Real Los Angeles rock and roll, The Doors. Recently I have been annoyed listening to bands that nobody has heard of or will hear of. To say the least I feel out of “it” whatever “it” is. What better way to get out of a rut than to listen to classic rock. Arguably some of the best rock. The Doors were revolutionary in that they brought the rock and roll life style of sex, drugs, and rock and roll to the masses. What I really mean by that is Jim Morrison brought the rock and roll lifestyle to the people. The band didn’t take shit from anybody and did whatever they wanted in their day. They became a band in 1965 right in the middle of the 60’s when conservatives and hippies were at an all out war with each other. In some ways I want to say the hippies won because of The Doors and other bands of that time.

Today I’m enjoying The Doors, and I think you should aswell. Hey, pick up The Doors DVD and enjoy some more for yourself. Val Kilmer did an amazing job of personifying Jim Morisson; he even sung himself instead of lip syncing.

To classic American rock and roll, to The Doors.
