THE DOORS 13 was a certified Platinum Record, this group's first compilation album, and the only such "best of" collection issued while Jim Morrison was alive (Nov. '70). Its highest Billboard 200 chart position was 25, during the first two weeks of January '71.

The release in April '71 of the Doors' sixth (and last) studio album, L.A. WOMAN, immediately made "13" obsolete. It in fact (or coincidentally) fell off the charts in early May.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Criminally Deleted Best Of, April 3, 2010

By 

Dave "Fever Tree" Sigmon (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 13 (Vinyl)

"Morrison Hotel" notwithstanding, I have never been enamored with this group's album output. Sure they've had their decent moments on each LP, even on 1968's limp "Waiting For The Sun". Having said that, it astonishes me as to how Elektra unerringly selected these 13 performances. Though the "Unknown Soldier" still drags at the fadeout and I wish they didn't bypass the classic "Break On Through", no other Doors album has ever generated such consistency. And I'm quite grateful to find "Moonlight Drive", "People Are Strange", "Wild Child", "Roadhouse Blues" and "Land Ho!" all on one platter. This showcases Jim at his most emotive and the band hits its peak of vibrancy. Also, most of the pretense is held at bay.
