TDG Doors Playlist; • The Doors Here you find unique Doors Stuff ;)
James Douglas Morrison (December 8, 1943 - July 3, 1971) was an American singer, musician, songwriter and poet, who was the lead vocalist of the rock band the Doors. Due to his wild personality, poetic lyrics, distinctive voice, unpredictable and erratic performances, and the dramatic circumstances surrounding his life and early death, Morrison is regarded by music critics and fans as one of the most iconic and influential frontmen in rock history. Since his death, his fame has endured as one of popular culture's most rebellious and oft-displayed icons, representing the generation gap and youth counterculture.
Together with pianist Ray Manzarek, Morrison co-founded the Doors in July 1965 in Venice, California. The band spent two years in obscurity until shooting to prominence with their number-one single in the United States, "Light My Fire", taken from their self-titled debut album. Morrison recorded a total of six studio albums with the Doors, all of which sold well and received critical acclaim. Morrison was well known for improvising spoken word poetry passages while the band played live. Manzarek said Morrison "embodied hippie counterculture rebellion".
Morrison developed an alcohol dependency in the 1960s, which at times affected his performances on stage. He died unexpectedly in Paris at the age of 27, amid conflicting witness reports. Since no autopsy was performed, the cause of Morrison's death remains disputed. Though the Doors recorded two more albums after Morrison died, his death severely affected the band's fortunes, and they split up in 1973. In 1993, Morrison was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Doors.

Cool! Thanks for the link.
You can definitely tell she is Jim's sister. She's got them eyes... She seems like a very kind person
I am so thankful she was able to obtain and then saved Jim's works to share with us. The Morrisons must have all been very intelligent people.
I absolutely love that Anne has chosen to release her brothers poetry ..
also, I have to say that the Courson family, while they might have cashed out a little … we have to be thankful that they did care for his items .. you can’t say that everyone would do the same …
I read that the Coursin family won everything
Pam inherited from probate court after Pam died. Pam’s family voluntarily gave Jim’s family half
Pam's family loved Jim very very much, even before he was a rock star, especially Pam's father Corky who, after his daughter died at 27, did his absolute best to keep Jim's writing safe because he knew how much the writing meant to Jim and how badly Jim wanted to be seen as a poet.
@@lestatsluv317 Agreed. I've heard Corky in various Doors retrospectives and he always comes across that he thought the world of Jim. You can tell he was genuinely proud of his son in law.
Jim Morrison and The Doors changed my life. They SAVED my life, actually. God bless Jim Morrison, Ray Manzerek, Robbie Krieger and John Densmore.

How did the doors save your life. Very curious
Same. Saved me. The whole band. Love all y'all.
@Let Your L⚡️GHT Forever Shine ❤️ Yes, Indian Summer! Awesome
Don't know if they saved my life, but they were my life, on and off for many years.
Ordered Anne's book...
I loved Jim Morrison since I was 15/ I'm 64 and still love his music , his incredible talent. His legend will never die.Hope to go Paris someday to visit the cemetery. Looking forward to reading your book Anne and thank you for sharing these precious memories you have.
Paris is a magical place .
I was pleasantly surprised about what Jim Morrison was really like in a few full length interviews that are posted here on UA-cam. I think they are from the last couple of years of his life and one was just before he was going to Paris. They are very intriguing and you realize how articulate and very polite he was. Nothing like the image created by him with the Lizard King or from Oliver Stone's movie. In one of the interviews he talks about those personas in a very real and honest way. I think for me what defines Jim Morrison the best is a video on UA-cam that combines the song Indian Summer and then has Jim reading his poem Far Arden over top of music by Erik Satie. There are a couple of those videos but the best one is where they show paintings of Paris while he recites Far Arden over Erik Satie's piano piece. Both those pieces are beautiful art and show the depth of his thoughts. His sister is absolutely right about him. The story she tells of all the books he had at his Grandmother's house that he had read and the English Professor at the University hadn't heard of most of the authors tells you something about Jim's self education. Brilliant but with some demons. Don't we all have those? I love the words her father chose for Jim's gravestone. I was in Paris and was at his gravesite and wondered about that epitaph. I was pleasantly surprised when I finally looked up what it meant and the story of her father going back to an old professor to find those words. A father honoring his son. A sister honoring her brother in this interview and with the release of James Douglas Morrison selected writings. Thank you.

