NEW YORK -- Marking the 41st anniversary of the release of the Doors' classic self-titled album are several band-related projects already in shops and on the horizon. Tops on the list is an untitled documentary that will chronicle the group's career.
"We have plans for a big Doors documentary film in the works," Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek said. "I saw the first cut of it yesterday, and it's looking real good. But that won't be out 'til another six months."
Although Manzarek is keeping a tight lip on specifics about the documentary, he did confirm that it would feature a large amount of rare footage. "Absolutely -- that's the whole point of it. Never before seen! This is the anti-Oliver Stone (referring to Stone's 1991 film, The Doors). This will be the true story of the Doors."
Already out is a Classic Albums DVD from Eagle Rock that focuses on the Doors' aforementioned 1967 debut. "Everybody's there -- Densmore, Manzarek, Krieger, Bill Siddons, Bruce Botnick."...
