They did use bass guitar in (at least some) studio recordings. Still, I agree that you can't really hear it. Don't you think it was the spirit of the times though? I think they lacked the tech back then.
@2usu On some songs the bass was extremely important to keeping the Doors together in the same idea such as on LA Woman, the Soft Parade, and even on Light My Fire. The different session bassists they used pretty much set the foundation for what the Doors would build off of.
@2usu On When The Music's Over, when the song is broken down to its fundamental parts, soon the bass foundation becomes extremely important in order to build up the song again. Every sound in the music of the Doors has a place that is integral to the overall tone.
@zoso46n2 ill have to disagree with the comparison to bonham, always saw him more of a blues/ RnB inspired drummer where as densmore was more jazz, in that sense id compare him with mitch mitchell or even ringo starr
Densmore is one of the best drummers ever and he has done nothing since The Doors disbanded? I figured he'd be in a jazz band or give us something WAY better than this insane garbage.
Ford is ripping off Texas Radio and The Big Beat, left and right. Not that there's anything wrong with that. The Doors were prone to cop a lick or two. The opening riff to Break on Through is from Shake Your Moneymaker, by Paul Butterfield. And huge swathes of Spanish Caravan are taken directly from a classic flamenco song called Asturias (no credit given). We Could Be So Good Together is an exact copy of an old Robert Guitar Johnson song. The Beatles "borrowed" proflificaly, as well.
Densmore's the man. I heard a live recording once where he played just the cleanest, most crystalline drum roll I've ever heard. You couldn't even tell when his hands switched.

Densmore can't give us nothing better than this?

John Densmore is SUCH an under-rated drummer it's not even fair.
