HMV Review

Many of the songs on Strange Days had been written around the same time as the ones that appeared on The Doors, and with hindsight one has the sense that the best of the batch had already been cherry picked for the debut album. For that reason, the band's second effort isn't as consistently stunning as their debut, though overall it's a very successful continuation of the themes of their classic album. Besides the hit Strange Days, highlights included the funky Moonlight Drive, the eerie You're Lost Little Girl, and the jerkily rhythmic Love Me Two Times, which gave the band a small chart single. My Eyes Have Seen You and I Can't See Your Face in My Mind are minor but pleasing entries in the group's repertoire that share a subdued Eastern psychedelic air. The 11-minute When the Music's Over would often be featured as a live showstopper, yet it also illustrated their tendency to occasionally slip into drawn-out bombast. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide

    人間国宝級アーティスト、灰野敬二の音楽人生を狂わせた?らしいI。自分としても昔ドアーズでいちばんのお気に入りだった。前作の血がしたたるようなモリスンの野獣の感覚にして詩人といった流れもいいが、よりアーティスティックな仕上がりとなっている。

    邦題、まぼろしの世界だったかな?。デッドともエアプレーンともクイックともちがう、独自のサイケサウンド。やはり特徴はインプロビゼイションですかね。ロビーのギターはこれでも。おどろ、おどろしてる(なんちゅう表現だ(^O^))まさにトリップ。麻薬音楽だー

    前作はメッセージの重みとむき出しの野生とが合わさった荒削りながらまさに「アメリカの詩」だったが、こちらは音楽性からいえばより完成度の高いポップアルバム。どちらが上というよりもこの二枚はファン必携だろう、いうまでもなく。
