It has been 50 years now today, that Jim Morrison died.
I am sure there will be a respectful gathering today at Pėre Lachaise in Paris. I was also there once. Thank you for your great music Jim Morrison! Best Moritz ...
Rock and Roll has never been interpretated like this again.
Very interllectual and avant-garde. I here Bertold Brecht and generally the music of the 30ies/40ies from Germany in many songs of The Doors.
Thank you, I know.
I will watch it now and a second time in a fortnights time with lots of whisky, as I am dieting at the moment and don't drink. 🥃🥃
After five whisky free weeks I am enjoying all Arte docunentaries
At 9 drams I am at the Isle of Wight concert ...

Yes, The Doors where highly intellectual. Manserek and the others all painters, poets, writers. They where Bowie, but than as a band. I like Cream a lot. Bruce, Eric, and Ginger.
I was also thinking of David Bowie in this context 😀
A shame, I did not put in into the post, but Bowie is also top level of music as an artistic expression.
One of the greatest. 27 Club.
Very much of my taste. I have enjoyed LA woman theme countless times. Here is another and quite provoking. https://m. Make me feel alriiiiiiiiiight. Nice weekend..
Great band
Jim was Jimbo sometimes. Racing in a muscle car completely nuts. Let’s remember him as a great performer. With the great electric piano input of Ray Manserek.
But with drugs and alcohol?
Rock and Roll is nice, the stars living a risky life. I enjoy life without risky drinks and drugs. Let’s say, if i would be a star i want to life the life of George Clooney. Or Daniel Craig. But i know myself, i am more a musician. ...
Incredible music ...
Try listening to “Riders on the storm” one night in the dark when it’s raining.
.... I did, in a bed with a woman. Aaah, my heydays.
I mean, I am still in my heydays😀🥃🥃
True story: there was a regular customer at The Rainbow . . .
. . . who would barge in half-drunk, order a shot of tequila from the bar, then walk over to the cashier and 'ask' she play LA Woman , handing her $20 in the process. As soon as it came on, he'd slam the tequila, pound it on the nearest counter, turn arou...
That’s so funny..
It was coming down in buckets last night on the Hudson and I had Riders on …the song was a rework of a movie western theme song that they slowed down..extremely interesting band musically. They initially come off as a garage band but Krieger was a classic...
My wife was fortunate to see them live in Berkeley...
For one of the best covers ever of a Doors song, give a listen to Patricia Barber cover Light My Fire from her Album Modern Cool
