His keyboard work showed that a R&R band didn't need a bassist.

not entirely correct.

Strange Days was the first Doors album recorded with a studio musician on bass on most of the tracks, and this continued on all subsequent studio albums.[17] Manzarek explained that his keyboard bass was well-suited for live situations but that it lacked the "articulation" needed for studio recording.

Ray was awesome.

He would build his solos slowly and keep raising the pitch higher and higher
He was a master at creating solos
I listened to his playing more than many guitar players
