Rolling Stone has named him one of the 100 best guitarists of all time. Krieger has performed alongside band members from Blue Oyster Cult, Oingo Boingo, The Black Crowes, Fuel, The Cult and Gov’t Mule. As the guitarist, and arguably the band’s secret weapon, he wrote or co-wrote many of the band’s songs, including “Light My Fire”, “Love Me Two Times”, “Touch Me”, and “Love Her Madly”. Krieger’s energetic fingerstyle approach to the electric guitar, broad musical tastes, and songwriting helped establish the Doors as a successful rock band in the 1960’s and beyond. They got their start in the late ’60s on Long Island, New York, as the Soft White Underbelly, but each member had been involved in bands previously in high school and college, before ending up in the “right place at the right time” to create the beginnings of Blue Öyster Cult. The band has sold over 24 million albums worldwide, including 7 million in the United States alone. Spanning three decades, Blue Öyster Cult has a long and storied history, including hits such as “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper”, “Godzilla” and “Burnin’ for You”.
