The first Doors single was 'Break On Through/End Of The Night' in January of 1967 just after the album was released and the band signed off in August 1972 with 'Get Up And Dance/Tree Trunk' shortly before the final break up.
Ignoring what is your fave Doors track and such what was your fave Doors single and Why?
Is there one that has a special significance or one that made you realise these guys were more than your average rock outfit?
Not counting reissues The Doors released 18 singles during thier all too short career.....which is the most worthwhile....YOU choose!
This is the generally accepted singles discography of The Doors 1967-1972 although there were other releases by various countries which are not listed here....
