Jim was destined to die young....otherwise he wouldn't have.

Jim is with us .

lol that's funny because he died of heart failure

@@anemaldemomusic8182 everyone dies of heart failure in the end…

When you die the pain is over

He’s a complete dumbass in that movie🤣

Movies either are either lies, or truth. It depends on the producer. And you have to have strong sense to decipher the difference. In most cases, they're looking to appease the common public to make $$$$. So in most cases, they're lies. Unless you watch the oldies. They thrived on breaking the societal barriers, along with real acting, and not just simulations of "acting". Guns guns sex, and more guns guns and sex.. blah!

Jim had a natural knack for rhythm and vocal pitch. No other way to explain how he was able to sing so well despite having no formal musical training. To me, that just means that he truly loved music. Everyone "listens" or "hears" music but not everyone truly loves it.

16 years later this is still the truth

So right❤

Mystical indeed

I’d say , it’s all there ,,, the Beatles are on a par with them

@@gladyssellar6408 love some Beatles as well

Except for the Gin Blossoms

@@kevinr.3542 🤣

Remember when we were in Africa?

oh stop it please

Under Rated...uhhhhh, NO he wasn’t

Anyone can hear the fact that Robbie Krieger is a real rawk gawd on guitar but it's true that Robbie Krieger's name is rarely among the 1st ones mentioned when ppl either give their rankings for guitarists or have hypothetical player vs player battles

And songwriters too

I think he was the weak link

Nonsense 🖤

lol

And always will be, nothing will ever even come CLOSE to the doors 🖤🖤🖤

Indeed. Very true!

Psychedelic blues? Idk man.

It is hard to believe

he existed he went to High School he was A in math and literature, his poetry teacher really approved of his genus. Best to ya.

The man was a human lightning ⚡️ bolt

If the rock and roll Hall of Fame they have a Cub scout uniform that he had when he was in Cub scouts

@@eyesurg100 & they all captured lightning in a bottle… of rum 😎 and then sprinkled lsd on it.

Shit man it's hard to say which is my favorite Doors release but this and Shaman's Blues, good god y'all...unleash the primal...

I'd have to agree!

It's dirty af, makes me want a cigarette. Oh yeah don't smoke kids.

the soft parade in general is underrated imo

@@stobbinsboy and people criticize the album for being "overproduced fluff", LoL. They were in top form!

TheZombiefiedNation epic!

Whats stupid the ending? Brilliant.

It's sad seeing how out of it and drunk he had to be to enjoy anything in this era

His substance abuse fueled the art...but at an untimely and unfortunate price

And his 'schtick' was the origin story he laid down later in 'Dawns Highway' ...he felt like and Ray often remarked that he was like the "musical shaman" of the group...and later became the inspiration for that story which was based on a supposed car accident he witnessed as a young boy recalled in Dawns Highway "indians scattered on dawns highway bleeding"...im sure the events over the years in conjunction with his various 'chemical inspirations' probably took the story on a life of its own in his brilliant mind..but the story goes that he felt like somehow the spirit of the Indian entered him and thats what gave him the shamanistic trance like stage presence....like I said probably exaggerated by his various 'chemical inspirations' but he put everything he had into this persona and its typical of Jim to resond with "why?" When the producer said "dont blow your voice" he felt it was always necessary to give people his all because he didnt believe he had a great voice and felt that since all the people came out to see them that the least he could do was give everything to his performance....that can only work for so long if you dont have a way to replenish especially as an artist, who like a sponge absorbs everything around them, and unfortunately his trip to paris was just far too late

Keep on Rocking 🤘 my friend, you wrote IT on the Point🆒☮️✌️😉🦎

Dale Eloph he’s a jazz drummer that’s why

All the drummers from that time were jazz drummers ginger baker, Jon bonham, bill ward and if they didnt think they were they were influenced by jazz rudiments. The collection of the doors as musician makes the music unique and timeless

@@leemidgley8619 Charlie Watts was also a jazz drummer

@Greg Gregory Bohnam is overated!!!

Carl Palmer.

He was freakin hot!

yep, an I'm a straight man! total man crush

He didn't look so good by 1970

@@MrAdriancooke I know he was strung out but he still looked pretty good to me lol 😆 I wish he hadn't of died so soon for he had great music.

@@cherylcarpenter4698 He put on a lot of weight because he drank so much and maybe the beard didn't suit him

ray was not underatted at all..all us doors fans know he was the maestro and the glue..each 1 contributes in there own skill to form the best band ever 2 grace this planet..ray tried vocals,but no1 could replace jimbo,and likewise with rays tickling of the ivories...long live the doors

Everyone knows what Ray did. Man was a genius!

Ray was the adult in the room

stobbinsboy seems to me the best rock is composed on piano keys, then adapted onto guitar frets.

@@tuddles71 plus he was musician of the year in 1968 i think? Always has to be one member of the band that leads to a degree....usually the most talented as is the case here.

well said 👏 but the doors were the best at least to me

As old as me but better looking.

Killian Vdb i was thinking about the same thing how can i go back in time and an idea of movie came along while scrolling down my phone to see some comments amazing

The Crystal Ship is being filled. Let’s not be late! Off to Ashbury n Haight!! Is everyone in? Let the time machine begin...

I want to tire machine so I can go pick up a 1958 Gibson Les Paul custom maybe a 1954 fender Stratocaster I don’t know I want to buy a bunch of vinyl records from the 1960s I need a Marantz stereo receiver from 1964 all tube thank you I also need a couple of Vox amplifiers please and don’t forget the guitars I also need some Paisley shirts from the 1960s and some beetle boots thank you very much oh I also need a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado convertible with every option on it💰💰💰💰💰💰

What a Fuckin tune pure doors.

Killian Vdb me2

He wasn’t just a solid and incredible drummer, he deeply understood and was an expert on each piece of the set.

Freak

Awesome beat for the generation!

The snare sounds so super loose in the beginning of the video, but I guess that’s how he liked it. Like it needs to be hit hard and with the rest of the band playing or you could hear that loose snare sound

Densmore is the driving spirit behind the art!

Yeah it makes you feel like you’re apart of the band and it adds more humanity to the music

This song takes me back to winter of 98. I was in high school and my uncle was battling cancer. We lost him by year's end. I remember I would just play this album and disappear in the music.

For me it is 2002. I lived with my girlfriend and we used to listen to this record all the time in our crappy basement apartment. We were so young!

For it was '05 in New Mexico high school system. Good time

when you're young summer days last for frikkin ever...

This

Ray clearly understood him. And so did Robbie and John.

yeah..sure,you think.people on budget do.

Its caIIed sIide & he's one of the best at it.

Most definitely on an ethereal mystic plane

very good!!

+The Foxy grandpa Nope glad I never went there.

Yeah I'd never heard anyone end a song like that before.

He lives there

1:37 😂😂😂

I played classical guitar for 40 years after hearing the intro on Spanish Caravan. I'm not sure if Robbie played the acoustic start. Robbie was very CREATIVE, rather than fast & flashy. I've always been awestruck by all four geniuses. Morrison sent me on an insane journey through incredible literature & poetry i.e. Nietzsche, NOB Love's Body & Ferenczi's Thalassa. Can one tie Jim to Norman O. Brown, Ferenczi, Jeff Epstein as child abduction/torture provider, Mossad and MKULTRA? I suspect so. Read this wiki bio on Ferenczi, there are parallels. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A1ndor_Ferenczi

There is an "official" doors channel on youtube which featrures guitar lessons with Robbie where he shows you how to play the songs. This is the Spanish Caravan one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y6modJmCzNCbd3U.html

as he is on every doors song,cmon .

"Do it, Robbie, do it" - Jim in Roadhouse Blues

His Guitar Pickups can Go From Smooth To Wildly Piercing, Pardon the song Pun.... Hypnotizing Just Like a "Song Of the Sirens" Overtone

The band members told him directly he was ruining his health with alcohol, and he admitted he knew it. But he sought no help---maybe too proud to seek it. Of course, back in the late 60s and early 70s these alcohol treatment programs didn't exist like today. Fifty years ago, the alcoholic often had to check into a state/county hospital or such which might also serve as the psychiatric center (the nut house). There was a stigma attached. Nevertheless, Morrison self destructed over a five year span. Creative geniuses often do, although self destruction is not a prerequisite.

Really

That was an excellent book.

Maybe he was just naturally like that

By the way, I discovered the song at the carnival was spanish caravan. And I ended up seeing the movie at the cinema.

It is the Jim growl and scream...not Kurt Cobain's. I am not a fan of Kurt, but, he would be the one imitating Jim, not the other way around.

it means when we were Tigers...... cat people .... Africa! runnin wild wild child .

LoL

cat people=== leopards !

That's the price they had to pay, when working with true genius. So funny, though! Jim was just awesome! I also have to say that John Densmore was the only guy that could play drums, for that band. And, oh yeah, I love the ending!

J.D. Soos Anyone from the era, could have done his job blindfolded