Im glad Jims estate is back in the Morrison family. Its good to see Jims sister keeping Jims work alive.
Agreed.
Jim would have wanted this, for his sister to do this book 📚 coming straight from family good video 👍👍
@@pleun315 I agree, the book is just amazing. Jim certainly comes through with his thoughts and wishes.
Nice sister
I'm not sure you will ever see this Anne, but I"m a relative. I just recently found out that my great grand mother Jennie Myrtle Clarke Matteson is the sister of Dalton Clarke your maternal grandfather. I found Jims work when I was around thirteen and I was obsessed. I have been a life long fan and now in my fifties I find out he and you are my cousins.
I'm glad that after fifty years, Jim's life is celebrated in a collective book and even more so that his sister had a part in it. He will always be timeless and ahead of his time thru the ages. His life was his work of art and only once in a lifetime does someone with his creativity, charm, talent and wisdom leave such a mark on this world as he has done. He will never be forgotten ♥️
He is Johnny depp
Beautifully said!
@@sandysay1332 Johnny Depp is Jim
@@sandysay1332 You’re an apple
This is so cool, for such a long time we heard nothing from Jim's family.
What fantastic little sister he had. Thanks for your work Anne.
Amazing to see the sister of Jim Morrison, the fabled rock god of the 1960s. Awesome ❤❤❤
I was always impressed by how Jim Morrison came across as a great intellect. I love the way he spoke in interviews and I could tell he was a brilliant and intelligent guy
I gladly bought the book for myself as a 2021 Christmas gift. I was a big time Doors fan when Jim was alive. We , my late older brother Tom and I , went on a road trip in June/July 1971. We did not know Jim was in Paris then. We drove from N.J. to Vallejo California to visit our Uncle and Aunt. We hoped to go to a Doors concert back then. Most people in 1971 thought Jim Morrison's death was another rock n roll hoax. I think by August or September of that year we believed it to be true. Sadly , sometime in 1972, I bought another Doors album , no Jim Morrison was on that album, thus it was true. Forty years later in 2011 , at age 57 , I got back into the Doors. Glad I did , cause in 2013 we lost Ray.
hi Daniel , I read your write up with intrest , about Jim Morrison ! Like yourself , I got into west coast music , in the mid 1960s , though I m from west london , and had the good fortune of seeing the DOORS in london , with a nice little up and comming group supporting them , called Jefferson airoplane supporting them !ha , ha . what a cheek they where brilliant too !
Sadly , Jim died on my 21st birthday , 3/7/71 , I believe Jim really found his innerself in his short time in Paris ! Where , I / my family live , ! As a lifetime ,musician , I did with friends a tribute to Jim , in Montemartre , ( the artistic community / and where jim rests, today ! )
The Magic of Paris ( finding your Dreams )
ua-cam.com/video/6Kz6r4muEj0/v-deo.html ,it includes light by fire / crystal ship /and a song we wrote using his title STRANGE DAYS , as if Jim was,still alive and working/ living on the Paris scene ! today and what he possibly might have wrote ! best wishes from france . ritchie .
p.s. my family visit , Jims resting place often , and it is treated , with great respect !
p.p.s Theres a video also on you tube of the Doors visiting Jims resting place , and playing a local club here ( le SCENE ) a number of years ago also .
