April 24th, 1967 – The Doors release their hit single, “Light My Fire.”
At the time, the band needed another single, and Los Angeles DJ Dave Diamond had been telling the group that “Light My Fire” was a hit and needed to be released. The original cut was seven minutes long but needed to be three if it was a single, so Paul Rothchild headed into the studio and came out with an edit three days later. The track hit #1 in the charts by the third week of July 1967.

*******************
The Doors channel is the official YouTube home of classic Doors live performances, The Doors albums, and contemporary performances and content honoring The Doors featuring John Densmore and Robby Krieger.
With an intoxicating, genre-blending sound, provocative and uncompromising songs, and the mesmerizing power of singer Jim Morrison’s poetry and presence, The Doors had a transformative impact not only on popular music but on popular culture.
The Doors’ arrival on the rock scene in 1967 marked not only the start of a string of hit singles and albums that would become classics, but also of something much bigger – a new and deeper relationship between creators and audience. Refusing to be mere entertainers, the Los Angeles quartet relentlessly challenged, confronted and inspired their fans, leaping headfirst into the heart of darkness while other bands warbled about peace and love. Though they’ve had scores of imitators, there’s never been another band quite like them.
