L.A Woman I danced like a maniac at the 60th at the Whiskey.
when you inject The Sound of Music and The Beatles into LMF solo.
All, duh.😁 But if going long and loud, LA Woman.💪
Riders on the storm is going to be played on my funeral .
Break on through to the other side we dug out beggers here we dug up treasures there try to run try to hide break on through to the other side
I dug the Doors since the first album. But the one that really blew me away was Morrison Hotel and Road House Blues. The production was awesome
When the music’s over live, always different solos
When the musics over will be my funeral song
If I say My Wild Love will you hit me ? 😳
SPANISH CARAVAN !!! That is THE Robby Krieger song of songs. Followed closely by LIGHT MY FIRE of course. It's just there is some guitar parts in Spaniah Caravan that create an indescribable feeling, like some primal communication transmitted directly to my DNA.
Never had the pleasure to see you live, but The End always brings me back to sitting in a dorm room with friends. Also, watched a video yesterday of you playing Maggie M'Gill, still in shock seeing you play a Tele. Now here's a pic of another one. I've never seen anything but an SG.
I have never seen you play live but I’d love to see you rock Roadhouse Blues or LA Woman 👩🏻 or Peace ✌️ Frog 🐸 or Light my Fire or Riders on the Storm ⛈️
There is so much good Doors music, it is hard to pick one. But if I had to, I would go with Riders On The Storm. There was that song and the passing of Jim Morrison, the first got really interested in The Doors music.
LA Woman, Roadhouse, The End, Love Her Madly, the list goes on and on. There was so much Guitar mastery on Doors albums and live shows. You Sir are a gem. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
The only time that I saw you was in 1972, in Fresno, California, for an event to help register 18yo's to vote. It was at Radcliffe Stadium, after Jim had left. I've always loved, "Break on Through to the Other Side". I always loved your flamenco style of guitar work. And just the way you fill in, with your licks.
Man… I love it all… the carnival Leslie organ fender Rhodes bass … the jazz Bosa nova beats slide guitar, traditional open string picking, finger picking … Jim’s casting spells…. Greatest band ever! The depth of the lyrics !!!! 🔥🔥🔥❤️Break on Through a song that defines the band & their statement and will never be dated!
La woman... That's my nickname
Robby reaching for a strat??
Wishful Sinful is a fun one. I used to cover it in New Brunswick, NJ in the '90s with a female vocalist
Watched you as The Doors in the 21st Century and your long extended versions of Light My Fire and Riders On The Storm were just sublime 🌞
I am a big fan of Universal Mind, I would love to hear the story behind that song. Why wa only played live?
The Crystal ship, wintertime love, shaman blues, I mean, bunch stuff to mention... thanks a lot btw...
I saw a video of you taking a picture with a fan at the Rush concert a few days ago. I’ve never got into that band. They must be good if you like them. I’ll have to give them a listen. Yesterday reached the top of being a Doors listener on YouTube music and then I heard a Doors song I never heard called I’m A Doctor! At the end Jim was asking Ray what was the Polish sausage! 😂
The End and Break on through, as those were the last two songs my late sister heard in her lifetime.
Bottleneck solos on Wild Child!
It’s always a great time at The Whisky A Go-Go. Can’t wait to be there again on June 27th!

You should let me sing that song once again with Robbie!! I sang roadhouse with him at Lucys 57 with Phil Chen on base
Robbie is my father‘s cousin. My dad‘s name was Irwin Shapiro. he always told me he had a twin and the parents wanted him to do what Robbie‘s brother did and go into law. Little did they know Robbie would make it a lot further than his twin brother!
I saw Robby live like 7 years ago and he melted my face! I still have a towel that he wiped his brow with and he threw it to me!
Does the day destroy the night and the night divide the day...? Asking for a physicist friends.
Break on Through Day divides the night Night divides the day
Shit , I still can’t play that guitar run properly, he can do it so exact, oh , that’s because he came up with it , in the first place.
Albiet Jim isn't physically present but to see you guys play would be a teenage dream I never could fulfill
So happy for you Robbie, your slide guitar got me into blues
Jim Morrison still alive

I was fortunate enough to see the Doors once in my hometown of Louisville Kentucky

Hojala pudiera estar en ese lugar un sueño inlcanzable vamos robby aguante!! Llevando la bandera de los Doors

I was lucky enough to listen to you live in Chihuahua! Treasured memory. I might catch you in L A too!!!
From the moment I heard Break On Through I was hooked on The Doors. Every album is a beautiful collection of art that stays in my soul!

