The Doors announce 50th anniversary edition of their debut album

The Doors are to release a 50th anniversary deluxe edition of their debut album on March 31.

Packaged in a 12 x 12 hardcover book, the album includes a remastered version of the album’s original stereo mix, available on CD for the first time in a decade and remastered for the first time in nearly 30 years.

The album’s original mono mix was also remastered for this set and is making its CD debut here.

An LP-version of the mono mix is also included. The third disc features live performance from The Matrix in San Francisco recorded just weeks after The Doors was released.

The Matrix recordings heard on this deluxe edition were sourced from the recently discovered, original tapes.
