Rolling Stone reports producer Bruce Botnick recently discovered "She Smells So Nice" while reviewing the album's session tapes for the reissue, due January 24.
The 2-disc set features alternate takes including "Love Her Madly," "Riders on the Storm" and the title track.
“Love Her Madly” has an extended fade-out making in 18 seconds longer than the original version; “Cars Hiss By My Window” has had an additional verse added making it 4:58 instead of 4:12. “L.A. Woman” includes the guitar intro “My Country, 'Tis Of Thee,” making it 7:59, 10 seconds longer.
For the bonus disc, two first time releases include The Doors' versions of Willie Dixon's “(You Need Meat) Don't Go No Further” and Barrett Strong's “Money (That's What I Want),” as well as the Jim Morrison composition “Orange County Suite.”
The album, and a companion DVD on the making of it, will mark the start of Year of the Doors 2011-2012.
“L.A. Woman” was the 6th album for The Doors and the last album Jim Morrison recorded before his death. The album was released in April, 1971; Morrison died in July, 1971.
