So for us paupers who couldn't afford or obtain the Fun House Sessions box, the new re-issue is a god send.

Question though: who does that Ray Manzarek impersonation on the single version of this? Is it Don Galluci himself?

I've heard the album cut of this a million times, so when that keyboard kicks in, I nearly dropped out of my chair. It has that "Give it that Doors Elektra sound for the single, the kids will go crazy!" quality to it.

I have photocopies of the paperwork for the box somewhere. IIRC, Don Galluci played keyboards on Louie, Louie (for fuck's sake!), so I wouldn't be surprised if it was him.

The box set is pretty unwieldy, if great; I'll be excited if the Fun House disc is a good distillation of it.
