Even though Jim stood out far more than the rest of his band mates, I believe Ray was the glue that held them all together

Wrong......light my fire was Robby's song.... everyone knows the Doors for that masterpiece.....and he wrote the most popular songs like love her madley, love me two times etc. They were all unique and excellent !

@@pleun315 sure, other members wrote the hits, but you can't deny Ray's organ was something else. Ray was the one who took over when Jim couldn't do anything. Ray stood up for the Doors in a financial way and kept them all from being broke. Without Ray ever having brought up the idea of a band to Jim, none of them would've ever thought of the Doors (though you could say there would be no Doors without Ray, Jim, John, and Robby)

@@PichuHasStems Agree. Ray tasked Robby with coming up with some songs, and Krieger went home and came up with Light My Fire. Robby might not have thought he ever had it in him if not for Manzarek. In 1987, I listened to a radio interview with the Manzarek, Densmore, and Krieger on the 20th anniversary of the release of Light My Fire. It was clear that Ray was the leader and driving force of the band, articulate, intelligent and always interesting.

When the Doors performed live, Ray Manzareks organ was just one small keyboard with electric bass, he played the bass with one hand and the the organ keyboards with the other hand, and yet it sounded sooo good, he was a very talented great keyboard player, he was a an important part of what of what made the doors one great bands of rock.

Ray always seemed to be the most level headed, chill and smart of the 4 but Jim died too young at 27 so we’ll never know the man he might’ve become. He was definitely already growing tired of the stupid rockstar lifestyle before his death by all accounts. Rays work on the keyboard/organ gave The Doors that distinct edge that made them sound like no other band ever. I’m surprised more bands haven’t followed suit.
