I see that there hasn't been much mention of José Feliciano on his page, so here's the "other 'Light My Fire" that is much hotter than The Doors original. It's a hot, muggy day to do the laundry...the perfect time to listen to JF!

Sometimes you just gotta play the Blues away. So why are the words and the tempo so very different? If nothing else, the singer won't be sad by the time the song is finished. (The players had too much fun with this number?)
