“Robby Krieger Says Jim Morrison Wanted to Experience Insanity”
Was he married?
He was part brilliant, part insane, part showman- the Lizard King, Mr. Mojo Risin'.
Doors music has gotten better over the years. I enjoy revisiting Riders, LA Woman, Crystal, Alabama, Love Street, Wasp, Hyacinth House. Jim's deep lyrics and Ray's flowing keyboard are a combination nobody else could duplicate.
A self destructive rock star, more the rule than the exception, especially back in those days.
It seems a fair amount of people today are choosing madness over love, peace and happiness and certainly over the eternal love of Jesus Christ. I wonder why that is ?
“Whenever the press would ask about his family, he would say that they were dead. His mom was weird, she was very bossy but he was fixated on her.”
Thats because his father was commander in the navy fighting in Vietnam. He did it out of respect for his father if anything.
The real interesting story is when Jim’s girlfriend Pamala Coursin died a few years later. Jim left everything to her in his will. When she died, the Coursin family inherited Morrisons estate. Everything, Morrisons family sued to get a piece of the action and had no real standing, so effectively and legally screwed. Pam’s mother and father graciously offered to split the estate with the Morrison family when they legally didn’t have to. Today worth millions.
I thought it was a show. I mean, a heck of a show!
How could it have been anything else?
Let me tell you about Texas radio and the big beat. Out here on the perimeter there are no stars.....
The Doors were, and still are, great.
I despise Oliver Stone. He could screw up a soup sandwich.
Rd later.
