Album Description
Available in:
The first of three releases from Ray Manzarek and Roy Rogers. Contained on this release are nine instrumentals with Ray on classical piano and Roy on slide guitar. Three of the songs are Ray Manzarek originals, two are Roy Rogers originals, two are classic Doors cuts and the last two are covers of other artists. A very “easy listening” type release compared to the bluesy rock albums they would put out later, but well worth a listen.

Ray and Roy’s work together started mostly by accident, due to the fact that they both happened to share the same personal manager, Stephen Gordon. Stephen knew both Ray and Roy well and thought they might hit it off and that their musical styles were a good fit. They first got together on February 14, 2004 at the Raven Theater in Healdsburg, CA during Ray’s solo show “An Evening of Spoken Word”. Roy came on as a special guest and played a few blues numbers with Ray. That was the start of their collaboration, which over time grew into an actual band (“The Manzarek-Rogers Band”) that released two albums and toured the country for many years.
