The last few years 

Doors of the 21st century I will look at seperatly but this is a brief run down of what has been happening in the world of the doors since 2004.

In 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine ranked The Doors #41 on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

Plenty of hype was announced in 2006 for the upcoming 40th anniversary of the group's debut album. This saw another box-set of the studio recordings (see recorded output), a coffee table book "The Doors by The Doors" and the beginning of production of an officially sanctioned documentary about the group.

The Doors, along with the Grateful Dead and Joan Baez, received a lifetime achievement award at the 2007 Grammy Awards.

On February 16, 2007 Ian Astbury quit Riders on the Storm, and relaunched his old band The Cult.

On February 28, 2007, The Doors received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

On March 14, 2007 Brett Scallions, former lead singer of the band Fuel, was announced as the new lead singer of Riders on the Storm.

On July 24, 2007, The Doors released a live 3-Disc album. Recorded at Boston Arena in April 10, 1970.

The Doors 

The best rock band ever..!!

The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California by vocalist Jim Morrison, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, drummer John Densmore, and guitarist Robby Krieger. Morrison's cryptic lyrics and unpredictable behavior were the subject of controversy. After Morrison's death on July 3, 1971, the remaining members continued as a threesome until disbanding in 1973.

Despite a career that barely totaled eight years, The Doors still enjoy a huge cult following as well as status in the mainstream music industry as being hugely influential and original. According to the RIAA, they have sold over 32 million albums in the US alone.
