"I remember him coughing and spitting up blood, probably from smoking too many cigarettes. But in my mind, Jim was indestructible": Robby Krieger looks back on the making of The Doors' LA Woman

This interview was originally published in 2012 to celebrate the 40th anniversary reissue of LA Woman.

"I'm glad that LA Woman was our last album," says Doors guitarist Robby Krieger. "It really captured what we were all about. The first record did, too, but LA Woman is more loose, it's live - it sounds almost like a rehearsal. It's pure Doors."
