Have a friend, who has been at that house in the 60's as a cousin to Robby Krieger.

Never hated The Doors, they were not overly political, and had great music.

Kind of poetic, in a sense.

Pacific Palisades was a sleepy, middle class neighborhood back then. Not the rich, celebrity enclave it later became.

Love their music, even if it was overly drug induced. Sad bit of irony about the house though.

The Doors were on of the top 3 or 4 bands of the era, if not the very top.

Underappreciated IMHO.

Blues-Rock with an ethereal flow throughout.

Densmore on drums was up there with Bonham and Baker.

The Doors music brings back fond memories. Speaking of music, at the Hotel California the invaders are living it up and burning it down.

In the 1920s movie actress Thelma Todd opened a restaurant and bar in Pac. Palisades. She ran around with Italian Mafia types like Johnny Roselli who had just invaded the LA scene. She was murdered near her place, and the LA police looked the other way. Some ole, same ole.

Interesting that their best song was not written by Morrison.

Knowing what I know about Morrison, wherever he ended up, I’m sure he’s laughing his ass off.

Krieger’s LMF has one of the best rock guitar solos ever. Original, melodic, and ethereal.
