  • On July 3rd, 2011, people from all over the world gathered together in Paris, France to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Jim Morrison's passing. Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger of The Doors paid their respects along with many others on a beautiful day at Pere Lachaise Cemetery and capped off the day with a concert at The Bataclan in downtown Paris that night.

    I was there in October 1989. Walking into the Perelachaise is like walking into 19th century. The place was shrouded in fog which gave it an eerie air. The cemetery is huge. Literally a different world. There were a few people huddled around the shrine. The smell of hash wafted in the air. All I remember is a young girl sitting there with a world-weary air. Probably stoned and probably pondering the mystery of life/death. I will never know who she was or where she came from. Maybe she is a mom somewhere with her kids now grown up. I cannot know. This is the mystery of life. But here I was at the grave of the doomed rock star/poet of the 1960's. Here he lay this Rimbaud of the music world once an unfettered spirit who became a modern romantic figure. Eventually his life was subdued by the tyranny of reality which is unforgiving to those who dont conform or accept its diktats. But his spirit and his music still survive after all those years with its siren call 🏛🎸🎭

    They made a mistake not picking up this guy in the 70's. I met this guy back then and he was a dead ringer for Morrison and sounded like him. Journey picked up that Asian guy and they did great. And he had the spirit too. Wild Child was not a temp thing....This guy was into it. I doubt if he could come out with the Poetry like Morrison, but we have to remember that Krieger was writing half the songs and created a lot of Doors hits. Who knows what this guy could have done, and we will never know. I am not saying Morrison could be replaced....but maybe the next best thing. LOL I would have enjoyed the illusion.
