Production
The album was recorded at Sunset Sound Studios in California over six days, with producer Paul Rothchild and audio engineer Bruce Botnick. A four track tape machine was used for recording using mostly three tracks, bass and drums on one, guitar and organ on another with Jim's voice on the third. The fourth track was used for overdubbing. During recording of the album session bassist Larry Knechtel was present on some of the songs, while on stage Ray Manzarek used a left-handed keyboard bass. For tracks "The End" and "Light My Fire" two takes were worked of each and cut together to achieve the final song.
