There were those, in short, who felt that society, or at least individual consciousness, could be changed through rock 'n' roll, both its performance and its ethics.

Before you slip into unconsciousness.... Listen to the mystifying lyrics of Jim Morrison and the awesome music of The Doors!!! They are one of the greatest bands to come out of the 60s, led by the tortured Jim Morrison, who left behind his poems, drugs, and screaming girls when he died mysteriously in 1971. The unforgettable guitarist, Robby Krieger, made the music what it is, but to this day Jim is the center of attention. And with good reason, even though Krieger penned the song that catapulted them to the top, "Light my Fire." For Morrison was a poet. He lived and thought like those poets he admired and studied. He believed that he had within him the soul of an Indian shaman, and he believed that "I am the Lizard King... I can do anything," as he declares at the end of "Not To Touch The Earth," part of his lengthy stage production, the Celebration of the Lizard. Rumors still circulate regarding his sudden death in Paris. One thing is certain, and proven by their albums, The Doors, Strange Days, Waiting for the Sun, Morrison Hotel, L.A. Woman, Absolutely Live, Alive She Cried, American Prayer, and even post-Morrison releases like Other Voices: THE DOORS RULE!!!
