I've been hooked on The Doors for a month now - I bought a CD for the car - I never buy CD's!!! I bought a book and now I just ordered a documentary online today! My obsession with The Doors started when we went to Prince Edward Island a few weeks ago, we saw a live production of
Classic Albums Live - The Doors, LA Woman. I didn't really know a whole lot about the band, my husband knew more than me, I knew that "Light My Fire" was a big hit song for them and that's about it. Classic Albums Live takes classic albums and creates them live on stage, note for note, cut for cut - it's not a cover band, it's live music done by professional artists that play across Canada and the United States - if you ever see a production offered and it's a band you enjoy, you really should buy a ticket.
So, now I've read the book on Jim Morrison and The Doors - the band was formed in 1965 and recorded up until 1971 - after reading the book, it's hard to imagine how they even recorded so many great songs and actually had six albums - it was a time of excessive drugs and alcohol - Jim Morrison died in Paris in 1971 - at age 27.
