James Douglas Morrison (* Melbourne, Florida December 8 1943 -. Paris, July 3 1971), good known as Jim Morrison, was a singer, writer and American poet, celebrated to be the vocalist of the group The Doors.
A touch of their biography
It was descending of Scottish and Irish, and an American (admiral of the first nuclear ship) military pilot's of the marine one son. From boy their family should move to different cities of United States and to live in military diverse bases. After leaving from their homestead to early age, he/she studied cinema in UCLA (The Ángel), where he/she lived in the beach, and he/she was devoted to their first and stronger vocation: the poetry.
Jim Morrison had an intellectual high rate: 149 [without references]. This rate was reflected in the type of books that he/she read: They went from the complete works of Nietzsche to authors like Huxley, Kerouac, Baudelaire and Rimbaud. The professors of the university talked tendidamente with Jim it has more than enough books of this type, and some in statements to the authors of Jim's biography [1] they defined those chats like: it "seemed as if him same he/she had written those books, most of the other students didn't end up understanding them as him."
In 1965, after graduating in the university of California, he/she had a casual encounter with Ray Manzarek, former class partner and now colleague. As a mean of broadcast for their poetry, it accepted to form, together with Manzarek in the keypads, Robby Krieger in the guitar and John Densmore in the battery, the Californian group The Doors whose name is inspired by William's appointment Blake: "If the gates of the perception remained open, everything would appear before the such man which is, infinite."
After giving many concerts for local of The Ángel, they got a contract to play in a well-known pub as "Whiskey to go go." Night after night they approached their more popular topics, among those that "The was End", compound topic for Morrison that ended the song every night with a different verse. One night, he/she showed up something late and in an ethyl state; he/she told to their partners that would begin the feature with "The End." Already at the end of the song, and while their friends played expectant, Morrison intoned the versed edípico:
-Father?
-Is Yes?
-I want to kill you...
-Mother? (Mother?)
-I want to... fuck you!!!
For the owner of the place of business that was too much and it tossed them of the place of business, while, as it is counted, the whole public screamed of emotion. Paul Rothchild, producer and for that time owner of the company discográfica Elektra Records, was there that night and it continued to the group until the backdoor, where it showed them its admiration and he/she intended them to record a disk as soon as possible.
In 1967 the group published its first album. Plain Light my Fire stayed during a lot of time to the head of popularity in the magazine Billboard.
It is necessary to highlight the dramatic change that Morrison experienced until transforming into the star of the group The Doors. During their childhood and adolescence Morrison had many problems of legal capacity that made him to be a very insecure person. Their biggest influence, of adolescent and as singer and as for the scenic mean, it was Elvis Presley, to who didn't know, neither he/she saw in concert, but of who knew all their index practically, especially that taken place by Presley in record SUN like it was "Mystery Train", which interpreted many times in their live concerts. Its biggest barrier to unite to the group was that it suffered scenic fear. Their first concerts made them giving the shoulder to the public. This took him/her to take drugs before each concert. It was so much the impact that you/they had especially in him the drugs that made an expert to become in the topic, with the peyote, being interested in Chamanismo. He/she even wrote a treaty on these.
Their provocative attitude in scene, perturbing the public order, he/she made that their concerts were prohibited in different cities of the United States. March of 1969, 1 soon after a judicial action in the one that some wizards, although there were not tests graphic fehacientes, they affirmed that he/she taught their penis and he/she simulated a masturbation (among other things), it was taken in opinion; in 1971 before the risk of being condemned to prison, he/she decided to abort the music and to be resided in Paris, where he/she would be devoted completely to their biggest inclination: the poetry.
Currently their tomb, in the Cemetery Père-Lachaise, is the fourth tourist more visited attraction of Paris.
Currently their tomb, in the Cemetery Père-Lachaise, is the fourth tourist more visited attraction of Paris.
It is important to make note that Morrison aborted the musical career in his moment of more popularity, and when The Doors was transforming into the American only group that competed with success with the British big bands as The Beatles or The Rolling Stones.
With their true name, James Douglas Morrison, it had already published three books of poems of high lyricism and singularity: The Lords (The God), New The Creatures (The New Infants), An american prayer (An American sentence).
These books have the complexity of being able to be read as philosophy and, for moments, as sociological tests or conceptual manifestos.
