Manzarek, Densmore and Krieger continued to perform for about a year after Morrison's death, finally breaking up in 1972. In 2002, Kreiger and Manzarek reunited to form The Doors of the 21st Century. Densmore, who says he wasn't invited to join the new group, went to court and eventually got a ruling preventing the group from using The Doors in its name. The group now performs as Riders On The Storm, the title of one the band's best known songs.
