The Doors – L.A. Woman [40th Anniversary Edition] Playlists + Exclusive track

As part of an ongoing celebration to mark the 40th anniversary of The Door’s final album ‘L.A. Woman’, Rhino have released a special edition of the album, which includes the previously undiscovered track ‘She Smells So Nice’.

The Doors – L.A. Woman [40th Anniversary] by Doors Anniversary

In addition to this new material, the album contains an exclusive track only on Spotify: ‘The Wasp (Texas Radio and the Big Beat) [Instrumental]’.

Bruce Botnick reveals: “Way back in 1971 when we were recording the L.A. Woman album, we came to a point in the road where we needed another song. Ray and Jim, in looking through Jim’s poetry book, came upon Texas Radio and the Big Beat.”

“Texas Radio had been performed live for years but as poetry and not with a melody. Ray and Jim, John and Robby huddled and Jim started humming and singing the poetry, where upon Ray, John and Robby constructed an arrangement for Jim to read his poetry and sing the choruses.”

“We welcome this opportunity to bring you the backing track so that you can experience the creative magic as it happened in the studio.

I sorry to bomb this blog like this but I wanted to post this comment in a thread in the official help forum that you link to, but then it asked me to make an account with their services or link my twitter/facebook account and pull my information from there to their own services, for me to post that comment; that is completely unnecessary. And why cant I use my spotify information like I do right here and now? Anyway, you guys are forcing my to have that friends bar on the right side of the screen. This is a real problem. I really don't want that bar there but I can't hide it anymore. It takes up space on my screen and it is really annoying seeing it there with no content. I want it gone. Is there a file I can edit to force it away? This forced social aspect of Spotify is really rude. I actually have to put the right side of Spotify off the screen to make Spotify SOMEWHAT satisfying to use, but it's sad that I miss the more natural way to enable Private Session up in the right corner rather than clicking File > private session in the left corner whenever I don't want music to show up on my Last.fm account, like when I'm searching for new artists. Anyway, like I said before I feel like you're forcing that social Spotify factor on me and I find it very rude. And I understand it's rude to rant about this in this blog post about the awesome doors, but then again I tried the forum but you've made it unnecessarily complicated, and I couldnt find a email address to send the complaint to.
