
Waiting For The Sun (1968)