I remember that July. Well. It was muggy. It seemed the world was ... choking on itself. First Jimi. Then Janis. What. Then Jim. When did all our stars get old ... why did they die. It was a wave that had spiraled out. The soul of the world had to ... take a breath. And exhale. What a summer. What a to time. What a day. I can still feel that July in the core of my bones. I was laying out side ... covered in sun tan oil on a couple bath towels with my older, bitch sister. Hot. At least a hundred degrees. Hot. Hey did you here that that Jim Morrison ... dude, like died today. Yeah. Man. Just like Hendrix. At this point we were too tired to .. sustain another let down breakup. We were done.The Beatles. No longer valid. A little red haired, elf of a girl was trying on TV. Jim who?. I was nine and I knealt my head and prayed a prayer for the "Jim" dude. File the name away for future research. I heard he was important. From my sister. My sister made sure I was cool. Drunk Boones Farm Strawberry Hill, with a Robin Egg, a yellow jacket and criss cross. My brother has the joint. My sister taught me how to dance the "dirty dog" and the appropriate many ways too use the word ... fuck. What. Would we be without our sisters. Fed me night shade when I was 4. Gave me acid ... When I was fourteen. Sisters. Sisters are shitty babysitter's. Right. I gotta go call my sister, now. 🤠
SHE'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PERSON
Anne seems to be so grounded and wonderful. Thank you for your telling of the times with your brother.
Anne has such a nice voice...
I wish my first concert was the The Doors! ~We all have a "brother" in Jim. I've always been impressed by Anne, it was easy to see that she loved Jim deeply -and she "got" him, which is some comfort as a fan, for reasons that true *fans* will understand. What an amazing work of heart this book is, I'm looking forward very much to owning a copy. Jim's been a hero, and inspiration to me for many years, and I have no doubt that he would have gone on to produce video and film. JDM was a genius, and I think he proved that by expanding the borders of rock and roll to encompass epic oral poetry. It's very moving and heartening to see the level of love and respect that his geat work is held in, and to see his art being treated with the love and care it so rightly deserves. 🏆
Blessed with such a great sister as well as all that talent 🙂
From Spain Madrid. Listening The Doors since 16yo. Act 41 yo. He changed my life and opened my mind to discover the human essence. He was a libertarian and knowed so well how world is manipulated by Govs. I went to Paris, and I was visiting his grave. France is closer to our country. I went alone. It was sunday, very early in the morning. I spent a weekend in Paris. It was an experience that I wont forget in my life.
Such a generous and sincere person who wants to honor her brother, without narcissistically making it into an attention-seeking exercise that is all about herself, as most often do. Very touching. Jim Morrison is lucky to have such a sister.
Anne Morrison, you've done a good good deed.
Enjoy the feelings it must give you - ♥️
Anne is great - she’s beautiful. We truly appreciate the work she does and obviously the sharing of Jim’s work.
What a sweet sister. Jim would have appreciated you.
So nice sister! Jim had loved her! 🙏🙏🙏🎤🎸🎹🎶😍😍
Anne thank you for this book and continuing to keep the memory of your amazing brother Jim Morrison alive. I saw an interview your father gave about a decade ago and it was as equally moving.
Jim was an amazing poet, contentious and brave, with a stage presence and voice to equal any singer before or since. He achieved more in 27 years than most people do in many lifetimes. Regardless of his troubles he was a valiant spirit, a genuine truth seeker who continues to touch the hearts and minds of many people to this day. How many people can claim that 50 years after there premature passing?🙏❤️.
Your family no doubt must have been hurt and shocked by his sudden loss and it’s probably something you will never “totally get over”. I hope putting his works and words together has proved cathartic, healing and in a spiritual sense, brought you even closer together.
Lots of people can surmise, assume and think that they knew your brother but I love how protective you are of the memories and the man you knew him to be.
Jim only had one sister and I’m sure he’s proud of you right now Anne. Thank you.🙏❤️🎼.x
Reality he saw his brother and sister once each and never spoke to his parents last seven years of his life !!
She is her late brother 's double,except eyes 's colour....she and her brothers inherited their parents amazing and natural good looks
It’s hard to picture Jim being old so I don’t see the resemblance but I’m not sure what you mean about eye colour. They both have very blue eyes.
