Despite the negative criticism of the addition of brass and strings to some of 'The Soft Parade' tracks, I think it was a brilliant idea, and also think it's their second-best album (the debut being #1 of course). Sure, in 1969, the concept of brass (and other orchestral instruments) incorporated with rock groups was the order of the day for certain acts - Blood, Sweat & Tears, and Chicago being prime examples. Applied to the Doors, it takes some of the heavy-handedness of Morrison's vocals off in favor of a brighter, snappier arrangement ("Tell All the People", "Touch Me") and even w/o the added instrumentation, the rest of the album is unlike anything the Doors did before....

There is some excellent material here...., especially the huge hit "Touch Me" (their most successful integration of orchestration), the vicious hard rock riffs of "Wild Child," the overlooked "Shaman's Blues," and the lengthy title track, a multi-part suite that was one of the band's best attempts to mix rock with poetry. "Tell All the People" and "Wishful Sinful," both penned by Robbie Krieger, were uncharacteristically wistful tunes that became small hits.
