这是“地下丝绒”的第一张专辑，也是摇滚乐历史上的一张划时代的经典之作。从专辑的名称上面可以清 楚地看到，这张专辑的诞生与西方现代艺术史上的伟大人物安迪·沃霍尔是密切相关的。这张“地下丝绒”的处女专辑就是由安迪·沃霍尔担任制作人的，而且专辑的名称也署上了他的大名。 在这张专辑里面，主唱卢·里德以他那干涩、沙哑的犹如破碎的玻璃一样的嗓音将1960年代美国青年对于现实的迷茫、反叛的态度表达得淋漓尽致，同时也对当时的社会现实作出了深刻的揭露。如在《我正在等待那个男人》这首歌里面，讲述的就是一个关于进行非法的海洛因交易的故事，把吸毒作为歌曲的主题，这在他们之前的乐队里面是非常罕见的，因此可以看出他们在音乐表达题材上面的大胆。而《星期天的早晨》这首歌则讲述了一个偏执狂在理想与现实之中挣扎的现实，他就像那个可怜的西西弗斯一样奔波在希望与绝望之间，这可以说是当时青年内心生活的真实写照。在《穿裘皮的维纳斯》这首歌里面，则表达了一个更为离经叛道的主题，那就是“性倒错”，他们以超越道德观的态度表达了自己对于“同性恋”这个当时还是一个禁忌的话题的看法。可见，他们在自己的音乐里面充分的体现了“自由”的精神，而这正是摇滚最为重要的精神财富。 在专辑之中担任了两首歌曲的主唱的女歌手尼柯，曾经主演过安迪·沃霍尔制作的几部电影，由于他的介绍，才成为了“地下丝绒”的一员。尼柯那种冷漠、飘忽，充满着厌世的没落气息的声音深刻地影响了后来无数的女歌手。

1967年9月25日，乐队推出第二张专辑Strange Days，借着第一张专辑的气势，这张专辑在2周后就上升Billboard榜的第4位，在以后几周内，The Doors的两张专辑都在排行榜的前10位。这张专辑中仍延续了第一张专辑的风格。充满幻想意味的Moonlight Drive以阴沉介绍式的低呤开头，节奏明快的Love Me Two Times，都是The Doors的名曲，最后一首又是长达11分钟的歌曲When the Music´s Over 。Jim Morrison幽暗地唱到，当音乐结束时，一切都已结束。不再有宏大的舞台，不再有欢呼的人群。不再有诗歌，不再有迈阿密姑娘。不再有凯鲁亚克和金斯伯格，不再有兰波和魏伯伦。不再吸毒，不再酗酒，不再乱交。因为我已进入死亡之门。通过这首歌曲就可以看出对于Jim Morrison来说摇滚代表的就是诗歌，而诗歌却与生命相连。

Rank 'em how you like, Rubber Soul is an undeniable pivot point in the Fab Four's varied discography no matter where, or how, you first heard it. The album was softened up in its original 12-song American edition to jibe with the Dylan/Byrds folk-rock sound, as well as squeeze money from the Parlophone catalog. The 14-song U.K. edition--the version now available on compact disc--is a different, more dynamic, and ultimately more accomplished achievement. So many classics: "Drive My Car" and "Nowhere Man" (both omitted from the U.S. edition) merge the early combustible Beatifics to a burgeoning studio consciousness; "The Word" can be read as a pre-psych warning shot; the sitar-laden "Norwegian Wood" and the evocative "Girl" (the latter written on the last night of the sessions) stand as turning points in John Lennon's oeuvre. George finally emerges too, with the McGuinn-ish "If I Needed Someone." EMI. 2005.

Waiting for the Sun is the third studio album by the American rock band The Doors. It was released in 1968 and became the band's first and only number one album and spawned their second US number one single, "Hello, I Love You". It also became the band's first hit album in the UK, where it peaked at #16 in the chart. With the exception of two songs, the material for this album was written after the band's initial songs from the formation of the group had been recorded for their debut album and second album, Strange Days. The highlight of this album was supposed to be the lengthy theatrical piece "Celebration of the Lizard", but in the end only the "Not to Touch the Earth" section was used. The song "Waiting for the Sun" would not appear on an album until Morrison Hotel.

First CD reissue of the album. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (often referred to simply as Sgt. Pepper) is the eighth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. Released on 26 May 1967, Sgt. Pepper is regarded by musicologists as an early concept album that advanced the roles of sound composition, extended form, psychedelic imagery, record sleeves, and the producer in popular music. The album had an immediate cross-generational impact and was associated with numerous touchstones of the era's youth culture, such as fashion, drugs, mysticism, and a sense of optimism and empowerment. Critics lauded the album for its innovations in songwriting, production and graphic design, for bridging a cultural divide between popular music and high art, and for reflecting the interests of contemporary youth and the counterculture. «Before Sgt. Pepper, no one seriously thought of rock music as actual art. That all changed in 1967, though, when John, Paul, George and Ringo (with "A Little Help" from their friend, producer George Martin) created an undeniable work of art which remains, after 30-plus years, one of the most influential albums of all time. From Lennon's evocative word/sound pictures (the trippy "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," the carnival-like "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite") and McCartney's music hall-styled "When I'm 64," to Harrison's Eastern-leaning "Within You Without You," and the avant-garde mini-suite, "A Day in the Life," Sgt. Pepper was a milestone for both '60s music and popular culture. --Billy Altman» Credits: Phonographic Copyright ℗ – EMI Records Ltd. Copyright © – EMI Records Ltd.

The Doors乐队于1965，在洛杉机成立，乐队成员是歌手JimMorrison、键盘手Day Manzarek、吉他手Robbie Krieger和鼓手John Densnore。乐队的倡导者Morrison为乐队取了“The Doors”的名字。同年，The Doors因为Morrison的《末日》而结识了Love乐队的歌手Arthur Lee, 由他引荐给了Joc Holzmen的Elektra唱片公司，并签约于该公司。 1967年1月，乐队首张专辑《The Doors》推出，立即在歌坛上引起了强烈的反响，不仅很快打入排行首，并且停留121周之久也为之罕见，专辑中《燃起我的心火》和《结束》两首主打歌曲更是精妙之作，充分展示了乐队乐手精湛的技艺及Morrison非凡的创作才华。7月，《燃起我的火》，精炼后又作为单曲发行，100多万张的销量使The Doors乐队成为世界一流的摇滚乐队.
