The Soft Parade

by The Doors

The Soft Parade cover art

Highly controversial upon release due to its heavy use of brass and string orchestration, The Doors' fourth album remains a fascinating, deeply pop-oriented experiment. 'The Soft Parade' balances wonderfully lush, intensely melodic baroque-pop arrangements with Jim Morrison's fiercely passionate, remarkably nocturnal, and highly surreal psychedelic poetry.
