Editorial Review:
Album Description: Rhino’s celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the Doors spectacular 1967 debut continues to break on through with an unprecedented two-disc, career-spanning collection that spotlights the legendary band’s powerful mix of music and mysticism. The most comprehensive 2-CD Doors set ever compiled, the anthology presents dramatic new 40 Anniversary mixes by the remaining Doors and Bruce Botnick, the band’s original engineer and producer. Drawing essential hits and favorites from all six studio album recorded by Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore, the title also features several songs previously unavailable on any U.S. compilation as well as choice rarities from various sources.

The Very Best of the Doors takes you back into time, time when my Brother had a Super sport car, and lot's of dates. When I was Six years old and i would hang out with him while he worked on his car and we would listen to the Doors' When the Song Gloria would play we sing it out loud, and move to the beat. The Very Best of the Doors is by far the best, I now let my son (17)listen to it. The melody intertwine with two generations together. I with the old school records, and his i-pod tactics, but its still all the same music; rockin' 'n rolling till we die!!!

If you are a fan of the Doors, this is a worthwhile CD to get. I've been a fan of the Doors for MANY years and really enjoy this on my ipod.

I had an older Doors greatest hits cd, the one cd version that sells in bargain bins for $9, and quite frankly it was too raw for my liking, lots of treble, not much midrange or bass. I'm deaf in one ear from birth, so my opinion is obviously going to be slightly different than most people. By the way, I never understood the stereo concept though, "oo guitar is to my left, hold a sec now he jumped over to my right!"
Kidding aside, I like this mix a bit better and it seems like a solid choice of songs. I do agree with one of the reviewers (my apologies I can't seem to scroll back to find your name and give you credit where it's due, you know who you are), it sounds as if they laid the drums a bit heavy on a few songs. But overall, ... Read More:

If, like me, you've been a Doors fan since high school, but never an "uberfan", you've probably had more than one of the studio albums and probably one of the anthologies/best ofs, etc. By first wife sto-, er, "permanently borrowed" and/or sold my copy of "LA Woman" (ironic, hunh?) and one of the anthologies.
Now the discs that were "ex-wife'd", were discs made BEFORE the Industry decided there was a huge vein of gold to be mined by "remasters". So I've been able to replace long-lost discs without spending unnecessarily on albums I already have. (Even ex's have their uses, I suppose.)
If you are a newb to the Doors, this collection is not only a great deal (39 tracks for $15), it sounds great. It has all of the "great" ... Read More:

I didn't give it five stars because in my humble opinion I can't think of any valid excuse for not including "Hyacinth House" (which could replace the awful "Moonlight Drive") and the wild, wacky, but melodious "The Soft Parade" (which could replace the even more awful "When the Music's Over" - Actually, Jim, you *can* 'petition the Lord with prayer!' RIP.)
Also, I wouldn't have minded "My Eyes Have Seen You" getting the ol' heave-ho in favor of adding "Blue Sunday," "Indian Summer," and "Yes, the River Knows;" but I guess if I keep going almost all six full albums would be in the compilation so I'll stop here.
Even so, it's a nice big Doors collection for a great price.
