“The Doors recorded their sixth and final album during the winter of 1970-71… [Jim made] one of The Doors' greatest albums – a swaggering, blues-influenced work that was mostly recorded live. That intimacy and driving sense of urgency powers cuts like ‘The Wasp (Texas Radio and the Big Beat)’ and the title track.” -ULTIMATE CLASSIC ROCK There’s no denying the influence of iconic Black musicians that shaped Jim’s prowess for the blues in The Doors’ music.

“Crawling Kingsnake” John Lee Hooker recorded his adaption of this Delta blues, descended from variations by Blind Lemon Jefferson and Victoria Spivey, in 1949. It was a Top 10 R&B hit. Dan: “I first heard Hooker’s version in high school. My uncle Tim would have given me that record. But our version is definitely Junior Kimbrough’s take on it. It’s almost a disco riff! And that’s Kenny playing the slide guitar, the same one he used on R.L. Burnside’s records.” Patrick: “We fell into this drum in

🐍 “Crawlin’ King Snake And I rule my den” 🐍 The Doors’ version of “Crawlin’ King Snake” traces back to Blues legend John Lee Hooker, who helped popularize the song with his 1949 recording. The band put their own edge on it, darker, heavier, and stretched into a hypnotic jam that became a standout of their early club sets and later appeared on L.A.WOMAN. Listen to the track here: https://found.ee/CrawlingKing Photos by Paul Ferrara. | The Doors

Here’s a little John Lee Hooker to get your week started off right! “Crawlin’ King Snake” is believed to have originated as a Delta blues in the 1920s... To make it our own, we heavily reworked the lyrics and melody, but with a spirit of respect for the soul of this song. #blues #johnleehooker #larkinpoe | Larkin Poe
