"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

I liked the Doors in middle school and high school. I do not care for them now. But I do like Peace Frog. Ray Manzerek produced 4 great X albums. I give him credit for that and X credit for seeing something in the doors that I don't see.

I used to get compared to him as well... not anymore, thank god.

Here is another Doors story. When I was visiting Paris, I went to Pere Lachaise to see Balzac and Proust's graves. Two different people asked me which way to Jim Morrison's grave as if I would know based on my looks. I seriously considered cutting my hair, shaving and wearing a suit everyday just to avoid further confusion in that direction.

Drunken Creep:

Sometimes people are rockers and writers, Nick Cave, Patti, I read Violent J's autobiography this year and he's a solid rocker and writer too, believe it or not!

It's nice to imagine that Jim Morrison's best writing and music were still ahead of him.

i think the first doors album is mostly very good; and the la woman album too. in-between were 2 mostly good albums, a mostly terrible album and a slightly less terrible album.

In 1981, when I was 22, a friend and I made the pilgrimage to Pere Lachaise cemetary for the 10th anniversary of Jim Morrison's demise. Then I started reading Proust. Now I just watch wrestling on tv.
