Doors 40th Anniversary Release Date Set

I'll give you a moment to recover from the shock of realizing that it has been almost 40 years since the Doors released their first album in January 1967, so that you can appreciate the good news about the kickoff of their anniversary celebration.

Perception, a massive six-CD/six-DVD boxed set is scheduled for release on November 21. Surviving founding members Ray Manzerek, John Densmore and Robbie Krieger were involved in remastering the six albums recorded before Jim Morrison's death, and the selection of previously unreleased "bonus" tracks.

The DVDs will include video performances and a 5.1 Surround Sound mix of each album. The remastered albums are The Doors, Strange Days, Waiting For the Sun, The Soft Parade, Morrison Hotel and L.A. Woman.