The 3 of Julio of 1971 Jim Morrison was opposing dead in the bathtub of his floor of the Neighborhood of Marais in Paris, where he lived next to his couple and loving, Pamela Courson. Not there was autopsy but it was declared that he/she died for a cardiac pause according to their death certificate. They exist people that question the official version of the musician's death, since the circumstances they were something extraneous. It was said that Jim's father took out the body of his son of the cemetery to take it to United States, but fonts of Père Lachaise they assure that nobody you can take a body of the cemetery without the management of the cemetery knows it.
THE DEATH
So much it has been written and speculated about Jim's life Morrison, their death and their life after dead that is not enough to count the facts. It is also necessary to give the myths that have created these.
In the last years sixty, the singer of Doors, Jim Morrison founds a company of called publicity Zeppelín Publishing Company with the help of a legal department of Warner Brothers Pictures and Atlantic Records. In accordance with the promotions of Zeppelín, "Jim wanted to put his hands on the trademark Zeppelín before Led Zeppelín makes it. The I achieve it while in America everybody wise who were Doors, but before the other group was known... ". Zeppelín Publishing Company was given of high in the register and setting in hibernation for its but it takes resuscitation.
The three of Julio 1973, the star of the rock James Douglas Morrison was supposedly, opposing dead reportadamente in Paris, France in his apartment supposedly leased as writer's studio. Their "wife", Pamela Courson, was the first in discovering the cadaver in the bathroom. Jim knocked down in the bathtub, nude and half submerged. In a start she thought that "Jim was simulating", realizing that he had just shaved.
That that next followed the fact they were a series of extravagant and muddy events, probably conspiracies, extraneous matches and unreal news scanned James' death Douglas Morrison. Post-mortem they existed three days of news lagoons. This was known and many asked times for the means, included articles in The Berkeley Barb, Esquire, the Free Press, Sounds, The Baltimore Morning Sun, and many others. Robert Hillburn wrote for those dates in THE Time, call its necrology of Morrison "Because the news of Morrison's death are late?" starting a spark that would end up burning.
The lagoon prevented to those but intimate friends of Morrison of retracting the witnesses, tests and--the body--of an investigation but penetrating. Even to Jim's parents they were prohibited to see the body.
Pamela calls to a half French one local so that browses the body. Dr. Max Vasille. so that takes proceedings after seeing their husband's body. Dr. Vasille put the lawsuit of death like "cardiac arrest." Many people saw the sealed casket, included the manager of Doors Bill Siddons who seemingly decided not to see the body. The official opinion that Siddon then would give to the press it was "Jim Morrison he/she died from natural" lawsuits and that "the death was calm."
Even when Jim's death was officially filed as "cardiac arrest", its personal physician Dr. Derwin, said to the press that "Jim Morrison was in perfect shape before traveling to Paris."
This has been recently complicated for "Queen Mu" writing in the pioneer magazine of the future Hulls 2000 (summer, 1991). Seemingly I Hull 2000 he/she discovered a strange file I prescribe in the one that said that Jim Morrison suffered of sexual different illnesses, and the treatment that the one had continued to cure them. The "cancer was mentioned of I punished...." Queen Mu wrote:
".. Hey! Nobody wants to be ejected of the book of the life. How many physicians in the ability of medicine of UCLA they did know that Jim Morrison was being been about gonorrhea in the autumn of 1970? Did they know the biopsy that confirmed the adenoma of the urethra--usually consequence of the gonorrhea? This is a matter form of cancer which their only solution had been the castration..." . Queen Mu, pp. 131
No autopsy was made to Jim's body Morrison, like it is usual in the unusual or suspicious deaths in France. To have friends that at least they had seen the body and all this had been closed.
According to many reports, Morrison's confidant Alan Ronay also helps to maintain that lagoon around the death. Jim's body Morrison was quickly prepared to be buried in Pere Lachaise. Pere Lachaise is a national monument and important people as Balzac, Edith Piaf, Moliere, OscarWilde and other French have been buried there. Regarding Pere Lachaise: Jim had chosen the tomb carefully for his imminent death. He had visited the place like very late three days before their "death." This has been said in Break On Though and Morrison's biographies.
The means for once they showed suspicions since rarely on Morrison's tomb it is buried a foreigner in a cemetery that is a national monument. Reports like this in Baltimore Morning Sun questioned as the one its entry it should bargain in the cemetery to be buried.
Seeing to the tomb in Pere Lachaise, the battery of Doors John Densmore said". the tomb is very short!" the manager of Doors Bill Siddons, when it was asked on Pere Lachaise, he/she said"... as it still happened not this clearing for my." A rock magazine in 1981 gave but life to the controversy. Anyway, the tomb of
Morrison in Pere Lachaise continues without being marked by several months, adding and maintaining a great velum on the body and the evidence.