I didn’t know anything about his life when I used to listen to The Doors 🚪. My brother and I bought a lot of their albums when we were 14-15 around 1980-81. We would listen to the songs on an old 1965-66 stereo shaped like a classic furniture piece. I remember those nights so well. We would wait until our parents left the house at night and would listen to The Doors’ songs with all the lights off and just imagine ourselves in that time period. I would later discover where he was when he was inspired to write some of his songs like The End in particular areas in Venice Beach. I was going there in the early morning for several months recently, including areas where he and other band members were photographed. And I didn’t even know about this until recently. What a koinkidink! I was raised the first 3 years of my life near the Venice pier but in Mar Vista near Washington St. on Caswell. My parents lived on 4th and Rose when my mom was pregnant with me and my brother in 1965. My brother and I played in a band for a talent show in the 8th grade. We chose Light My Fire where I played guitar and my brother played bass. Oh what memories!
Thank you Anne, for sharing his beautiful work with the world. 📚📚📚♥️♥️♥️
Thankyou,thankyou! Anne so much for what you have done! As a child of the 60,s and now a parent I know some times it isn't t easy dealing with things unexpecded,like being the curator of your brothers legacy,you have done a tremendous job!thankyou again Anne,patric a Miller, a life long fan....
man, as a fan of the Doors I want to thank you for all the work and effort you put into compiling and uploading all this material.
Thank you Anne. I bought & Love the book. You’re brother was certainly a one off and I always pop in to pay my respects when I’m over in Paris for the Marathon every April. . .
Thank you Anne for this interview and for releasing more of Jim's work for us fans. Awesome.
Anne is such a pleasant person. Obviously, mom protected her from the Admiral. Could you imagine carrying the unfulfilled weight of being this guys sister. She seems at peace with the publishing of this book
Great job, Anne!
Anne , thank you for your hard work on helping get your brothers work that he probably would have done if he had more time. It's nice to hear some of your families stories. Jim's and the Doors new/ old work is harder to find as the years go by . Long time fan , Lena
Ann, thank you so much for your candor and filling us in on your brothers life. Gives new perspective on Jim's life. I loved Jim's musical prowess and rich voice. I can tel you loved your brother and your family so much. Thanks again. I am so happy you published his writing and honoured his outline of what Jim wanted in the book. I miss Jim being on the scene and remember his passing like it was yesterday. It is stillis shocking and sad and Pamela's passing a few years after Jim's passing, was sad as well.
Again, thank you so much.
There’s always sadness surrounding death because it’s so final, but it’s especially acute when it involves celebrities who entranced us with their gifts and had so much potential. We’re left feeling robbed of greatness and with ‘What if?’ The destructiveness of drugs really wasn’t understood in the ‘60s and early ‘70s. I doubt Jim and others like him had a death wish. If there’s one lesson we all could learn from such tragedies, it’d be to be your own hero, be your own lizard king, light your own fire. Write poetry, write a song, make a movie. Explore life’s big questions on your own and you’ll have less of a need to rely on celebrities to give you the answers.
Drug addictions are usually a sign of underlying issues and a way to numb out. I just wrote I really would've liked to hear more about Jim's relationship with his parents. I think that relationship is the most important in our lives and I really just don't read too much about his. I know his father was military but did he get a chance to really bond with his parents? Was Morrison drinking to party and it just got away from him or was there more to it?
@@brianwalsh1401 Search interview with Jim Morrison’s father on this platform. Jim’s parents didn’t get it, didn’t understand him, but he loved him. Classic generational divide between the WWII and Boomer generations. It’s a great interview.
My Aunt Sally died the same day as Jim,so it was a doubly sad day for me back in ‘71 😪
Jim Morrison IS a legend a poet and a great artist i think that he gave the best of himself and in his music young and beautiful forever that's the important rip jim
She’s a sweet and smart lady. I heard that Jim kept in touch with her and that she gave him moral support to pursue his dreams as a singer and poet.
Unlike Jim’s father who had a tin ear and actually told Jim that he had no talent for singing. What stupidity! His father discouraged him from singing. Jim is one of the greatest singers of all time and had one of the best voices. He could croon, sing blues and shout and he even sang ballads well!
