The Doors, Bass question

[HyeJinx1984]

So the doors were made up of four members:

Jim Morrison (Vocals)
Rob Krieger (Guitar)
John Densmore (Drums)
Ray Manzarek (Keyboard)

...no bassist. However, unless I'm really mistaken, there is a bass line in almost every Doors song I've heard. Is this my imagination? Who did Bass for the doors?

Ray Manzarek did sometimes. There were over a dozen studio/touring bassists including Harvey Brooks, Doug Lubahn, Lonnie Mack, Jerry Scheff, Bob Glaub, Jack Conrad, Chris Ethridge, Charles Larkey, Leland "Lee" Sklar, Ray Neapolitan, Wolfgang Melz, Willie Ruff, Kerry Magness, and Leroy Vinnegar. All according to a Doors fansite ;p

Yes, but live it was always Manzarek.