Single two people saw Jim died Morrison. their wife Pamela and Dr. Vasille. Dr. Vasille has refused repeated times the interviews and this dead one won't respond to any question, and Pamela.
THE HIDDEN CONNECTION
Besides "the facts" that we can find them in books, movies, interviews and press reports, a clever savage of rumors also exists explaining "that that really step." Many of these rumors are based on the hidden thing, black and white magic, Vooodo, magic Christendom and in the mystic thing
In the biography of Prochniky's Morrison, Break has more than enough On Through, there is a description of the hidden rumors on Morrison:
".incluso but incredible they are the theories that Morrison somehow was murdered by his supernatural pansies. While Jim was fascinated by the hidden thing, it is a supposition that an envious rival or a left lover could cause his death in Paris inside a bathtub, stabbing a puppet Voodoo or they melt an album of Doors while it invoked a curse."
".. Another supernatural theory is that Morrison's body was driven to big excesses for the spirit of the shaman that he/she believed to have invaded him/her in a highway of Mexico. When this spirit or a demon could no longer influence but to Jim to manage the world abort it leaving him/her psychologically and physically exhausted without any desire of continuing toward before...."
Another theory on the hidden thing finds it in the biography "Non One Here Gets Out Alive"
".Otras theories scanned the I circulate I become intimate of friends of Jim. One of them was that they killed him/her while they took out their eyes with a knife to release their soul, another decayed that a maiden kills him/her from New York for witchcraft..."
The anthropologist Allison Bailey Kennedy even arrives but far involving Morrison in a mysterious cult of Orfeo in the initialization poisonous different spiders is used, which release "according to a Greek tradition. the black soul that burns incandescent as a cicada, immolating a furious passion."
Jim Morrison many times he/she recognized to have relationships with the hidden thing and especially with the philosophy of Voodoo or Voudun and their magic. It was a part of their "road." The motto "Mr. I wet Risin" it was an anagram. it was a shape-up of the letters that their name Jim Morrison has. I wet it is a religious that describes Shaman "an icon of power" or affiliation end. The African root Mo refers to the dark thing or the darkness in if. I wet it is an I end I specify of the African witchcraft Voodoo.
"I believe that there are a heap of areas of images and feelings that are demonstrated rarely daily to the exterior in the life... when these they go outside, they can take perverse" forms Morrison he/she said 1968 circa. He continued, saying that "the shaman is the shaman, as a physician in witchcraft." Morrison reiterated in any place that "we should not forget that the snake or the lizard is the identificativo of the unconsciousness and of the forces of the wrong.... this the legendary "King Lizard" said. "The King Lizard" was not one of Jim's hidden names Morrison. The "The angel exterminator" was also called in the hidden circles, in accordance with the one criticizes of cinema Gene Youngblood and others.
In the biography "Non One Hear Gets Out Alive" the authors Hopkins and Sugarman remind Morrison drinking blood with an initiate witch. In some hidden traditions, the use of blood is merged with some sexual acts, this is very communio in hidden sciences as Voodoo / Voudun or Them Ophitis like offering to the gods.
Speaking of Tantra Vama Marg and of Voodoo Petro, we have a description of the mythological death concerning Jim's beliefs Morrison and their possible ones you practice. At least we should know these ideas about the death:
".El human body is not but that a vessel cleared for the gods. .... It is probably a place I criticize where an I number of sacred forces they can converge. The players are the man's basic components: the z'etiole, the gros bon ange and her you bon ange, as well as the name of the cadaver. I finish it it is the body in if, what is the flesh and the blood. The name is the gift of the gods and the spirit of the flesh what allows to each body part to work. This is for example the residual of the appearance of the name, this gives form much post-mortem to the cadaver chemistry of the body. The name, above the death of the body begins to pass slowly to the organism of the spirit.... a process that lasts 18 months until being completed...."
Remembering, Jim's tomb Morrsion in Pere Lachait continues without marking for many months so that nobody can make anything with the cadaver neither to what there is around. The whole event from him first day was a lagoon of information, he/she remembers.
The rock singer Greg Shaw, writing in Bam! and I Wet Navigator I interpret Morrison's song The End, assuring that each line of the song in a direct call to the Bard Thodol. "Everything seems to agree if one this familiarized with the mystic" thing Shaw he/she said
APPEARANCES LATER OF THE HIDDEN "DEATH"
In the first two years after Morrison's "death" in Paris, many times the star of the rock has been seen. These appearances go from those but ridiculous until some that can give us that to think.
