The Best of The Doors is a compilation album by American rock group the Doors. Released in 1985, the double LP set contains 18 songs from their six albums with lead singer Jim Morrison, including charting singles and selected album cuts.[1] Danny Sugerman contributed a short essay which discusses the band's origins and influences and Morrison's personality, and was printed inside the gatefold sleeve.

When the album was released on compact disc in 1991, it reached number 32 in the U.S. and the top twenty in several other countries. In February 2007, the album was certified as Diamond 10× by the Recording Industry Association of America.
