listening Robbie's audio book "Try To Set The Night On Fire" , he was in the throes of his heroin addiction when he gave this interview...patient and gracious nonetheless...
He said Jim was a scatterbrain. And he was, but he was a charismatic, creative, impulsive, addictive, Adonis type scatterbrain. As great as the rest of the band was, it was the Jim Morrison persona that put them on the map. I'm not saying that's fair, but that's what happened. When you think of the Doors you naturally associate them with Jim. But make no mistake, this was an excellent band of excellent players and writers. It's just that Jim was the front man.
Robbie Krieger sounds, super humble, and laid back, in laughing off, what several personal, still painful questions, in his monotone style, that he’s obviously been deflecting in interviews for years at this point. Sadly they really did end up F’ing up the movie, where Oliver Stone took great liberty with the truth license in savagely bastardizing Jim true reputation, just for entertainments sake. No one coulda came along to fill the shoes of Jim Morrison, he was a force of nature, Robbie could’ve given Jim more musical credit here for his lyrics timing cadence and rhythmic delivery, Jim overall vibe was is as specifically and uniquely irreplaceable as a Hendrix, Miles Davis, SRV, or Randy Rhoads. Robbie had a short window yet still, he is a towering genius on guitar with his style and feel. It’s a real shame that Robbie, never latched onto a less wild hit singer, or reformed into a super group, or even went instrumental like Jeff Beck, and Harvey Mandel, Robbie Krieger and extended his catalog over the decades. I have always had Robbie Krieger ranked among my top 10 guitarists. This was cool interview...8)
@@riccardocondorelli2220 In his book he wrote about how he became addicted to heroin in the 80’s. It was a full-tilt addiction, too. His friends (Densmore, Manzarek, and others) actually staged an intervention because they were worried that he would die. I’d say he was strung out here!
I was a big Doors during my high school years , 1967 - 1971 , back in N.J... The energy I got from their music had the most influence on me. Their music made me want to build better hot rod cars ! We revived a few nice cars back then. Then those days ended around 1973 when gasoline shortages started and environmental concerns got to me.
The best filmed version of The End was done at the CBC studios in Toronto ,where the broadcaster had flown The Doors in from L.A. and invited the local Yorkville kids to the private show.
I thought I had heard and knew a lot about the Doors, but I learned some new things with this interview. He's about 40 here, so I imagine a lot of the memories and impressions are still fresh and we get a different perspective then his more recent interviews over the last 20 years where he glosses over more. Aside from the Doors name issue he and Ray later had with Densmore, it looks like there was already underlying tension. Different personalities can clash I guess.
This interview must have been popular back in the day. John had access to this interview before he wrote his book. He has quoted parts of this interview in his book.
I grew up in Coronado and knew the family (never met Jim). Anna Morrison was married to an English guy named Allen Graham, who was total conartist. He burnt down the family home, with the family in it (everyone got out ok) for insurance reasons. She divorced him soon after! Andy Morrison, Jim's brother, also had a substance abuse problem, but he was a nice guy.
I bought a create of records in the early 1990's at a yard sale when I was a kid for a dollar. That Doors 13 album was in there with them.. I never knew it was a greatest hits at the time. I just thought I had a really bad ass Doors record that most people didn't know about.
It's funny that the guy doing the interview sounds so much like the Tony Thomas, Howard Smith, Bob Chorush, Ben-Fong Torres interviews with Morrison in the late 60s & 70-71, seems like the person would have done a little more research, but the style of questioning is so much like the earlier interviews. It never comes up, but Harrison Ford worked as a cameraman for the Doors early in his career. The connections between Morrison, Manzarek, Coppola and Milius are interesting when it came to putting music to the movie Apocalypse Now.
Saying that Morrison wasn't musically inclined is inaccurate. In ray Manzarek's and John Densmore's books they describe how Jim remembered his lyrics by making them into little melodies and songs. He would sing the melody and the band would flesh it out. Not every musician can read music or is classically trained.
