Perception is a 40th-anniversary edition 12-disc box set by The Doors. The CDs contain the 1999 remastered editions of all the Jim Morrison era albums, while the DVD-Audio discs contain new (2007) "40th Anniversary" stereo and surround remixes of those albums as well as visual extras. Each album includes extra tracks consisting of previously unreleased session outtakes. Exclusive to the box set is a DVD with several live performances and other extras. The title is almost certainly a reference to the Aldous Huxley book The Doors of Perception, which inspired the band's name.
All songs written by Jim Morrison, Robby Krieger, Ray Manzarek, and John Densmore, except where noted.
