Step into the surreal soundscape of 1967 with The Doors’ Strange Days.

From the eerie allure of “People Are Strange” to the hypnotic pulse of “When the Music’s Over,” this record captures Jim Morrison and company pushing the boundaries of rock and consciousness alike. Join host Steve Epley as we dive into its haunting themes, experimental production, and timeless influence on psychedelic rock.
