Good Evening CW Members--- 11:00 PM)2016-10-14
I found this LP today at the Value Village, it just came in today, because i have take a look early and was't there, so very lucky for me, a good occasion with the 400 hundred post from Brunswick(Thomas) to post it for him.
The Doors" The Soft Parade" with the RARE Gold Label from Elektra EKS-75005. Light wear to the sleeve, record is in good condition with some light scratches, original black white picture of the Doors members+ lyric on the back side, nice to see not missing.
The Art work is sober in the front, but when open up reveal some great design ideal from the 70s.
The main song of this album"The Soft Parade" was in my opinion one of there best song, for me.
Congrats Thomas on your 400th Post.
""When I was back there in seminary school
There was a person there
Who put forth the proposition
That you can petition the Lord with prayer
Petition the lord with prayer
Petition the lord with prayer
You cannot petition the lord with prayer""
Can you give me sanctuary
I must find a place to hide
A place for me to hide
Can you find me soft asylum
I can't make it anymore
The Man is at the door.........

The Soft Parade is the fourth studio album by the American rock band the Doors, and was released on July 18, 1969, on Elektra Records (see 1969 in music). It saw the group departing from the material that encompassed their past three albums. The Doors incorporated brass and string arrangements into their compositions at a point in which the group was experiencing personal issues, particularly related to Jim Morrison. In addition, the album fulfilled the band's desire to feature more jazz and blues influences in their work.
Upon release, the album peaked at number six on the Billboard Top LPs chart. It was preceded by the single "Touch Me" in December 1968, which awarded the Doors an unexpected top-ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and several other accolades, including a number-one listing in the Cashbox charts. Three additional singles, "Wishful Sinful", "Tell All the People", and "Runnin' Blue", also became moderate hits on the Billboard singles charts.
