Geniuses from decades before my time who broke down barriers, inspired, infuriated and shocked. Everyone in my school listened to them all. My life is about humour, passion, inspiration...

That was almost 30 years ago, and I have rarely listened to it since then, because the loss of my brother still crushes me.

      certainly darker. it resonated very deeply w/ those in nam who were in the belly of the beast in that era. the doors went were few would. they picked up the rock of the times & stared down onto what was underneath it.... I think its fair to say, the doors influenced zepplin & floyd a lot. wouldve loved to have heard syd barrets take on the doors. morrison actually liked floyd... the doors were the first (this was fully constructed and performed by the summer of '66, think about that) to create the long epic scale symbolist arrangements. cinematic & broad scape atmosphere & narrative. william blake & greek literature meets rock. unflinching in its lack of fear to look into the belly of the beast. inconsistent band moreso then zep, but when dialed in like here, they were on a peak few have ever ascented to.

      think about this. the summer before, he had NEVER had any musical experience. when the band was formed late summer in '65, morrison was film grad who had just spent a month or so in his own 40 days in the desert. highly intelligent & introspective idea guy, yet no musical experience... shows you though how the inner pace, pulse & creation of poetry has a musical underpinning in its cadence if you open up to it. that is basically what happen w/ him, along w/ all the delving he did of other writers like blake. of course having ray around was a gift. ray gets overlooked. he was a big brother to jim in that period & encouraged him, but also laid out the musical outline & structure for jim to take his ideas and scale them out into music. basically constructed the monkey bars. throw in robbies & johns jazz sensibilites & ambition & you truly had something special w/in a year at the whisky... what you heard here is a direct tap root back to the spring of '66. It still is amazing seamless wise when you think again, that jim had never sang or played an instrument & wasnt a music head either no more then 12 months back. savant.

      Check out the name Mary Werbelow. She was Jim's supposed first love. The song was supposedly about her. He lived in Clearwater, Florida with his grandparents for a couple of years after his high school graduation in Alexandria, Virginia.
      "Morrison went to live with his paternal grandparents in Clearwater,
      Florida, where he attended classes at St. Petersburg Junior College.
      In 1962, he transferred to Florida State University where he appeared
      in a school recruitment film."
      Unfortunately the house of his grandparents was torn down years ago but all the doors were kept by a painter and sold online with art of Morrison.

    In 1966 my father was a college student at UCLA and was part of the “hippie” counterculture. He and his friends would often go to see shows, and the Doors were very popular at this time as a great band to go see, they were totally unique. This was before they had a record deal. One night in August of ‘66 my father and some of his friends went to see the Doors and Love (another great band) at the Whiskey-A-Go Go. Lots of people in the crowd were openly smoking pot, and who knows how many had taken LSD. My father was so blown away by the Doors that it blew his mind without him being stoned. “The End” was the last song they did, and the crowd all sat frozen and stared at Jim because it was just so incredible that you couldn’t move. And yes, Jim Morrison was even better looking in person.

    • @kelvinkloud
      @kelvinkloud 3 года назад

      good ear. Agree. its vastly underrated controlled but very emotive singing. like sintra in his prime in the early 50's, but an obviously much different genre. but the control and mesh w/ the vibe, melody & musicians is similar.... morrison was a paradox. freak savant talent but wreckless as they come. think about this Trevor, this song was in complete form by summer of '66. morrison was only 22. he hadnt done any music of any kind, instrument, singing or songwriting for the first 21.5 years of his freaking life! When you consider the power & scope of this song, that is mindblowing that such a novice could pull this off singing wise, let alone creation wise. like I said, a rarified savant.... heres the only theory that makes sense to me. he was very intelligent & soaked up literature for a good 5 years pretty heavily. furthermore, he wrote, including poetry. all of that forced his mind to not only understand & sculpt structure to cadence, but it also forced his mind to expand into a creative realm of new ideas. though not an introvert persay, he nevertheless had the ability to lock into his own vision & thoughts. right after college he did this, plus he was experimenting w/ mind expansion. he also had ray who knew how to draw out the arrangement scape & let jim move w/in that frameup w/ improvisation encouraged. it all converged for internal pulse & thought to meet poetic cadence & musical tone. the alchemy of that is here. the words & voice flow directly w/ the river of sound.... inconsistent, no doubt. but wow, when dialed in, morrison was a once in generation freak talent.

      how do you compare them to all the other bands you saw live in that great era? .... so many years after morrison's death, there is a legend built up around him. I was barely alive when he was performing. I'm interested to hear from people who did indeed see them live to see if that aura was really palpable. was the buzz around this guy the same like it was 10 years after his death when they resurged interest wise? did he stand out to you in a stark way vs other talents you saw then? ... any further takes appreciated.

