“The Unknown Soldier” #39 5/4/1968

A definite anti-war song from the Doors. It became one of their more theatrical performances in concert. Guitarist Robby Krieger pointed his guitar like a machine gun at Jim Morrison, John Densmore would play a drum roll followed by a rim shot, and Morrison fell to the floor. This track required over 130 takes in the studio before producer Paul Rothchild was satisfied.
