“Even within the context of the ‘60s, The Door

“Even within the context of the ‘60s, The Doors’ musical mix of jazz, blues and lysergic rock, sitting beneath @JimMorrison’s visionary lyrics, was decidedly avant-garde. ‘You could call us erotic politicians,’ Morrison once said… [The] Doors frontman was most certainly a poet. From the experimental musical and lyrical interplay of ‘Horse Latitudes’ to subversive hits ‘Light My Fire’ and epic statements such as ‘The End’ and ‘When The Music’s Over,’ Morrison brought a poet’s abandonment of the senses to his lyric-writing.” -UDISCOVER MUSIC

Spotlight on @JohnDensmore 🔦

Let’s take a look at some brief history of the iconic drummer for The Doors, Mr. John Densmore. John played an integral role in shaping the band's sound and legacy after joining the band in 1965. His jazz-influenced style helped to create the band's unique and eclectic sound (he often cites Elvin Jones, drummer from Coltrane’s band, as one of his biggest influences).

Densmore is also known for his activism, speaking out on issues such as climate change and indigenous rights. John has also penned a handful of books, including the latest best-seller THE SEEKERS.

John Densmore - rockstar, both on and off the stage.

Remembering legendary producer Paul Rothchild toda

Remembering legendary producer Paul Rothchild today (often referred to as “the fifth Door,” much like George Martin to The Beatles), who produced some of The Doors’ most cherished albums. Rothschild was also a key producer to other iconic artists, including @JanisJoplin.

“It was beautiful, it was one of the most beautiful moments I’ve ever had in a recording studio, that half hour when ‘The End’ was recorded. I was emotionally wrung.”
-Paul Rothchild on producing “The End”

Remembering Dr. Bobby Klein today, longtime photographer of Jim and The Doors, later becoming a Doctor of Psychology, and given the name “The Wizard of Tulum.”

“I read an interview Klein has given talking about his younger ‘happy hippie days’ as the official photographer for The Doors, living in Laurel Canyon next to Jim Morrison. They were around the same age, they hung out, smoked loads of hash and listened to records – in his own words they clicked intellectually.” -AMUSE/VICE NEWS
