@QueenOfTheHighway "no one here gets out alive" it's a GREAT book I just finished it, now I'm reading a biography on jimi Hendrix called "a room full of mirrors" it's really good too

Oohhhh. Yeah I know that book. It's referred to by Jim's friends and family as "nothing here but lots of lies." Makes Jim out to be an insensitive, womanizing a**hole :/ I'd recommend "Break On Through" by James Riordan, "Riders On The Storm" by John Densmore (who by the way is incredibly nice) or the best option "This is the End my Only Friend" by Judy Huddleston (one of Jim's girlfriends.) Anything else is probably not true. The best way I learned about Jim is from going on The Doors forums and speaking to people who knew him. They have some great stories that aren't published and that show a side of him the biographies don't (the funny, lighthearted, easy going, generous side.) Also, listening to his interviews and reading his poetry is another great way to know what he was really like. (Sorry I get incredibly passionate about this if you couldn't tell. It's a good thing you didn't mention the Oliver Stone movie though or I'd be going on for days, haha.)

@QueenOfTheHighway thanks :) I can't look at him as anything else, he was a rock star but more of a poet. I read his work and think of nothing but poetry. I just finished one of his biographys and it made me look at Jim in a completely different way
QueenOfTheHighway
Yes exactly! He was much more of a poet than a rockstar, and that's how he wanted it :) Which biography did you read, if I may ask? There are quite a bit that are absolute bologna but a few that are pretty reliable.
QueenOfTheHighway
I love that you not only acknowledge Jim as a poet but that he's your favorite. (Mine too, obviously.)