I’m surprised the owner of the label didn’t do more to get the guy to put the brakes on and find more grounding. The doors made that label. The booze really undermined a great talent and band. Inconsistent. When dialed in arguably America’s greatest band in a crucial period of rock. When off, a train wreck.

      its overplayed though imo. hendrix for ex was mainly off drugs his last year or so performing wise. morrison was much more a boozer... I think what you have w/ some of these artist, like morrison, is just very creative artistically bent individuals. they threw their heart & sweat into creation. the creativity was an experience. plus morrison was highly intelligent & very well read. he understood blake symbolism, joseph conrad, the ancient greeks & abstract art. what sounds trippy to many people to him was carefully placed symbolist meaning... not saying the guy didnt do drugs & not saying it didnt have an influence. I'm just saying it wasnt the drugs. morrison could write stuff like this on or off it.

      agree... I think he had a real future in screenplay writing & some acting and direction... the 70's anti hero decade in film was very creative & spawned by peers he knew at ucla. like bowie, morrison was a very large scape, conceptual thinker. its why his best lyrics have a cinematic epic affect. its too disjointed but his film project has some interesting moments in it. a healthy morrison by '72 couldve really flexed his muscles more behind the scenes in the film industry imo. think artist like michael mann, copolla, lucas, marty S etc. jims ideas wouldve found fertile ground.

    The end of great long songs like this because people with Tik Tok attention spans just can’t hang. This song was done live obviously. You couldn’t do a song with tempo changes like this today because producers want everything to be uniform and nailed to an electronic grid which would ruin the song. It is indeed the end of old school production and those drum sounds and parts were totally improvised because Densmore came from a jazz background. His performance was just phenomenal and conveyed so much emotion. Definitely one of their best, but they have a lot of great songs. You guys should do Riders On The Storm as well, thanks and good reaction.

    Yeah good to see this. You guys were impacted by The End. The really incredible thing is that it fit so well in Apocalypse Now. That movie was made many years after this song was recorded but it sounds like Jim Morrison is describing the feeling and the insane reality of Vietnam during the war, especially in the first couple of verses. " desperately in need of some stranger's hand/ in a desperate land" and then "lost in a Roman wilderness of pain/ and all the children are insane". There were Vietnamese children who would give their lives in suicide bombings to kill American soldiers. Whoever made that soundtrack choice was brilliant. This song is absolutely brilliant. It is haunting and creepy and engaging as hell. All the instruments were played so well, so cohesive. John Densmore's drumming here is mesmerizing and so is Manzarek's organ playing. And Robbie Krieger's guitar is so cool, the notes he plays, sometimes adding that creepy insane vibe. Jim Morrison is an utterly unique rock singer, poet, musician. Very psychedelic.

      morrison knew copolla in college. they were classmates at ucla as film grads. can you imagine being in class w/ the 2 of them? there are interviews were copolla talks about that and his memories of morrison. if jim had lived I do think there was a really good shot he wouldve drifted more heavily into films by the early 70's. screen writing, direction, maybe some acting. the era wouldve been a good fit for him theme wise.... copolla went out on a limb to get dennis hopper in the movie. at this point in his life hopper was bordering on insanity & had serious drug issues. its a role morrison couldve actually played well & I wouldnt see copolla having a problem putting him into the film. I could see morrison playing sheens part too. he wouldnt have been old enough though for brandos part, but he couldve gotten into the character. morrison could act. his indep film though disconnected has some decent moments. he had a presence on film. his acting in promo film for unknown soldier is very good. But I think his real gift wouldve been collaboration from the writing end via screenplay or direction.
