@@amitcohen3034Really? How different? They couldn't control Jim. Jim couldn't give a fuck. They loved each other. They hated each other. They loved the money. They hated themselves for loving the money. Jim couldn't give a fuck. The authorities set out only to destroy Jim. He fucked off. He could give a fuck. He didn't write a book about the band. Didn't need to. Even now in this Ray is taking a paternalistic view toward Jim. Bad move. Jim couldn't stand authority figures. Especially paternal ones. Ray should have known better. All I can say is beware psychic vampires. There's probably one looking at you now. Heroin? Nice. Kills the pain. Some people can function on it. Some can't. Worse when mixed with alcohol.

I just listened to the 11 hour Densmore audio book narrated and sung by himself I think. Used it to put myself to sleep ( I've read it before). Lasted an hour. Was still going when I woke up. Going to start again tonight. I've read all bandmates and Sugarman's books. Seen Stone's movie many times. Even watched David Cosby slag Jim off in the doco Remember my Name. There's also a couple of great docos on TH-cam. I think there's also quite a long audio interview. It's all there. Jim wasn't that hard to understand. But you can't say he wasn't unique and had a great voice and mystique. Ever seen him convulse on stage like he's possessed or heard him scream like he's exorcising everyone's demons for them? He's a legend. Death possibly helped. But so young? That's tragic. Some women will fuck you up. Fame can fuck you up. You can fuck yourself up. Whatever. What other white boy blues man literate Rock'n'roll poet had the balls to dance like a native American Indian on stage? Legend. Maybe that spirit did enter him. I've only ever seen one other white man dance like an American Indian. And he was a Kiwi. And a good friend. He's dead too at 27. Maybe there's a message in there too. Peace Chimps
Ray called me on 7/03 (Jim's exit) to represent he enjoyed my script honoring, The Doors! "...Finished your script. Very interesting, very unusual, very very clever, I like it a lot." To hear his messages and to learn more about my experimental script and series check out my (Doors To Symbolicy - Love Death Travel) and my current series and script (Newborn Awakening) for more information and progression!
I love this ! Ray was so eloquent and entertaining. I’m so sorry he passed away . Yes , he was definitely a positive guy . I’ve heard Robbie and John interviewed, they are not quite so upbeat. Robbie tends to be a bit vague and inarticulate and John comes across as a bit resentful!
Stewart Copeland was the original drummer of Ray Manzarek's reboot of The Doors called The Doors of the Twentyfirst Century (shortened to D21C). The original lineup of that band in 2002 was Ian Astbury on lead vocals, Robby Krieger on guitar, Ray Manzarek on keyboards, Stewart Copeland on drums and Angelo Barberra on bass.
Was 10 years old when Light my Fire charted. That song woke me up about sex. Bic lighter later had a tagline in a commercial, it was a guy with a cigarette in his mouth and said to his girlfriend/wife "Ursula ,Light my Fire". In high school,we always used that line when we needed a light for our cigarettes.
Salut manzarek tu m'excuseras pour la langue,je suis limité en anglais,tu es un personnage merveilleux,et ta maîtrise du clavier est unique,et en ce qui concerne le grand Jim morrison,tout ce que je peux dire de lui étant décédé,que c'était un Homme,un vrais.
ray manzeric, may you rest in peace. your salesmanship coming out of you with every spoken word deeply puts me off from listening to its entirety, and im less than 20 minutes in.... goodbye

There wouldn't have been a " The Doors " without you, Ray. Happy birthday! And thanks!
I would encourage everyone to read Ray's book.... Light My Fire....My Life With The Doors.
It was beyond excellent.
*was.?
Ray’s impeccable memory is wild. What a guy and good friend he was.
Wow...! This is pure gold dude...!! Thanks 🔥🚪🔥
Glad you like it!
@@Francazio Love it...!! 🎹
Ray was a great spokesperson, story teller of the DOORS
Although everyone of them have told a complete different story.

Makes you wish you were part of it. Thanks for the masterful storytelling Ray.
You are part of it, we all are every time we spin a Doors track. 📚🇬🇧☘️
This was really good. Never heard of it before. Ray is so positive and good natured. What an unusual life he had. Thanks.
Keep posting man. This is awesome 💯. I heard clips of this audio but not the whole thing.
I plan too, don't worry. Lot's more to come.
It's a bummer we don't have audio of his book Light My Fire
That book is a real good read@@vondeserthiker4251
Muchas gracias!
Tuve el cd en los 90's pero lo perdí...
Todo un tesoro.
Great documentary indeed very inspiring and insightful
I would have loved to have Ray as my philosophy professor at university.
Ray to prawdziwy Polak dlatego tak do mnie te klawisze trafiały Doors fan 4 ever!
He was a Pole with soul!
Absolutely fantastic! Thank you very much for sharing. The Doors are open

beautiful really enjoyed that
Thank you
You're welcome
RIP Ray & Jim 💕 ⛅️ Every time I walk around UCLA campus I think of you guys
Are the lecture halls still the same ones they would have gone in? I've wondered this before
Ray was brilliant and an incredibly talented musician. He was vital to The Doors.
What a great listen,,,
thank you Ray this is really Cool pretty neat
Thanks for share it. Always wanted to listen this!
This was an odyssey to listen to. It's hard to imagine Ray being stationed in the same county I reside in back in '62.
Ray Manzarek would have been a great voice over for documentaries. Peter Coyote style.
Enjoyed Ray telling his and the Doors history.
Ray also played on a Weird Al' song called Craigslist. A funny parody sound of Door's song's. It's brilliant. Worth a listen.
So excited to hear this
Loved this!❤
Ships With Sails is one of the greatest hidden gems in the Doors catalogue.

That guy can sure tell a story with so much energy and passion. Stewart Copeland is the only other artist that has the same persona when talking shop.
Stewart Copeland was the original drummer of Ray Manzarek's reboot of The Doors called The Doors of the Twentyfirst Century (shortened to D21C).
The original lineup of that band in 2002 was Ian Astbury on lead vocals, Robby Krieger on guitar, Ray Manzarek on keyboards, Stewart Copeland on drums and Angelo Barberra on bass.
Ray is the best story teller out of the three.
@@eileensianez6766 no Robbie is
Being French and not to stupid…ray is something else

Was Jim's father the commander of a battleship in gulf of Tonkin?
Yes he was!
Mk ultra.
His ship may actually have been fired upon as he reported, but not by Viet Cong, probably CIA. He was just another pawn in the game.
Is there a reason why he never says Bill Siddons name?
Feisty guy Ray in the years before he died but a shrinking violet during his Doors career..
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🦎👑
Why wasn't there an investigation regarding Jim's death? They could have exhumed the body to find the real cause of death.
Probably because it was obvious. Alcoholism and likely an overdose from mixing with Pam's heroin.

It's interesting that Ray almost always refers to Jim by his first and last name and not just Jim.
His wife too. It's always "Dorothy Fugikawa." 😆 It's great.