Yes you are right I read those books to and he is credited as writing a lot of songs mainly the Melody but he had to have had some idea of how the background music would sound and then the rest of the band would build on that. I think it was John Densmore book where Jim Morrison was credited as having written the song people are strange So he was musically inclined he just lacked the discipline to pick up an instrument and master it
The Doors was a garage band before Morrison joined. Then they morphed somewhat into the groovy sounds of the day (jam, psychedelia), but essentially they did hard core blues sounds in public when possible. Coming up with chords isn't that freakin' difficult. Even Densmore could suggest chords possibly.
What is this? You're not musical if you're not with an instrument? Jim wrote all their songs before he asked them to start writing some too, he sang like a god, the melodies, voice is an instrument - He's not musical?
@@Pimp-Mastergarage band? Dude Ray was a classically trained piano player, in fact the intro to Light my fire is like something Bach would write, Densmore is like a jazz drummer doing weird bossa nova beats, and Robbie had a very strange background with guitar like Flamenco and then you got Jim lol . Sorry ive just never heard something so wrong. They were very very far from a garage band sound and thats why they are still loved today, great musicians all 4 of them.
Cool interview. Krieger was in the middle of a serious heroin addiction at this point in his life. He still comes across well in spite of his crazy lifestyle
The thing about needing to find band mates who are on the same psychic plane as you is very insightful. I’ve played with tons of guys and very rarely does that spark happen, and that’s almost always the reason why. Different reasons for playing music.
Have to correct Robby around the 9 minute mark. Jim was quite musical for someone who didn't play an instrument. For a lot of their songs, including Hello I Love You, Jim would sing the melody and the guys would build the music around that.
He mentions Eddie Hoh, a great drummer from that era, who disappeared for many years, and unfortunately passed a short while ago, after being found. He appears on many records, notably the Monkees.
Robert Alan Krieger (Los Ángeles, California; 8 de enero de 1946) es un guitarrista de Rock and roll y compositor estadounidense. En la banda The Doors actuó como guitarrista y escribió algunas de las canciones más famosas, como Light my fire, Love Me Two Times, Touch Me, Peace Frog y Love Her Madly. En 2011 la revista Rolling Stone lo puso en el número 76 en su lista de los 100 mejores guitarristas de todos los tiempos.
She was a military wife of a very very high ranking officer in the US Navy. Not many men reach the rank of Rear Admiral Morrison in a career, he was also a naval aviator. Jim's father was quite an interesting man in his own right. His father was the equivalent of a two-star General.
I really dig Robbie's music ! A great guitar player. The song when the music over says it for me. . Time for Jim to look for some soft asylum . He's headed for the big sleep. So when the music was over he became screwed up on alcohol and was out of control until the end. Or it could have been all those Indians that jumped into his head. You know what they say about giving whiskey to Indians. Yeah if he hadn't wiped it out in Miami he might still be with us today. Yeah mr mojo rising.
About Robby’s answer to Jim being musical…..I believe he was thinking the question was about Jim playing musical instruments and not a vocal question. This is why he added he can play the piano a bit. Just a thought.
Jim was musical he wrote many of the doors songs, acapella Style, because he did not play any instruments he is even credited in John Densmore book as having written people are strange in an instant after being very depressed and then the band came to talk him out of suicide and they went out for a walk and Jim drifted off somewhere nearby and came back with that song.
I really don't understand Robbie's contradiction. At first he said that Jim didn't really have any input. Then he said Jim stayed with him for a couple of weeks and they wrote a bunch of songs. I'm confused.
He didn't say that, he said Jim didn't have any input into the instrumental part, the musical part. His job was to come up with ideas for songs and come up with interesting lyrics and then work those lyrics into the music the other three would make.
The thing was Jim...the musicians were & still are best on the Planet... But JIM was driving through the spirit of RIMBAUD... THEY KNOW THE VALUE OF SEASONS. Jim was telepathic. But Robbie, I will never forget Your Guitar work....transcendental
Kreiger is so effin lucky he had the as he states "non musician" Jim Morrison with an incredibly sensual voice and poetic lyrics in a band that did not act to help an alcoholic even as it was detrimental to the band. But kreiger reaps royalties for the songs he wrote - that would have went nowhere without Jim's vocals. He also cashes in on songs that the poet Jim Morrison wrote - "This is the End", "Moonlight Ride" etc.
