"Mr. Mojo Risin': The Story of L.A. Woman'" is the story of the making of the Doors' last album with Jim Morrison "L.A. Woman". 2011 is the 40th anniversary of the album's release and this program goes into detail of how the album came about, its recording and what was happening to the band at the time.
The story is told through new interviews with the three surviving Doors: Ray Manzarek, Robbie Krieger and John Densmore plus contributions from Jac Holzman, founder of their label Elektra Records, Bill Siddons, who was their manager, Bruce Botnick, engineer and co-producer of the album and others associated with the Doors at this time. The show includes archive footage of the Doors performing both live and in the studio, classic photographs and new musical demonstrations from the Doors.

1969年，The Who出版了双唱片概念专辑《Tommy/冲破黑暗谷》，后人把它定义为历史上第一张成功的摇滚音乐剧专辑。《Tommy》的成功不仅在于商业上，它还同时在主流音乐杂志和地下摇滚刊物中获得了认同。同年，乐队举行全球巡演，地点包括伦敦大剧场和纽约大都会音乐剧场。从《Tommy》发行以来，关于它的故事情节从未被认真解释过，所以本片是原作者第一次阐述创作主旨和专辑制作具体过程，以及随之而来的成功如何改变了他们的生活。
