 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

Now, finally the Doors fans who said (in the past) they are not Doors fans will chime in.
BTW, I was a Doors fan from day one, and will remain one......
Until.......
The End

I remember listening to Radio Luxemborg in bed late at night on a earphone. Riders on the Storm - Jim Morrisons vocals perfectly set off by Ray's electric piano. RIP

Bummer, the fourth song I ever sang in my life was "Love Her Madly".
He and Jim are probably working on some new songwriting as we speak. Rest In Peace.

Sigh.
Another one bites the dust. It's been a bad year, so many deaths.

Hi,
I wrote a poem with one of their pieces ... and when I get home, if I remember, I'll update this post with it ...
I like Ray and his touch was nice, but for me, it was the VISUAL'NESS that created what the Doors had, and that was all Jim! The "film" maker!
But, it's hard to not appreciate the nice things he did in the pieces as well, though it is a lot easier when you can "see them", instead of just adding a melody or idea behind it all!
As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!