@@joaquindelarosa1215 Jim Morrison’s VOICE was his instrument. (Imagine that pre-pubescent sounding voice in this interview singing songs! Not happening). BYW, Robbie sounds like a braggart naming HIS songs. In each one of HIS songs, words & lines were changed/reworked to change or make better certain phrases of his songs by Jim. Neither Ray nor John contributed to words, only Jim & Robbie on those 4 songs. All the rest of words were Jim’s. It was at Jim’s insistence that all 4 names appear as writers, all the time. It seems to me that ALL 3 members should remind themselves every time a royalty check is cashed & family is taken care of, tuition paid.etc., that it was Jim’s idea that everything was equally divided. Also, Jim heard songs in his mind which he hummed to the others when they were writing, & then they all wrote together. How quickly they forget, or should I say, “ how quickly they conveniently forget the truth”, but they didn’t forget to cash royalty checks!!

He rattles off a number of British and American rock bands he listened to way back when but doesn’t mention the Beatles. How can the interviewer not follow up and ask him if he was at all impressed with the Beatles? Talk about being oblivious. And I’m surprised no one remembered or knew that Eddie Hoh was the drummer on Al Kooper’s “Super Session” album with Bloomfield, Stills and Harvey Brooks. Krieger in this interview sounds like he’s slightly high or sleepy. The interviewer does his best to get him to articulate answers.
I like Robby Krieger but it does sound like he doesn't want to give Jim the credit he deserves Both John Densmore and Ray manzarek give give much credit to Jim Morrison's musical abilities I would like to read krieger's book so that he may prove me wrong
He wasn't jealous of him he was angry with him, as many people were, because the other three guys in the band wanted to take their music career seriously and Jim just didn't.
@@joaquindelarosa1215 Jim didn't have any musical abilities, that wasn't his job, he didn't play an instrument. His job was to write lyrics, come up with ideas for songs, and work those lyrics into the arrangements conceived by the other three musicians.
@@riccardocondorelli2220 Yes, he had a problem. LSD was NOT illegal in US until 1968, then the culture turned to mushrooms (remember the mushroom tatoos on Jefferson Airplane?)
•• I’m driven nuts by him having a sucker in his mouth the whole time …..I couldn’t live with myself if I was doing this interview and I didn’t ask him to hold off on that. I don’t care who it is it’s weak to listen to someone’s mouth noises while acting like nothing is happening
About Robby’s answer to Jim being musical…..I believe he was thinking the question was about Jim playing musical instruments and not a vocal question. This is why he added he can play the piano a bit. Just a thought.
He was using heroin a lot for years probably during this interview .. I just finished his book… he started using when he was old enough to know better, at this point he wouldn’t have been going to admit it … he was always a functioning addict . Lovely guy though isn’t he .

Haha. Robbie is cool but sure is different from an interview with Ray Manzarek.
I like Robbie, he's very frank and doesn't sugarcoat any of his memories of things. He's the one guy you will get the real story from.
Robbie seems like a nice guy. Met him once after a show to sign autographs in 90s; courteous, generous, and humble.
I like how they tell the stories over the years how they called into the radio stations requesting their own songs to be played

"So he's in the dressing room with some Bimbo, allrigh'" ROFLMAO
Great archive clip, but terrible interviewer! Geesh sounds like a damn policeman grilling a suspect. No flow at all
Is this Alec Baldwin interviewing Robbie? Lol
I think Robbie was on heroin around this time
Jim was MKultrad by his own Father.
What a wasted opportunity
If you read Robby's book you'll know exactly what happened + what was going on with Robby during the time of this interview.
wasted, literally
But Jim was drunk ;)
Like Robbie but man that is annoying nasal voice.
Not impressed with the individual members.
Obviously stoned lol
Why the f*** interview someone if you haven’t the slightest clue about the simplest details of their career? It does nothing for any party involved.
Didnt like that interview at all.
Why not
About Robby’s answer to Jim being musical…..I believe he was thinking the question was about Jim playing musical instruments and not a vocal question. This is why he added he can play the piano a bit. Just a thought.
No youre absolutely right.
He was using heroin a lot for years probably during this interview .. I just finished his book… he started using when he was old enough to know better, at this point he wouldn’t have been going to admit it … he was always a functioning addict . Lovely guy though isn’t he .
