Possibly the most enigmatic band of the '60s was the legendary Los Angeles band The Doors. They are easily one of the most mythologized groups in rock history, between their dark sound, poetic lyrics, and the complicated maelstrom that was Jim Morrison, there was a nature to the band that was impossible to look away from.
One of the most important parts of that sound is guitarist Robby Krieger, who through simplicity and tight rhythms created some of the most iconic rock riffs of all time. His playing fits the style of the band perfectly. It's punchy, smooth, mysterious, and psychedelic. Take a song like "The End." The guitar work on that song is so simple yet so atmospheric, haunting, and instantly iconic. The second it starts I'm plunged into a world of darkness that absorbs the whole soundscape.
Another iconic song from the band is "L.A. Woman," which Krieger recently performed within the hallowed walls of the Whisky A Go Go in LA.

♬ original sound - Robby KriegerKrieger still has such a powerful command over the song, with the small simple subtlety working so well. The video showcases a masterful ability to keep things simple and serving the song.
Fans were absolutely loving the video, taking the comments to show their support for legend that is still performing for us today.
"Awesome playing. Love this song! ?"
"Robby is a living legend."
"Absolute king on stage. ?"
The fact that we can still hear these songs from the source in 2026 is remarkable. The Doors' self titled debut is going to be sixty years old next year, marking six decades of one of music's most enduring acts. With musicians like Robby still around, the wonder and mystery of sixties continue to live on with the incredible music produced back then.
