"Mute nostril agony" or whatever. Very cool. I think this album often gets ignored at the expense of others in the Doors' catalogue. I remember a local alternative radio show host getting his show cut about 1980. For the last song of the last show he played "When the Music's Over." And he walked out of the studio and left the inner groove skipping. The next DJ scrambled to cover the dead air - I think he played Foreigner's "Ditry White Boy" or something of that sort.

Can't say enough about "Horse Latitudes" and its impact on me. I feel it works best in how it is placed on the out-of-print double album "Weird Scenes Inside the Gold Mine." There it is followed by the awesome "When the Musics Over", which is how I first heard HL way back then. Also to add to your comments, the cover!! (front and back). The whole experience of the sinister carnival-like aspect of the Doors was heightned by the striking images of the circus folk. Disturbing and alluring. Strange Days, indeed.
