    Jim Morrison was buried at the super famous cemetery in Paris, Père Lachaise Cemetery. You cannot believe all of the crazy famous people buried there. Will never forget going there one grey, frigid day a few days before Christmas. Cobblestone streets in this very large cemetery. We were looking for specific people's graves and Jim's was one of them. Hardly a soul in the cemetery until we got to his grave. Apparently, always a crowd. Really like a shrine.

    Ray Manzarek on keyboards is the underrated heart of this band. The Doors have no bass guitar player at all. As i understand it, when they had once thought to add a bass player early on, Ray Manzarek experimented instead with a "bass keyboard" and from that time on, they never considered having a electric bass player and all the rhythm normally kept with the bass and drums, are instead utilizing the bass keyboard and drums as rhythm section. And all the while, Ray is playing the normal "lead" keyboard music also. I have never heard of another band doing such a thing.

      Ray Neapolitan was their regular bass player during the Morrison Hotel sessions, but the day the base lines for Roadhouse Blues were recorded Ray was stuck in traffic, and Lonnie Mack just happen to have been in the studio as he was working for Electra A&R at the time - Yea, I'm a Doors freak, read the book No One Here Gets Out Alive - and an aside : Oliver Stones movie was a shit box of lies and garbage, though Val Kilmer was excellent,.. Oliver Stone is a fucking hack, Ray Manzarek not only hated Stone for the what he did to their story and to Jim's memory, he refused to even speak about the movie later and would literally get up and leave an interview if Stones Movie was brought up

      Side note, Formation: the Doors were originally Rick & the Ravens, with Ray, Rick, and Jim Manzarek, along with John Densmore on Drums and Patty Sullivan on Bass, When Ray's brothers left the band Ray recruited Morrison to sing and they brought in Robbie Krieger on guitar, they auditioned several bass players that none of them liked, so Ray decided to use the Fender Rhodes to handle bass work and they went without a bass player. they were planning to recuit a bass player eventually, but then got signed to elektra and they just said "fuck it" and went on without one - I know thats more information than you'd ever need, but I'm a self made library of useless Doors information :)

    Fun fact: the Doors did not have a bass player. The “bass” notes you hear are made with a synthesizer.
