Wild Child is the most popular international touring act that has recreated the look and sound of The Doors. The band has traveled the world and routinely sells out the largest national act rock clubs in Southern California, where they are based. This 22 song double disc CD has The Doors biggest hits as well as the classics.
This CD was recorded all LIVE! The songs for the most part are not the studio versions of the original. Rather they are bits and pieces of live Doors live versions. Many songs that Wild Child perform, are versions that have been spliced together from several different live Doors versions of the same track. To make a single unique version, never before heard.
The sounds of the songs on this CD are entirely accurate and true to the Doors Live and Studio sound. There are no synthesized organs on this CD. We used a Vox Continental and Gibson G-101 organs on all tracks (where there is organ - same as Ray used). We used a Fender sparkle top Key bass to get the bottom end. We also use Gibson SG standard guitars (same as Robby used). We used a 1967 Ludwig swirl drum kit as well (same as Densmore used). Not to mention, Dave Brock's vocals mirroring Morrison's unique voice to within a fraction of perfection.
Many experts that have heard the CD have said it is very hard to tell it from a live Doors version. And they would not have known it wasn't the Doors if someone hadn't told them otherwise. Some have even implied that we have stolen an old Door concert tape and put it out.