So when I heard his father told him he couldn’t sing, I understood why he left home early. It doesn’t pay to live with a Naysayer. Jim proved his father wrong!
A similar thing happened to James Dean. His father didn’t support his acting or believe he should pursue an acting career either! Can you imagine? What stupidity!
But Anne Morrison was the only family sibling who believed in him and that means a lot!
Thanks Anne Morrison!
As a lifelong Doors fan I appreciate it!
🎸👏🏻😎
It is hard to know what will happen. I'm certain that Jim's father loved him. He thought like most parents that a career in rock music would go nowhere, like it usually did for most people. He was encouraging Jim to pursue a career with greater certainty and to help him succeed in life. Jim gave music a try and luck was on his side. Jim's father may have been right in a way. If it wasn't for rock stardom and the drug and alcohol abuse that often comes with it, Jim might still be alive today.
lol Jims dad told him he couldn't sing when he heard The Doors first album, long after he left home.
@@audiophileman7047 Yes, he’d be alive and completely unknown.
If he followed in his father’s footsteps, he’d probably have a secure job but no one outside his friends or family would care.
Now he has millions of followers and fans who listen to his music on a daily basis. So by following his dreams, it paid off big for him except for his self destruction.
But he is still remembered 50 years later. He has worldwide fame so it’s a trade off. Security and anonymity or risk and worldwide fame.
We wouldn’t be talking about him now if he chose security.
He chose risk and took his chances for a career in music instead.
I think he chose right but I’m not happy that he died so young. That didn’t have to happen.
The other three have lived long lives. Only he died young because he drank way too much.
So I disagree with your view point.
And his father telling him he couldn’t sing is just plain ridiculous! That’s just stupidity!
That’s like telling Picasso he can’t paint!🎨
@@dynjarren8355 thats what fathers are supposed to do. But imagine the family watching TV and their son and brother is on Ed Sullivan, thats literally what happened because they didnt know how huge the Doors were. Thats awesome
Anne’s great!
Cool trivia. My Maternal Grandfather graduated from Annapolis the same years as George S. Morrison! 1941!
I grow up during Jim life , still listen him all the time today . Thanks for putting the book out very nice to look thru and see the other Jim Morrison
Isn't she gorgeous. She is.
Being Born in 1965 -- I knew about "The Doors" & "Jim Morrison" at age 3 years old. I use to watch the 'The Doors' & 'Millie Small' & 'Mariska Veres' at "night time" on my parent's black & white back in 1967 and 1971. Then I discover "Jimi Hendrix" in 1970 at age 5. Right After Jimi Hendrix death took place. Jim Morrison' death took place at age 27 years old. Between Jim Morrison's & Jimi Hendrix's -- The Music I loved it all. Then came the discover of "Led Zeppelin" at age 7 years old in 1972...Now 58 years old in 2024. I really enjoy listening to Jim Morrison's Sister's Stories about their life together. I still really miss 'Jim Morrison' big time.
Remember reading Jim's father was the youngest admiral in the navy, would beat everyone on board in push-up competitions, was amongst the first there offshore start of Vietnam. Achievement was clearly there in the family, like two parallel but mirrored careers in the culture.
When Jim's death certificate was drafted it was addressed/sent to his father, something rather metaphysical about the whole thing.
Jims dad said the military notified him of his death.
@@sr2291That,I believe.
Thank You Anne for your interview &
sharing. Siblings grow up so close &
yet are often so completely different
from each other...I really love that you
presented Horse Latitudes to the kids.
That is Heavy & I think Jim would have been ecstatic about it.
One thing I've noticed over the years is that many fans will say, "The Doors
saved my life!" I actually feel that way,
too without TMI. Various Seers Psychics
& Literati types are convinced that Jim
saw himself as being a kind of cathartic
healer....shaman?...not just a simple
rocknroll pinup. Very spiritually
stealthy in a street smart way.
