Hi. Title says it all. Let's post non-brickwalled or otherwise highly messed-up (clipping) masters.

 I also like Frank Zappa's work.
 
P.S. I didn't necessarily mean that the band must be similar to PF or Doors (i.e. must be a rock band). I think saying that a person likes PF or Doors describes what he looks for in the music and he might find that 'something' in various genres.

I will post some obvious.
 
Genesis : Their early albums, everyhing before "Wind and Wuthering".
Porcupine Tree : It's a bit more heavy, but you might like it.
Radiohead : Almost everything, but give each album a few tries, it takes time to appreciate.
Black Sabbath : "Paranoid record".
Santana : "Caravanserai" and "Abraxas"
Eloy : "Silent Cries and Mighty Echoes" and "Dawn"
King Crimson : "In the Court of Crimson King" and "Red"
Camel : "Moonmadness" and "Mirage"
Steve Hackett: "Voyage of the Acolyte"

Icelandic band called Andrum - afaik, they have one album out ("Andvakar") and they sound to me exactly like Pink Floyd would if they ever went to Iceland instead of Pompeii.
 
Another icelandic band - Sigur Ros. For starters try their Agaetis Byrjun. beyond awesome, and again, reminds me of Pink Floyd in their prime.

Airbag - All Rights Removed

 

 
Airbag’s music is perhaps best described as scenic, epic rock or, as legendary Classic Rock Magazine said: “Reminiscent of a late-nite, laid-back Pink Floyd”.

Edit : Norwegian band !
