_LIVE FAST, DIE YOUNG AND LEAVE A BLOATED CORPSE!_

[@Xcris_crosX]

Jim Morrison used a line from a conversation with Alice Cooper in the classic Doors track ‘Roadhouse Blues'. “We were sitting there drinking and Jim comes in and he flops down,” says Cooper on his breakfast show on Planet Rock radio. “I said that I had got up this morning and got myself a beer and while we’re talking he just writes that down. So they go in and they’re doing the song and the next thing I hear is ‘Woke up this morning and I got myself a beer’ and I went ‘I just said that a second ago!’”

I’d also add to all those genres swing music from the 40’s big band era can be seen as one of many influences in 50’s and beyond rock and roll as well. Bill Haley and the Comets Rock Around the Clock being a prime example. Also a lot of progressive rock like Genesis and Yes and ELP etc evolved from classical music as well.

Great reaction as always. My Mom gave me a 12 page list front & back of all the concerts she has been to in her life. She was a gypsy flowerchild all her life, for real! I texted her & asked about The Doors. Here's what she said: "One of the best shows was The Doors, and the police came to the show. They lined the stage & police chief waited in wings for "lyrics". It was a time of strict decency. Jim Morrison lyrics were so unusual to us kids. We had never been exposed to someone quite like him---And he was like 19 or 20 a college drop out. He had a girlfriend named Pam who he introduced during the show. A hippie type girl. Rich if I remember as her clothes were amazing." Talk to your parents, folks! 💕

Here's a fun one - Janice Joplin: "Yep you sure would have had fun. But a lot of them weren't famous till much later. They just showed up at each others shows for the exposure, and so they could play I do remember Janis really well because I had recently been to the circus and she reminded me of the roadies She had on a like tapestry type tunic over a shirt with fringe. It was heavy & hot and she had a hat to start with. Her hair was oily and wild and her voice was like she had screamed all night and then wanted to sing. She was unusual & very talented."

An actual roadhouse inspired this song called The Topanga Corral, a windowless nightclub in Topanga Canyon, California, where Jim Morrison lived. The roadhouse venue was on a winding road, so you actually did have to keep your hands on the wheel.

The Doors have a pretty good discography considering the relatively brief time they were together. They definitely utilized the psychedelic sounds of their time as well as blues, rock, and also incorporated occasional strings/brass elements. Their general sound was a strong influence on early post punk/goth music later on in bands such as Joy Division, Echo and the Bunnymen, and Siouxsie and the Banshees.

When The Doors started out in 1966-67, Jim Morrison was thin and in his "Young Lion" phase where the women just couldn't get enough of him. Over the next several years he drank a lot, got fat, and grew a beard. His health undoubtedly suffered, but his voice got rougher and, in my opinion, cooler-sounding. Another great reaction, gentlemen.

[@arizrich]

The blues had a child and they named it rock and roll! You know, a big difference in music between then and now is that artists back then were experimenting with sound more than artists do today. Both from album to album and individual songs on each album. I don't see that with today's artists. There just aren't surprises. I respect Taylor Swift for how wildly popular she is with her fans, she obviously connects with them. But she's also so predictable that people are already doing "Her song about breaking up with her football player friend" now. Any current pop artist has a sound and a formula that they stick to. No surprising their audiences. And I don't mean to pick on Taylor, she does write her own songs and performs them well. But everyone knows what to expect, we never did back then.

[@lovestreet2675]

Love Jim and the Doors so much! ❤ This one makes me a little sad because by the time they recorded this album, Jim had abused his body so badly with drugs and even moreso ALCOHOL, he looked and sounded much older than his 20s. You could tell he was drunk in this song too. But he was high or drunk through most of his performances. Alcohol is what got him in the end from what I understand. It was brutal. You may want to google 'The Story Behind Roadhouse Blues'. It explains Jim's alcoholism while recording this album.

[@WitchessJae]

I didn't listen to anything but the Doors for a few years after I discovered them. I can always tell when Jim's drunk on a song. Alot of his songs I bet he doesn't even remember being in the studio for 😅

[@kevincaulder20]

The music from this alum, MORRISON HOTEL and the next one, L.A.WOMAN, are a result if the Doors being redefined after the incident in Miami. Jim decided to move on from their earlier identity and remake the band into a more blues driven sound. The other members were had also grown up with a love for the blues and you will find them in territory that would define them until the end of their run. Having barely survived the Miami debacle, there was a great deal of debt and contracts to payoff. So, they went to work and produced 5 albums in just over 2 years. But after L.A. WOMAN, Jim would leave for Paris. The contracts were finished. And he was looking to make time for hus poetry and escape the stardom he felt rapped by. Plus, the trial was still ongoing in Miami, where he faced jail time for the indecency charges that were pending. But he would never return. A few months later, in July of 1961, he would die in a bathtub in Paris. It has been noted that he died 3 years to the day that his hero, Brian Jones, founding member of the Rolling Stones wad found dead at the bottom of a swimming pool. This decapitated the American rock movement of its 3 biggest stars. And in the early 7o's, the period that followed was much calmer as a result. The soft rock and country rock periods period of the singer-songwriter was born here. With Morrison's extinction, the 27 club was born. And continues to grow. Robert Johnson, a blues player from the early 2oth century, was the first. Eric Clapton and others honor his music. Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, are all part of the group. Their lives were brief, but their impact is felt today. R.I.P. to the all for the musical postcards that still reach us today. You guys should listen to THE CHANGLING and 5 to 1 by the Doors next. Enjoy

I really enjoy your reactions. Very to the point and succinct. And I love that you spread far and wide when it comes to artists and genres. Just before this I watched your reaction video to "Don't Fear The Reaper". I noticed that you had reacted to "Hate" by Band Maid. It is a great track, especially from their 10 Year Anniversary Finale Concert last November. Two of their other songs, which are instrumentals, I feel you would enjoy reacting to. The first is the Live Official Video of "Onset" and the second is the MV for "From Now On". They are both superbly composed and performed and remind me of all the great instrumental groups of the early 1960's like The Ventures, The Rip Chords, The Tornados, The Bar-Kays and from England, The Shadows. Another great group from Japan that has a strong blues rock feel is Glim Spanky. They are made up of composer/vocalist/guitarist Remi Matsuo and guitarist Hiroki Kamemoto. They use session musicians for their live appearances and studio work. Remi's voice is like a combination of Janis Joplin, Grace Slick and Susanna Hoffs, with a lot of grit. The two songs I would suggest are the video of "Circle of Time" from their 2020 KZbin Live Concert, and the live studio video of "Breaking Down Blues". It's well worth the time invested to check them out. Thanks again for your reactions.