The Free Press and very quick several informations described to somebody in 1973 appearing different times in San Francisco. There Morrison was involved with businesses and banking transactions with San Francisco's Bank of America. The employee that received the transaction, Walt Fleischer, confirms that somebody resemblance to Morrison and that it used his name making businesses in Bank of America was even. The also said that it was far from assuring that was the "dead" artist since Morrison I don't teach any identification. Can this be because there was an identification together with their picture in the file of the bank, with James' name Douglas Morrison? If, even you this studying.
In accordance with the authors Riordan and Prochniky, Morrison was also seen in different occasions giving a turn in unpleasant" "places in Los Angeles and it dressed the attire of leather of Morrison, everything in black. This was exactly two years after the "death" in Paris. Investigating a little but we know that those unpleasant" "places are favorable fields for the gays dressed in leather and characteristic of the underground community gay of Los Angeles.
There were also many rumors on that Morrison was also appearing in Lousiana and he made several radio interviews. Another time, Prochniky, and Riordan revealed that:
".En a dark radio in the mean west, Jim supposedly was shown in the death of the night and I carry out a long interview in which I explain everything.... After the interview it disappeared in the darkness another time. As you can imagine, no recording of the interview was made and no believable font remembers heard book credit the interview. ....."
In a called album Phantom's Divine Comedy also rushed in 1974. It was murmured that he/she was Jim Morrison singing with an anonymous band with such names as battery X, Under AND, and pianist Z." The music supposedly resembled Jim's sound a lot Morrison. All this another time I add and I increase it manufactures it of the rumor, and I shake the fascination of the I publish.
However, in a wheel of press of 1992 of the group Zeppelin, it was revealed that Morrison's friend Iggy Pop music was who he/she made the members of the board and I help to the double-cross. This added but it lards indicating that a lot of people were willing to act the one in "double-cross of the death." Until a press wheel in 1992 the company that I launch the album Phantom has not wanted to reveal to the one who you/they belong the names that you/they appear in the album, or the singer's name. which was it but Pop safe Iggy.
Deeming all these rumors, the pianist of Doors Ray Manzarek said: "If a type exists capable of escenificar its own death. creating a ridiculous stock purchase warrant of death and paying to a French physician. and putting a sack of hundred fifty pounds inside the casket and to disappear to some part of this planet. África who knows. that type is Jim Morrison who serious able of taken book credit all this to good port.
He becomes intimate friend of Jim Morrison Tom Baker, he/she wrote in High Time (June of 1981) "I want to believe in the rumors that you/they say that Jim has falsified his own death."
A fans group currently was but far and they tried to catch the files on Morrison's denture, seemingly to try to request licence to exhume the cadaver and to try to make coincide the evidences.
This was quickly collapsed by Morrison's parents and their attorneys at law. at least for the time being.
It is very well-known that Morrison had sowed the seeds that would make that you creates this joint venture type repeatedly. that the one had falsified his own death and it was welcomed to another identity. In Fillmore in San Francisco in 1967, Jim began to suggest that the one will launch a "notice of death" to attract the carefulness of the national press toward the band. This was when the invention "Mr Wets Risin" anagram the one which serious utilized when the "escapes to Africa" and he/she wanted to contact privately with friends.
Morrison also told Danny Sugarman and to Jerry Hopkins in but of an occasion that the one could "radically see as a changing careers, reemerging as a good dress with tie businessman" The wizard of Jac Holzman's Steve Harris even reminds to Jim Morrison asking that it could happen if the one "dies" suddenly.... as it would affect to the businesses, lists of sales, the press, and would he/she believe it to him people?. With faithful Mary Francis Werebelow Jim passed the time having long conversations on as the pupils they had stolen the body of cristo of the crypt, jocosely calling it "the abstraction of Easter, etc."
In an I articulate of the magazine Rolling Stone of September of 1981, 17 the author Jerry Hopkins picked up many Morrison's appearances:
"The first of them were a type of soon after of Morrison's death it began to take out money with checks to name of Morrison. It was their money it was not signing bad checks so alone that it is it was dressed as Morrison he/she would make it in this time of the leather, and that the one had said to everybody that the era the dead" "singer.
Did "the telephone sound and did I catch it: 'would it accept a call of long distance to reverted collection of Jim Morrison?
It was a very interesting conversation. ...." " Our conversation was destabilizing. He told me of to go to Paris and to dig their tomb until seeing the body, but it stops that a licence it is needed of '12 Catholic bishops'... The visit to its house was even but insulting. There at the end of a room there was a 'altar' dedicated to converted Morrison with pósters, flowers, and religious icons ---- the works!" Sugerman.
