Classic Rock Presents The Doors August 2008 (1426) Jim Morrison Jimi Hendrix Pink Floyd Hawkwind

This is a strong collector’s issue focused on The Doors, Jim Morrison and the wider psychedelic rock movement. The front cover features a striking black-and-white image of Jim Morrison, with cover mentions for Pink Floyd, Hendrix, Hawkwind, The Byrds, Moody Blues, Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, Small Faces and more.

Inside, the magazine covers the rise and legacy of psychedelic rock, with features shown in the images including:

• The Doors feature, exploring the band’s story and Jim Morrison’s role in psychedelic rock culture.
• Jim Morrison feature content connected to the accompanying Doors coverage.
• West Coast Freak-Out feature covering the San Francisco psych scene, including Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Quicksilver Messenger Service and other key names.
• Roky Erickson feature.
• Jimi Hendrix feature, looking at his psychedelic work and late-1960s influence.
• The Beatles’ White Album feature.
• Pink Floyd’s The Piper at the Gates of Dawn feature.
• Psyche Art feature.
• Small Faces feature.
• Hawkwind feature.
• 42 Most Essential Psychedelic Albums feature.

A very good issue for collectors of The Doors, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, 1960s rock, psychedelic rock, and Classic Rock Presents special editions. Basically a whole magazine dedicated to the era when everyone discovered feedback, paisley shirts, and suspiciously confident album artwork. Humanity survived somehow.
