Review - :
The most uneven studio album recorded with {$Jim Morrison} in the group, partially because their experiments with brass and strings on about half the tracks weren't entirely successful. More to the point, though, this was their weakest overall set of material, low lights including filler like {&"Do It"} and {&"Runnin' Blue,"} a strange {\bluegrass}-{\soul} blend that was a small hit. On the other hand, about half the record is quite good, especially the huge hit {&"Touch Me"} (their most successful integration of orchestration), the vicious {\hard rock} riffs of {&"Wild Child,"} the overlooked {&"Shaman's Blues,"} and the lengthy title track, a multi-part suite that was one of the band's best attempts to mix {\rock} with poetry. {&"Tell All the People"} and {&"Wishful Sinful,"} both penned by {$Robbie Krieger}, were uncharacteristically wistful tunes that became small hits. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide
