Jim Morrison

I have been a huge fan of The Doors and Jim Morrison since I was 14. There is something about the lead singer that sets him apart from everyone else who has proceeded him.

Born in Clearwater California on the 8th December 1943, James Douglas Morrison it seemed was destined for a life of the extraordinary. And that is what he got. From poetry to film making, sleeping on roof tops to being too shy to sing facing an audience, Jim's life tripped fantastically between the light and the dark.Love and Death.

And next to him was his love, Pamela Courson, who people refer to as Jim's "long suffering girlfriend". She was enchanted by Jim as were many. Then locked inside his world unable to find escape or the reason to wish for it.

It was as if his poetry came to life. He lived his words. Not always a good thing. His love of alcohol and drugs led him on a many beautiful trail of fantasy, but sadly leading in the end, only to his own destruction.
