  It's a blues tradition that when the husband leaves out the front door, the wife's lover sneaks in through the back door. Naturally, the blues singer sings from the position of being the back door man. I don't think anyone ever refers to themselves as the "front door man." lol

  To really understand this and plus it&apos;s just so damn good, you should really check out the original Howling Wolf version of this. It&apos;s fantastic. Along with a whole lot of his stuff.

  Asia and BJ: &nbsp;This version of the song will always be an enigms. &nbsp;When the sing was written by bluesman Willie Dixon, it was simply about a player who services many a married woman, and to avoid arousing suspicion enters/exits through the back door of the house.<br><br>Jim Morrison, allegedly, tried to add another meaning to the song - about a man with a hunger and preference for the &quot;back door.&quot; &nbsp;Did Morrison truly intend that? &nbsp;IDK. <br><br>Willie Dixon believed that about Morrison, and he was not happy about it.

  A Willie Dixon blues song from 1961, this has been covered by John Hammond Jr. and Howlin&apos; Wolf, among others. The Doors decided to cover this after their guitarist Robby Krieger heard John Hammond Jr.&apos;s version. <br>A &quot;back door man&quot; is a guy who has relations with a woman while her husband has been out slaving away to provide for her. The guilty perpetrator if a wife was caught cheating was typically a tradesman caller like the ice man, or an insurance salesman. He would run out the back door to avoid detection when the husband entered through the front.

  The Doors are my favorite! &nbsp;You need to do Roadhouse Blues next if you like their blues sound!