Anne, your a great sister
I feel sorry for Jim’s family. Lots of self righteous people comment on different Doors videos etc , they say Jim was a demon possessed,dirty evil person who was drunk and drugged all the time. All of that is mostly made up lies . Just listen to his band mates and family and friends. Jim did abuse alcohol pretty bad in his last few years, however most of his brief life he didn’t do drugs. He did acid true, but he accomplished a lot of work, writing and poetry. Etc.. He was It seemed a quiet, nice guy with immense talent. Great singer and lyricist. I try to pray for Jim’s soul and all souls of the departed.
Whenever you put yourself out to the public, you can be sure that some will crucify you...
....God Bless you and keep you in his Grace....as you pray.Amen 🐝🌈💫
There is a doors song where suddenly Jim says , "....Save us!, Jesus!-" i love that. I do want Jim to be saved. ❤️....john 3:16
Also of note ...a Led Zeppelin song where suddenly Robert plant says "..oh my Jesus! Oh my Jesus!" ...; I love that these artists DID pay homage to Jesus- no matter how or why, it's.done.
@@lindaclark9925 Well if his faith was in Christ when he died he is now with the LORD.
Thank u for this very interesting and I really liked this .Jim was to me .I think .he was very rich minded and really one of A kind of human being. U can not replace that human being a special type . And rare .and his words live on . And the doors music is classic and will never die . That's a fact. Five to one
I wish I could thank you personally Anne for this insight into your brother. He was an inspiration to many.
I'm surprised to hear that Jim Morrison and his dad wrote a song together. How interesting when you consider how their personalities were polar opposites
A lot of people don’t know that Jim co-wrote another song with his Dad, The End.
Anne Is So Charming
Thank u Anne !
loved the book 📖!
A beautifully congruent lady.❤
My copy arrived a couple of days ago. Thank You Anne, for doing this.
I kinda feel proud of the fact that I also grew up in Coronado, ca as a navy brat. My father was an officer on the uss kitty hawk. Whenever our fathers were out to see to sea, we navy kids use to hassle our mothers but when our fathers came back the fun was over Lol. My mother use to throw topper wear partys inviting all the navy wives over, but of course it was just an excuse to drink and talk about their husbands. Good days.
A great share with the world , thankyou from france . ritchie .
What a sweet lady!!
JM's father was involved in the Gulf of Tonkin, JM was brought up steeped in military black/psy ops. Dave McGowan's book 'Weird Scenes From The Canyon' details this aspect of the story.
right but he did not get along with his dad at all so he rejected that whole military authoritarian aspect. That rejection of authority was a large part of his psyche. So i don't see him as a proxy of the military industrial complex except in an accidental sense. Capisce?

@@errorsofmodernism9715 Admiral George Douglas Morrison was commander of the carrier division whose destroyers Maddox & Turner Joy reported being attacked by the North Vietnamese -which they were not- while they were intruding on North Vietnamese waters. The Navy & the CIA concluded the reported attacks were illusory, so Admiral Morrison is not responsible for LBJ having used the discredited initial reports to extract the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution from Congress.
@@errorsofmodernism9715 yeh i guess and i don´t feel it that way but
..the c.i.a secret police control and influence ran / runs deep and intrinsic

how exactly by who and who were played and controlled how deep and in what way idk we don´t know but i think always likew that the ones who were/are gone at some point wanted and stood on being less controlled and less be played yeh and then they gone that´s one of the regular modus operandi of ´´them´´ and is same comes from same

Hi Anne, Hi George. Thank you for sharing this interview.
Anne seems sweet. how nice thAT SHE HAs shared him how he was....
Yeah, she’s a gem.
Wow!
Very cool.
Well, ALRIGHT!
Looking forward to reading the book.
Peace on the earth.
Wow. Thanks for posting.
Anne is a fantastic keeper of Jim’s flame.
The MAN was BIGGER than the MYTH. 🎸🎹🥁😎
Well done to all involved esp the loving sister,l have the book and treasure it
Cool 😎
Dutch Guy thank u for your interesting research on The Doors and Jim we do appreciate it 😉.
It's very good that Anne waited so long. The SECOND COMING needed some time...t h a n k y o u Anne ,love and thank you !