Years later, I had the occasion of to visit and to interview the owner of that place who said to be Jim Morrison. He counted me things and particulars Hopkins it has more than enough, and also as other reporters they had tried to steal in the altar to take out a sole right.
Another unreal vision involved "Donny" of Baton Roughe, Lousiana. He described to Jim Morrison in Morrison's 1978 house. Donny said it to its friend "Larry" while Larry tried to enter in the music's world.
I "remind Larry talking me about a whole wall of a room full with books crossing it. All the books were on Satan, or they had something to do with the one. The also counted me on a great seat that seemed a throne, in which this man sat down and he looked as his naked children they ran around.... I suppose that your you can suppose who is that old kinki man it was. Jim Morrison, The king lizard! . Sugarman.
Another called person Rhea (Greek goddess of the fertility) argument that her Morrison was living with Jim in 1979 with the son of both "Jesé Blue James." She said that Morrison was "wrapped in a state of pure energy.... and that it could be materialized and desmaterializarse when he wanted." She and Jim were also in constant communication telepathic and electromagnetic synchronization."
THE INTELLIGENT CONNECTION, JM2
The father of the Icon of the Rock Jim Morrison was an admiral of the marine one from the United States, specialized in intelligence and contrainteligencia. Their name is Steve Morrison.
During the first years after Jim's "death" Morrison a good one numbers of interesting articles they exitted to the light. These they were interested in the activity below Morrison's law; their "death" or the intelligence even can hidden book credit its own death. One of those but explicit Dagblatte appeared in a Scandinavian magazine. This articulates it details the efforts of the French intelligence of murdering Jim Morrison in Paris. The author Bernard Wolfe wrote Jim's true life death Morrison for Esquire (June of 1972) report the history of:
"Sherry, a girl of Pasadena that knew Morrison very well: ".no could believe what you/they said the newspapers. Supposing that the one has an attack to the such heart and as me he/she read, it was clear that he/she had died for that reason but that or who made that arrives to that point, it is as saying that Ernest Hemingway died from an intense brain" wound
In the first years post-mortem of Morrison the owner of B of TO Communications, called James Douglas Morrison, supposedly was operand as an intelligence agent for several you number you of domestic and international groups included CIA, NSA, INTERPOL, Swedish Inteligence and others. There are also connections among James Douglas Morrison and hidden several groups with probable connections in intelligence. [JM2]
Several documents exist involving JM1 in the circles of the intelligence. JM2 can also be the singing dead who is part of Doors. New JM2 aftertaste to old JM1 identity of the rock and roll to become a "James Bond" dressed with suit and such tie and I eat Morrison it predicted when the one was with Doors.
They have been discovered letters between the high debit memorandums of the American intelligence and JM2 as well as of these to big media like ABC, but in all them the important data were crossed out with what is impossible to demonstrate anything.
From 1972 up to 1992 JM2 has left a heap of unreal papers and appearances all over the world. This includes letters of and from the governor from Louisiana Edwin Edwards and the director of the CIA William Colby, also to Washington D.C.
They have been many reports that bind to the FBI with JM2, as well as with the Danish intelligence, one of these documents in a bank identification, although the face this erased one, but this documentation belongs to Bank of America. As well as other documents in those that James' name appears Douglas Morrison and all these documents have later dates to July of 1971.
MULTIPLE MORRISON
As the theories with you "mutilate Oswald" of Kennedy's murder, rumors and urban legends also exist describing theories with "multiple Morrison"
The idea that Jim Morrison "in life" was different people different plaintiffs, or agents of the intelligence it has been given by some time. Behind song of Morrison in the album Phantom (now it is known that it was Pop Iggy) exists also rumors that a banker from well-known Louisiana as Richard Tanguay. I become intimate friend of Mick Jagger .perpetuo the double-cross. You even ends up saying that a certain Jim Morrison (past 1971) tried to show up for governor from Louisiana, era Richard Tanguay (related with the circus of Eva's legend Tanguay) and that this he made of Jim Morrison in Europe even song with Doors in the tour that these they carried out with Rolling Stones.
It is impossible to pick up all the urban legends that are you loose somewhere around nowadays, the only thing that we can make is to notice the facts, and in the circumstances of their death, it is pending the pansies of each one, dead or it was not always in our minds the physique of a young Morrison but The King Lizard takes to transform at the end into Mr I Wet Risin.
John Lennon, to 27 years of their death.
