The father of Jim Morrison's wife (he's a former school principal) is the one who inherited Jim's estate and has thwarted efforts to release things like the art film Jim starred in (one he was in for someone else, after he'd become famous).
Parental rights are odd things when marriages come into play. Like the way Terry Schivo-Schindler's husband was able to plead her case for financial gain and then to present a purely oral contract to end her life even when her parents offered to take custody. He did not have her best interests at heart and had apparently abandoned the marriage.
Even odder is the concept of trademarking celebrity. "Marilyn Monroe" died without any heirs. She gave control of her estate to her psychiatrist. That psychiatrist's wife's family now profits from her persona (including impersonators).
If Mr. Morrison wants to put his thoughts down about his estranged son in a book together with the rest of the band, I don't see a problem with this.
Good.
Because this coming out *now* is part of a marketing plan for an upcoming book.
Surely veteran forum citizens know the modus operandi of these things, by now.
Hell's bells every moonbat Liberal-Socialist has used & continues to use the same shtick.
FWIW I enjoyed Morrison's stuff for years, maybe longer than you are old, I dunno 'bout that except it's been a long time -- say 1968?
Long time.
Interestingly enough Morrison's keyboardist, Ray Manzarek, following Morrison's suicide did a solo album.
Was Ray's only effort that I knew of.
Anyway one cannot buy a copy of that one album on CD, and I for one would love to own a copy since so much of the Doors' sound came from Ray, vocals aside.
Make sure you ping me to your review of the book, weeg.
I'm sure it'll be available at Amazon.
...real soon. ;^)
