L.A. Woman is the sixth studio album by the American rock band the Doors, released on April 19, 1971, on Elektra Records. It is the last to feature the group's lead singer, Jim Morrison, who died three months after the album's release. It saw the band continue to integrate elements of blues back into their music, a direction begun with their previous album, Morrison Hotel. It was also recorded without long-time record producer Paul A. Rothchild, after he fell out over the band's studio performance. Subsequently, the band co-produced the album with sound engineer, Bruce Botnick
