Robby Krieger
Electric Guitar Solo on
You Make Me Real

About

Robby Krieger's electric guitar solo is the sole improvisation on "You Make Me Real" from The Doors' 1970 album Morrison Hotel. Krieger solos at a medium 121 BPM in C with a rock feel on this Jim Morrison composition that was released as a single alongside "Roadhouse Blues." The song embodies the album's back-to-basics rock approach, and Krieger's solo delivers a straightforward, energetic guitar feature that matches the track's raw, unadorned character. Originally written in 1966, the song connects to The Doors' earliest creative period while benefiting from the band's matured performance chemistry.

Robby Krieger was 22 to 23 years old at the time.
