mfiorellino Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 Of course he was a great poet but and the Doors were a great band. One time in a club a long time ago I heard a great remix of "Roadhouse Blues", if anybody out there knows where to get that I'd appreciate it.

jprutig Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 after my junior year of college, i transferred. it sucked for the most part, but one of the better memories i have from that time was getting into the doors and reading a lot of morrisons, shit.so, yeah, i agree. no doubt.i think a lot of it had t do with what he was putting in his body, but either way he did have quite a way with words------------------you can judge the quality and content of one's character by the way they treat someone that can do nothing for them...

aaronsalik Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 I couldn't agree with you more. He was truly one of the great American Poets, along with the likes of Bob Dylan and Arlo Guthrie.Great songwriting is a dying art. ------------------*************************I got to thank god for the music.************************* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharonregina Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 definetly a great poet. you should check out "an american prayer" i mean the spoken word album. real mellow, can hear the words and the music. in the movie, the scenes when he is speaking in the studio, that's what he is recording. great movie too ------------------"I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." -voltaire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vejita Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 Got ripped a few nights ago with mah roomies and watched The Doors again... yeah, you get the feeling that some peeps were simply ahead of their time.......And of course, it proves that Ollie Stone is a bonafide badass..... Natural Born Killers is another film that really digs into the darker side of things.-------------------=Vejita=-"Live through the week. Live for the weekend."
