The Doors L' America

A piece that identifies a group that didn't play genres but a genre of their own. Here they put to rest all the future underground dark and who knows what else.

On March 11 - it should be the 11th - Jim lands in Paris to meet Pamela. After a few days spent at the luxurious George V, Jim wants something quieter, more intimate, isolated. Rue de Beautreilles, at the home of Zozo Lariviere, a model - a stunning beauty - friend of Pam. Jim loves Le Marais, St Germain, that Rive Gauche. Le Deux Magots, especially Place des Vosges where he would sit and write or drink... or both. His health was not at its "best"...

As a "scholar" of Jim, particularly Parisian for obvious logistical and personal reasons, I have always been "amazed" by all the stories about this period of his life. Keep in mind that he stayed just over 100 days before dying, including trips to Morocco and Corsica.
If you read a bit, it seems he was around much longer...
The power of Morrison... or his death... and that of many who wanted to share their views. In reality, very few of us truly knew him... 3 or 4 people. Of course, everything he did is exaggerated - euphemism - and he naturally draws attention, let's say that.