She still has the Dangerous looks in her eyes as Jim had.
She is such a devoted sister . He would be so thankful that she stepped up and now has presented all his work on such a high level.
Thanx Annie , I knew Him and I recall the things he d said about you.
Sorry that you know the truth behind the whole sad story , yet the brilliant and wonderful things that he had tried to do.
I'm looking forward to one day meeting you.
You're the best sister for being so loyal
Always you're friend.
Vaya con Dios.

I bought the book as soon as found it. It is an amazing read and insight into Jim's creativity and how gifted he was with words. He was such a sensitive and kind soul who was gone too soon.
I Stayed At The Alta Cienega Motel in 2019 Awesome and Haunting
I wish they would re-publish a small book of An American Prayer - I love the poetry of that album.
I just ordered it, I didn't know this was out. I'm a huge Doors fan, and I have a poetry book of his.
Same! Just found out, ordering once I finish watching.
Its really kinda dissappointing just how much Jim Morrison disowned his family..for them to not even know he has a record out..it's hard to comprehend.
Anne was so cute and is today
My great uncle said he also saw Jim at the hungry i when Mort Sahl was performing, and always at City Lights Bookstore, just about 40 yards away.
I feel so honoured to be seen in Ray Manzarek's docu on the early DOORS (LOVE HER MADLY) with admiral Morrison's ACCUTRON watch on my right wrist.Jim sold it at UCLA filmschool for $ 35.- one day when he was broke.
How I got it will cost Germany a fortune once I finish my book ART AND (R)EVOLUTION..to be published in the US first ..
Huh?
@@ericstewart9742 Watch 19:10 in this video; ua-cam.com/video/eSkllKaA8dE/v-deo.html
Jim was a very mysterious character. Perhaps we'll never know what actually happened.
I am s u p e r h a p p y that Anne now takes care of Jim's estate.
I would love a small pocket version of An American Prayer
Fame is a crock, power is a crock, who the hell wants that? Freedom man, freedom, enough money just to be, yourself. No acting, no image, just be. Getting up when you like and doing what you like, dress how you like. If you have somebody who loves and supports you and doesn't want a piece of you? That's probably as good as it gets man. - Mickey Alvarez. (Jim Morrison)
27 journals, and Jim was a member of the 27 Club. Coincidence?
This was no coincidence. Once he wrote 27 journals and reached the age of 27 he decided it was the right time to die of a drugs overdose.
I think Jim's things --ALL of those treasures should be in the Smithsonian FOR EVERYONE to enjoy :).....WHY ARE THEY IN A SATORAGE FACILITY? His sister should call the Smithsonian! . LOVE JIM! Kimberly & Larry
Good work my friend . I've not seen this.
Glad to see you back sending us messages from Far Arden , 7 or 8 months it seems, I was thinking you may have got stuck in Tangie Town traffic all this time.
He is my favorite of all time ....
I wish this interview went into Jim Morrison's relationship with his parents. I think our back rounds are what make us tick and make us who we are especially our parental relationship. Why was he an alcoholic? Why did he distance himself from his family?
Jim was allegedly sexually abused as a child, but his mother called him a liar when he told her. That would explain a lot if true. Addiction, alcoholism, mental issues are usually traced back to child abuse of one form or another...
Jim sais he heard voices and the Alcohol made them stop.
@@pulsarlights2825
You are spreading lies again .
Jim Morrison was not just a member of the Doors - he WAS the Doors.
Very interesting! Thanks for posting this.

Wasn't there a big court fight between the Morrison family and Courson family over Jim's estate?

Yes, and ultimately the Morrison family was awarded 50% share of Jim's portion of the Doors' royalties. Meaning, they split it with the Courson family. Worth a lot of money over the years.
I've always loved the doors and music Jim was very well read most of his music is based on philosophy poetry or Greek mythology enjoy hearing anything about Jim Morrison the movie that Oliver Stone made was an unfair betrayal of him I believe it captured some of his being but not the essence of who he was as a human being the doors music will live forever and Jim Morrison spirit will always live
