An American Prayer - Jim Morrison is a studio album by rock band The Doors. In 1978, seven years after Jim Morrison died and five years after the remaining members of the band broke up, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore reunited and recorded backing tracks over Morrison's poetry (originally recorded in a poetry session, in 1969). Other pieces of music and spoken word recorded by the Doors and Morrison were also used in the audio collage, such as dialogue from Morrison's film HWY and snippets from jam sessions. Morrison's poetry was often considered too raunchy to use in the sixties. The album received mixed reviews and is still considered unusual today, yet it has managed a platinum certification in the US, placing it roughly as high in US sales as most of the Doors studio albums (only The Doors and L.A. Woman are so far multi-platinum), a quite remarkable feat for such an unconventional album.
