After an incredible performance, fans riot and break the bands’ gear left on stage.

“THE NAKED LUNCH writer’s rhythmic pattern offers up a bleak and bruising reflection on Morrison’s cherished words—straight-faced and tight-lipped Burroughs offers no superfluous flourish other than the glint in his eye. It makes for a salty refrain from the sweet polished caramel of the backing band and is only enhanced by the acid-jazz breakbeat production, further complemented by samples of [Jim Morrison] himself.” -FAR OUT MAGAZINE

Today we remember literary legend William S. Burroughs. His writing style and tone were a major influence on Jim and The Doors. In 2000, William participated in a compilation album titled STONED IMMACULATE: THE MUSIC OF THE DOORS, reciting Jim’s poetry on the track "Is Everybody In?"

“I am interested in anything about revolt, disor “I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos- especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom – external revolt is a way to bring about internal freedom.” 
-Jim Morrison, on Huxley’s influence on The Doors

Happy birthday to legendary writer and philosopher, Aldous Huxley. It’s no mystery that The Doors decided on their name after Aldous’ famous novel THE DOORS OF PERCEPTION.

"I thank Chad [Smith] for the nod as one of his in "I thank Chad [Smith] for the nod as one of his influences, and I appreciate the company he put me in. In fact, a couple drummers he mentioned, Mitch Mitchell and Ringo, are also my influencers. Ringo's musicality, and Mitch's hands, are what impressed me. Chad is correct that if you hear a good drum lick, steal it! I put a Ginger Baker fill in "Hello, I Love You." I put Art Blakey snare drum press rolls on several Door's songs. Like Chad's comment about Bonham's musical drumming around Jimmy [Page's] guitar riffs, I would say that Smith's drumming on all of RHCP's songs is very musical.

@ledzeppelin without Bonham wouldn't happen, @thepolicebandofficial without Stewart [Copeland] wouldn't happen, @officialthewho without Keith [Moon] wouldn't happen (there were drummers after him, but it wasn't the same), the @chilipeppers without Chad, wouldn't happen (there were drummers before him, but when he came along, the Peppers coalesced). Drummers are the conductors of the ensemble." -@johndensmore
