Haven't been around here much either (am I the only one getting connection time outs on this new board??).
Three hours for magic is alright and quite rare, although in my opinion the parts with Jim's poetry are way off speedwise and his voice is too high.
Overall it is okay, there are bits in of Jim's friends (including Babe) talking that come from the interview tapes Frank Lisciandro made to compile
his book Feast of Friends.

Actually, "Three Hours For Magic" was a radio program put together in conjunction with the release of Frank's book, "An Hour For Magic," back in 1982, featuring interviews with Frank, Bill Siddons, Kathy Lisciandro, Cheri Siddons, Babe Hill, and Pam's father (the late Corky Courson), among others.
None of these interviews, including the very brief Babe Hill snippet, was used for Frank's 1991 book, "Morrison: Feast Of Friends," which was the result of new and original interviews done at the time....about 10 years after the "Three Hours For Magic" radio program.

there are also other parts. frank said during his Exhibition of photos last summer in piacenza that he hates like his surname is pronounced in usa.it is a italian surname you should pronounce exactly like you read.like doors word for instance, so his last name should be pronounced lisciandro..not li_s_iandro..the complete name is frank john lisciandro.part 5 at 8:52 to 9:54 it is babe speaking there are also frank and Kathy.nice.
91 interview with steven Wheeler
LISCIANDRO: Sugerman's book offended those who knew Morrison best, according to Lisciandro. "Many of Jim's closest friends find that book very objectionable. I call it 'Nothing Here But Lots Of Lies,' because it's full of bullshit. You have to realize that despite what he says, Danny Sugerman did not know Jim Morrison. If you think that a fourteen-year-old can go in a bar and drink with someone, you're crazy. That never happened.
"I know for a fact that Jim did not like Danny," he goes on to say. "Jim told me on numerous occasions that Danny was a nuisance. But because Jim was a nice guy, he was kind enough to give Danny a few minutes of his time. Danny was always pestering Jim. So those stories of Danny having dinner or doing his homework at Jim and Pamela's apartment are hilariously ridiculous. That never happened."
BAM 7th March 1981
PAUL ROTCHILD : Danny Sugarman (co-author of the book) is a fan of The Doors who took Jerry Hopkins' original manuscript and destroyed it. Danny didn't interview me. Jerry did. Danny then changed a lot of my interview to hearsay that other people did. I'm furious about that book and so is everyone else I've talked to who is quoted in it. It's a great piece of sensationalism, very little of which holds to historical fact. The general shape of it is correct, but Jim is sensationalized rather spectacularly, and the best parts of Morrison are not there. The people who really helped The Doors' career are treated in a very cavalier manner, and the only people who come off well in my opinion are the groupies and syocpants who were hanging around the band and close to Danny Sugarman who was a groupie himself".
There's only one thing in the whole process that bothers me, and that is Danny Sugarman's book. If Jim Morrison were alive today, he'd be livid about that book. Not because of the truth it tells, but because of the lies it maintains. Like Sugarman's trying to keep going the myth that Jim might still be alive! That is pure, total, unmitigated bullshit. If Danny had sat there where your sitting and listened to Pam after she came back from Paris, he wouldn't be trying to perpetuate this myth - and that's what it is.

A friend of mine who's a big vinyl collector found a copy of this show on vinyl in a music store in great condition with the original cue sheets for $40. A few years later he had to sell off a lot of his collection and was heartbroken about giving this up, but he made sure it went to a fellow Doors fan, but not without making a digital copy of it of course. It's a great listen.
