Are there any other doors fans out there? My mom was in
love with them (mostly Morrison), and I love most of their
music aswell, Morrison was a great poet in his early days,
very well read. It's really great experimental music for
the time, it's to bad Morrison loved drugs so much... if I
could see one rock and roll concert, it would be a doors
concert in there hayday: totally spontanious and
unpredictable, weirdness all around, you just never know
whats next... classic

I'm a big fan ever since I saw Olivier Stone's movie about
them. I've got al their work and they have so much beter
things on album than that they released.
My favorite album is An American Prayer.
I even did a pilgrimage to Pere lachaise a couple of years
ago. Very spiritual place. :)

"The End" in Apocalypse Now is absolutely one of the
greatest moments in the history of cinema. Absolutely
magical.

I've seen once the 'LA Doors'. Nice show and the guy who
'played' Jim was one hell of a character actor, including
bottle of jack and burning joint. I really enjoyed that
show.

I love the fucking Doors. Listening to "Best Of" now.
Morrison was cool, but the band was totally unique. Great
stuff.

ehheeh

you know i didn't get into the doors till i was in college,
and it was cos a friend was SO into them. it finally sunk
in, and i'm ashamed that i wasn't INTO them sooner cos their
music just ROCKED. and to see Morrison preform musta been
somethang ELSE.

*likes people are strange, da most*

A friend of mine in College was a big Greatful Dead fan,
but he absolutely hated the Doors. Said they were too dark
and negative or some shit. I personally listened to hundreds
of hours of the Dead while smoking grass in this cat's
apartment, and they only bored me for the most part.

Legends, but I don't like them as much as I used to, already
went through my Doors phase a few years ago. Morrison is
undeniably a Sex Gawd.

The Doors were an amazing band.

They're music was so creative, not one song resembled any
other, Jim was an outstanding performer and wrote some great
poetry.

The only thing I regret about them is that these days there
are too many live albums and best off-compilations around,
but that's not their fault probably.

Jim would turn himself in his grave if he knew what their
were doing with his art. That's if he's actually dead
offcourse. :)

Verkrampte, is it the Sugarman bio that you're reading?

I used to love them about 8 years ago when I was smoking
weed all the time.

While I stand by a few songs like the End, Riders etc I
think they aren't very good. And Morrison's pretentious
"poetry" is mostly complete guff.

Yeah I pretty much agree. I like about 6-8 songs by them,
the rest I think is horrendous. Decent film though (if
ludicrously exaggerated).

Jar: I take it you were as jubilant as I when you heard the
news of our Cathy's victory in the courts.

But yeah, get yo'self the Best Of and you have all you need
by them. Even if they are a bit 6th form.

Absolutely, in celebration I watched my entire collection of
Darling Buds of May videos. She was so wholesome back then.

You're right about the 6th form thing as well, practically
my entire class was listening to the Doors as a means of
illustrating how "grown up" they were.

Quite, quite. She was almost obtainable back then. But now,
forget about it! There's no way a guy like me, and a girl
like her...

Yeah, every 16 to 18 year old goes through a Doors phase.

The Doors are a fine band. But respect-wise, they're just
like Led Zeppelin... a lot of not-so-musically inclined
n00bs give them too much credit, and a lot of snooty
elitists don't give them enough.

They've aged, but I think they've done it with style, a
goofy/graceful hybrid. Really, the organ sound is extremely
distinctive, as is Jim's whole attitude and voice. And I'll
be fuckdamned if Not to Touch the Earth isn't totally
fucking awesome.
