Análisis (en inglés) - :
This European import CD contains both {$Doors}' LPs {^Other Voices} (1971) and {^Full Circle} (1972). {$John Densmore} (drums/vocals), {$Ray Manzarek} (keyboards/bass pedals/vocals) and {$Robbie Krieger} (guitar/vocals) anticipated having new material readied once {$Jim Morrison} returned from his sabbatical in Paris, France. As his vocals would not be forthcoming, the remaining three-piece lineup forged ahead to complete the tracks. With stylistic continuity bleeding over from {^L.A. Woman}, {^Other Voices} is considered the most cohesive of the pair with primary entries including the blues-fuelled opener {&"In the Eye of the Sun"} and the esoteric love song {&"Ships w/ Sails"}. Listen for guest musicians {$Ray Neapolitan} (electric bass), {$Willie Ruff} (standup acoustic bass} and {$Francisco Aguabella}'s unmistakable conga and percussion. The {$Doors} prove their capabilities as a no-nonsense rock and roll trio on the raucous {&"Tightrope Ride"}. {$Manzarek} does a tremendous job on {$Krieger}'s humbling {&"Wandering Musician"}, exemplifying a versatility that was often overshadowed in {$the Doors}' earlier configuration. Like the aforementioned {&"Tightrope Ride,"} the concluding cut {&"Hang On To Your Life"} bears philosophical queries that could be rooted in {$Morrison}'s conspicuous absence. {^Other Voices} made it into the Top 40 pop album charts, although {^Full Circle} (1972) -- the last full-length effort from {$Densmore}, {$Krieger} and {$Manzarek} -- did not. One reason commonly cited when contrasting the two post-{$Morrison} platters is {^Full Circle}' s comparatively shorter and less productive maturation process. There are a couple of excellent cuts, such as {&"Verdilac"}. It is one of two selections with guest {$Charles Lloyd} (flute/tenor sax) who also contributes to {&"The Piano Bird"}. The latter was written by {$Manzarek} and bassist {$Jack Conrad}. One incidental side note, still unissued in the digital domain is the {^Full Circle} era b-side title {&"Tree Trunk"} -- which could only be found on UK editions of the {&"Get Up And Dance"} 45 rpm. ~ Lindsay Planer, All Music Guide
