James Douglas Morrison (December 8, 1943 - July 3, 1971) was an American singer, poet and songwriter who was the lead vocalist of the rock band the Doors. Due to his wild personality, poetic lyrics, distinctive voice, unpredictable and erratic performances, and the dramatic circumstances surrounding his life and early death, Morrison is regarded by music critics and fans as one of the most iconic and influential frontmen in rock history. Since his death, his fame has endured as one of popular culture's most rebellious and oft-displayed icons, representing the generation gap and youth counterculture.
Together with pianist Ray Manzarek, Morrison co-founded the Doors in 1965 in Venice, California. The group spent two years in obscurity until shooting to prominence with their number-one single in the United States, "Light My Fire", taken from their self-titled debut album. Morrison recorded a total of six studio albums with the Doors, all of which sold well and received critical acclaim. Morrison was well known for improvising spoken word poetry passages while the band played live. Manzarek said Morrison "embodied hippie counterculture rebellion".
Morrison developed an alcohol dependency throughout the band's career, which at times affected his performances on stage. In 1971, Morrison died unexpectedly in Paris at the age of 27, amid conflicting witness reports. His premature death made him a member of the infamous 27 club. Since no autopsy was performed, the cause of Morrison's death remains disputed. Although the Doors recorded two more albums after Morrison died, his death severely affected the band's fortunes, and they split up two years later. In 2011, a Rolling Stone readers' pick placed Jim Morrison in fifth place of the magazine's "Best Lead Singers of All Time". In another Rolling Stone list, entitled "The 100 Greatest Singers of All Time", he was ranked 47th. He was also ranked number 22 on Classic Rock magazine's "50 Greatest Singers in Rock". In 1993, Morrison was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Doors.

That mirror is gorgeous !!

[@TheDutchGuy]

Someone needs to reproduce it... That said, I believe we need to get hold on the property again to recreate the complete shop and office, people could skip Graceland to go to the better option; Themis. We could contact Lee Dunholter for the interior design, he is still around and he knew what Themis looked like.. ;)

[@ernestintownandjackintheco1024]

Wow, that is some granular research. Takes it to a whole other level!

[@errorsofmodernism9715]

I guess Sage, like Jim, was having his own Jack Kerouac moment

[@marcelrotterdam7937]

This awesome what a great find

[@missblink4611]

Did they find sage? That’s the question… also 200$ in 1970 I think was a pretty good reward

[@TheDutchGuy]

They probably did, as it's known that Pamela's sister took care of Sage when they left for Paris.

The $200 reward in 1970 would be equivalent to Almost $1500 today. That probably got some attention

Hi, I know that Pam and Jim brought clothes from Morocco to sell them in the boutique. Do you have any info that can confirm that, please?

[@TheDutchGuy]

They did travel to Morocco, and they probably bought inventory for Themis. But it's hard to confirm, I did some deeper searches on Themis, but there is nothing out there (other than stories and some items) on the inventory, which makes it difficult to tell or confirm if they actually bought inventory in Morocco. The style was quite popular then, and there were more sellers, which could mean that there was a wholesaler/importer active in the area.. If you ask me, I think Themis was partial filled with clothing imported by Pamela, and partial bought from a wholesaler.

@@TheDutchGuy Hello, There are pictures of them (Jim and Pam with their friends) wearing Moroccan attires as an ad for the boutique but I wanted to know if there's anything written that confirms that. Thank you for your response.

@@TheDutchGuy Thank you so much for the info. I read somewhere that the vest Jim was wearing in the Hollywood Bowl concert was one of the item Pam bought from Morocco.

[@TheDutchGuy]

Jim wearing a vest bought by Pam in Morocco is very possible, but I really don't know that much about the clothes they had, except for his concho belt and leathers.. Alix Chavasse and her friends know a lot more on that subject, If you search google for "Alix Chavasse Pamela Courson" you will find her..
