Just as they do, there is a fabulous blast of sound. After a minimum amount of tuning up, the house lights suddenly go on. You can hardly distinguish which is which. Slowly, the boys come out and in the darkness they start to “set up”. The lights are low and the stage is empty. It begins like this:Īt first, everything is serene- blue and green. So close your eyes, open your mind and take my hand while I try to lead you through “Jim Morrison’s magic land”. Hearing him sing and watching him perform- well, that’s really magic! I’ve been lucky enough to have this experience, and I’ll try (mind you, try) to describe just a little bit of what it’s like to you. He is so whole, so complete, so all himself and nobody or nothing else that just meeting him is an unforgettable experience. One word that can describe him is “total”. Jim Morrison is not like any other pop singer to appear on the scene: past, present or future. Fortunately, he was side-tracked into the world of music (which had always held great interest for him) and he soon found himself the lead singer of a group called the Doors. After attending Florida State University, he moved to California, where he studied film-making at UCLA.


Jim is six feet tall and has brown hair and haunting blue-grey eyes. He was born on December 8, 1943, in Melbourne, Fla.- which is near Cape Kennedy.

His full real name is James Douglas Morrison. So simple that they might mislead you into thinking that the young man whose picture you see on this page is – well, a lot like a lot of other young men. This was during the Summer of Love and represent the way to the hearts and minds of America’s “teeny-boppers” and “hippies.” This shows the kind of hype that ended up eating Jim’s mind and soul. Mellow, Mystical, and Mysterious MEET JIM MORRISON by Gloria Stavers This marks the third and final volume in my trilogy of tributes (see also my writings on Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix.) I was further blessed to have seen them each perform live in the late sixties around Chicago (their spirits are with me still.) I hope that you will find encouragement, enchantment and enlightenment from their lives and legacies as I have over the past 40 years!! Although I used to pride myself on looking, thinking, and acting like Jim I was blessed to not meet his same fate with booze. I also went down the alcohol road between 17 and 24 (1968-1973). He also tied us back to our natural roots and native American heritage. He tied our generation to that of the beat poets. Like many others, he had a major influence on my young life – s parking seeds of rebellion and spirituality that have burned throughout my life. I hope you will find lessons here and buy some of the MP3 files that are available from the live performances!! I have had a long random play list going!! It includes the awesome 2000 Tribute CD entitled “Stoned Immaculate.” Here you will find a carefully selected set of articles, pix, quotes, lyrics and more. His life was filled with c reativity and chaos along with conflicts and contradictions. In this article you will learn about the man, music and messages associated with one of the best Rock bands and political provocateurs we have witnessed. During his short life, Jim Morrison of the Doors was a role model to men and sex symbol for women.