Ain't life great Robby? It's been 60 years since I listened to you playing riffs on your guitar in Carpinteria, and we are both still alive and thriving. I talked to Happy yesterday, and she is doing well in Taos at 86.
All my blessings Robby! Wish I knew you. Keep up the good work.

We wanna hear , the cars is hiss by my window
Congratulations, Robbie! I truly think the doors is the best rock band that ever came out of America. You guys created something mystical , something sacred in those words and notes , something that sent me to endless possibilities and soul connection. Many blessings to you, Robby and to John densmore. Will he be there at the whisky with you to play?
Please, come to Portugal. "Take me to Portugal, Take me to Spain! Spanish Caravan, yes I know you can, Robbie"
Awesome. It was the LA Woman album which gave us “Riders on The Storm,” and so many other diverse songs that made that last album truly the penultimate moment for The Doors.
Good for you! Carry an extra set of guitar 🎸 strings? 🔥🦎🎤🥁🎺🎷
I actually met Robby...,...cool....low key guy
Robby had a flashback lol....
Will Jim’s alter ego the lizard king be there🤔
Van Morrison? Is that supposed to say Jim Morrison?
Yesterday’s gone with tomorrow let’s unite for the every ounce in a while!! ;P no pun intended this time do it Robby Do it!!!
I hope "Frank Wagner" shows up...
Van Morrison?
Los pude ver en el luna park año 2006
Robbie, Best news I’ve heard in years! Gonna bring my pops’ OG albums!
Love for you to play Slabsides, at the John Bourrough's Nature Sanctuary, but the Egg in Albany again will do. I have a story about buying my copy of LAWoman
Roberto!!
Two headed Robbie I like it.
I'm confused is he doing Van or Jim's music
Think you should write a song titled. LA Woman: GTFO Montana. 😠
Robert Alan Krieger, born January 8, 1946, in Los Angeles, is a musical performer and The Doors guitarist. He attended UCLA. “The first music I heard that I liked was Peter and the Wolf. I accidentally sat and broke the record (I was about seven). Then I listened to rock ‘n’ roll – I listened to the radio a lot – Fats Domino, Elvis, The Platters.
“I started surfing at fourteen. There was lots of classical music in my house. My father liked march music. There was a piano at home. I studied trumpet at ten, but nothing came of it. Then I started playing blues on the piano?no lessons though. When I was seventeen, I started playing guitar. I used my friend’s guitar. I didn’t get my own until I was eighteen. It was a Mexican flamenco guitar. I took flamenco lessons for a few months. I switched around from folk to flamenco to blues to rock ‘n’ roll.
“Records got me into the blues. Some of the newer rock ‘n’ roll, such as the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. If it hadn’t been for Butterfield going electric, I probably wouldn’t have gone rock ‘n’ roll.
I didn’t plan on rock ‘n’ roll. I wanted to learn jazz; I got to know some people doing rock ‘n’ roll with jazz, and I thought I could make money playing music. In rock ‘n’ roll you can realize anything that you can in jazz or anything. There’s no limitation other than the beat. You have more freedom than you do in anything except jazz – which is dying – as far as making any money is concerned.
“In The Doors we have both musicians and poets, and both know of each other’s art, so we can effect a synthesis. In the case of Tim Buckley or Dylan you have one man’s ideas. Most groups today aren’t groups. In a true group all the members create the arrangements among themselves.”
Most people know Robby Krieger as the consummate music artist in his role as former guitar player and songwriter of the legendary band The Doors.
What shouldn’t be surprising is that creativity has no boundaries and many times artistic expression will spill over into more then one medium for the artist.
Robby Krieger is no exception as demonstrated in his creation of a collection of spectacular, never-before-seen works of art…now available to art lovers and Robby fans.
Now, through the charity services organization, ART FOR A CAUSE, limited edition, giclee prints of his beautiful paintings will, for the first time, be available to the fans of Robby Krieger.
“I hope my paintings brings joy and love to art lovers for many years to come.” – Robby Krieger
