Butts Band was a British and American group formed by ex-Doors members John Densmore and Robby Krieger, active from 1973 to 1975.
[1] Butts Band came about as a consequence of the Doors trying to find a replacement for lead singer Jim Morrison, who had died in July 1971.
The three remaining Doors had released two albums (Other Voices in 1971 and Full Circle in 1972), with Ray Manzarek and Krieger sharing vocals.
The band signed with Blue Thumb Records and began working on their first album, with longtime Doors sound engineer/co-producer Bruce Botnick taking the producer role.
"[citation needed] Following the album's release, the band appeared on The Midnight Special and the Old Grey Whistle Test.
