The Doors, New York, 1967.

Yes, the Doors! A new podcast hosted by The New Yorker’s Naomi Fry revisits the psychedelic rock band’s meteoric rise, beginning with its debut album and hit “Light My Fire.” Fry then examines their cultural legacy nearly 60 years on. Surviving members and artists such as Billy Idol join Fry to tell old stories and to explore the mythology surrounding Jim Morrison. If this podcast proves anything, it’s that the Doors’ end was not the end, beautiful friend. —Carolina de Armas
