  • Can you imagine a duelling pianos music video on the deck of a Solar Boat? Hey sRandyKopec...it's not going to cost you any KOPECs if you get these two Slavs together...Get Ray to Call me Sergei 306 934-1958

  • Ahoy Ray...I've got a Royal Canadian Navy music movie and a Solar Powered Boat manufacturer ready to start promoting this song. Call me 306 934-1958, Sergei Romanoff

  • and myself said to me.. why are you waiting..??

  • Ray Manzarek is the man. Perhaps my favorite album (the closest competition is Mothership Connection and After Bathing at Baxters). I once saw the solar boat on electric sheep.

  • Manzarek je výborný muzikant.Brzy se vrací do Prahy. Mám rád jeho vinyl Golden Scarab,kterej spousta lidí nesnáší.

  • Hit me up!!! Just send a friend request, and your dreams will manifest, time to find yourself, Supreme Realization at it's best, don't let the mass mind mislead, the collective unconscious deep in secret recesses with an Angel to plead, Visions redundant record a sound to bring you to the place of revelations round, deep in the heart of dismal disgrace with the Alchemical Flame I will continue to erase the records that held me back so long, one look into stranger's eyes and I know where I belong

  • Woo hoo. I like this!!! ♫ ♪

  • great references to Jim Morrison, great song

  • "Y un amigo me dijo: que estas esperando? Siempre estuve a tu lado. Puedes verme? No? Bueno, ven conmigo, es tiempo de que aprendas a ver" Cielos, esa introduccion hablada de Ray es sensacional, me gusta mas la voz de Ray cuando habla. Sus canciones como solista son tan lindas y positivas, profundas y alegres.

  • You can get this cd @ Amazon.com. Man they have everything there. This is a very good lp!

  • You can get this cd @ Amazon . They gots everything!

  • Say Ray Manzarek in 1974 or 1975. I'm pretty sure they opened for Joe Walsh. I saw a lot of concerts in the 70's. Some of it is a bit hazy. For more than one reason.

  • fucking great album

    can't believe it's not talked about more than that

  • Tour Ray Tour!!!!

  • awesome song.........ray's tribute to his best friend jim morrison(your finally free!!!!!!)ray shows a lot of INSIGHT in this song....love you ray...........

  • i love ray~! my favorite door!

  • this is a great song

  • Ray is a legend and I love him, but he obviously self destroyed his brain and spend lot of time trying to imitate Jimbo's lyrics style. You can check this listening to "Rick and the Ravens", "Other voices" (1971) and "Full circle" (1973)...

  • @Aguz25 I don't really think he destroyed his brain he experimented with Acid but he was one of the first to put it down.

  • @Aguz25 What an absurd thing to say. Ray is a buddhist & an intellectual to boot. Lay off the legend...

  • Comment removed

  • Ray shows the way!!! I love his songs, thay are cool and relaxing :-)

  • dude i love the doors but i dont know about this.ray what would morrison say if he heared u doing this in a holiday inn lounge?come on u know what mr.mojo risin would say.hed probly piss on ur vox continental

  • @jerichapa Obviously youve never heard the rest of the album, much less be able to appreciate Ray's musical talents or music in general.

  • Steady but innovateable music. I've always liked Ray's ways.

  • i m from Africa and a ceazy lover of the doors i try to stop hearing that part of organ in riders on the storm but can t man i hear it more amore all day it´s only magic thx RAY

  • beautiful song! excelent!!

  • the whole thing started with rock and roll! ray was starting to stretch his cosmic roots. his cover of downbound train is pure rock. rock on ray i'm listening

  • Love the beginning and the atmosphere that is created, the moog is brilliant and the guitar solo!

  • featuring jazz great Tony Williams on drums and Larry Carlton on guitar. I wore out this record in the mid 70's. This was out way before Night City. The whole Golden Scarab lp is brilliant. The followup lp was dissapointing.

  • Best song of any post Doors solo material out of any of them

  • PURE POETRY!!! THANKS RM!!!!!

  • You should hear Bicentenial Blues on this album absolutley bitchen keyboard solo.

  • a execelent song , i love the part he said about the moon light drive and tightrope ride.

    if someome have the lyrics please pass it

    because i don't understand all the parts (i am from brazil). thanks

  • meda nostalgia ver a ray manzareck :(

  • Man!!! This is such a great song!!!!

    I dig it too much.

    Thanks for the video.

    Eloy

  • I forgot about NiteCity, but still have the album inthe closet - and bought the album to CD changer for Christmas - gonna go nuts! LOL Remember there was a guy on the back cover of NiteCity, in the band, looked a little like Jim and people started speculating that Jim just faded into the back of the band to get away and write poetry. Really! Pretty sure that was the album. Nuts. Not a chance. LOL

  • when I'm a grown-up I wanna be like Ray

  • where can i get this abulm(cd)

  • Ray Manzarek - Golden scarab (album name) - Rapidshare...google it

  • It's a GREAT song, such a trip...

  • Ray must have been tripping on acid when he wrote this song.

  • Yes, it would seem I transposed the lineup from the whole thing and Golden Scarab.

    Yes Robbie and John would have fit perfectly, but it was too soon after they parted ways from the Doors and relations were still a bit icy at that time. It was nic eto see them reunite briefly for the American Prayer effort.

  • Great Post! It would have been great with more Golden Scarab Videos! :-D

  • he is really into the self consisious stuff you can really here it in this song

  • Ray did some great stuff fusing his jazz pedigree to rock and he had some stellar players on this album. The drummer was Gary Mallabar, Steve Miller's drummer. Joe Walsh and Flo and Eddie from the Turtles were on this album as well and even the actor George Segal who was an excellent banjo player.

  • For the line-up you mention, you're thinking of "The Whole Thing Started With Rock And Roll..." "Golden Scarab" has Larry Carlton a great jazz guitarist, Tony Williams on drums, and Jerry Scheff on bass. However I easily imagine John and Robby playing these parts.

  • I got this album when I was in high school, it seemed so much cooler then.

  • Still images are stupid.

  • if you want images, try google...

  • I wish ray would find the time and make a long over due video for this song,like he did for the

    ghost song.

  • peace

  • check out chazz for a new frontman for the storm/his fans say so

  • Anybody going to post any NightCity tracks ????

  • you mean NiteCity ? ;-) maybe...

  • Your right NiteCity....it has been awhile...

  • Why do i get the impression Ray recorded this record dressed in the make up on the cover of the lp.Ray is the coolest Door........

  • merci,je le cherchais depusi longtemps!

  • really groovy

  • Thank you so much for making this video!

  • I saw the Manzarek and band perform whole album live at the Jazz Medium in Chicago in 1974. Fantastic! Intimate setting, awesome performances, sound system and lighting effects. I was only 16, and underage, but my friend and I were admitted to the club accompanied by friend's older brother. Drinking age in Chicago was only 18 at the time, though!

  • OMG, you're bringing me way back. I remember listening to this in the radio on the car, and liking it but not understanding it at all, even tho I knew all the words. Big, deep poetry for a girl of 18.

  • @erscott13

    Coool!!!!!!!

  • Cool song, real groovy and positive vibes

  • wow thanks man! I used to hear this song on manczarek's web site, now i can hear it here...it's a great song thanks!

  • hey- you spelled his name RIGHT!

  • I love Ray's moog sounds on this one

  • that just just made an already excellent day even better.

  • thank you it's hard to find
