- Chrome Dreams Production- 823564011325- 400 grn
L.A.'s answer to the British Invasion, the Doors burned brightly, burned out and left behind a clouded legacy. The continued fascination with the band has everything to do with Jim Morrison, of course, the charismatic singer who died young. Talented, inconsistent and a raging alcoholic, Morrison intentionally tried to channel the contradictory energies of the era and became its shaman stud. In this CD has expertly woven together a narrative from interviews with the band members—Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore—as well as Morrison's family and closest friends. Collaboration created the Doors' sound and songs, and the biographies of each musician bring perspective to the more famous Morrison story. While there are no shocking revelations, it's useful to discover just how talented Morrison's band mates were in an age of three-chord wonders. Now old-aged, the remaining Doors are clearheaded about their youthful extravagances and don't waste time with character assassination. Drug use is discussed openly, although Morrison's death is left needlessly vague (when a 27-year-old dies with only his junkie girlfriend, it's a good bet that heroin was involved). For the most part, though, this understated work further elucidates this iconic band. From 1966 on, the Doors established themselves as a wildly popular and influential act. They eventually burned out amid charges of indecent exposure on stage and increasingly spotty performance by singer-lyricist Jim Morrison. Introducing imagery strongly influenced by shamanism and psychedelia, the short-lived Morrison attracted a cultish fandom that regarded him as a sort of electric Rimbaud. The legend is on display again in this -illustration-heavy montage of interviews with band members, interested observers, and coconspirators. Keyboardist-cofounder Ray Manzarek observes that the group was "the Doors . . . [n]ever 'Jim Morrison and the Doors,'" which may be accurate as far as billing goes but was never true for the fans. Morrison, who remains the model for tragic rock star as romantic poet, was central to the band's appeal and is the main attraction here. A must for the rock shelves, the book may be the last word on Morrison. Nah, there'll be more. As Rolling Stone Magazine said so eloquently decades ago, "HE'S HOT, HE'S SEXY, HE'S DEAD." And the pictures live on. In spite of the death of Jim Morrison more than 50 years ago, interest in the music and lives of the Doors remains strong. This audio biography presents the complete and unauthorized audiobiography of one of the most influential and controversial rock bands of the 1960s. This history charts the lives and work of the quartet, from their earliest days, through their rise to fame and enormous success, to the death of Morrison in Paris and the subsequent demise of the band. This is a spoken word product and contains no original music by the artist. It is not authorized by the artist, their record company or management. There's no music on this disc. It's mainly a British narrator talking all through the disc. The band members make their own comments throughout the discs' 60-minute length. An excellent biography for rock history buffs!
