Strange Days: The American Media Debates The Doors, 1966-1971 Maximillian F. Grascher 2 Introduction Throughout the course of American history, there have been several prominent social and political revolutions carried out by citizens dissatisfied with the existing American institutions run by the government and its civil servants. Of these revolutions, Vietnam War and civil rights protest among youth in the 1960s was of the most influential, shaping American society in the decades to come. With US involvement in Vietnam escalating and the call for African-American civil rights becoming more insistent by the year, thousands of America’s youth took to the streets to protest the country’s foreign and domestic policies and to challenge the US government, much to the anger of America’s older generations. Artists played a critical role in the unrest, including musicians who encouraged a reformation of American society’s established norms through revolution.

  • Behind the Doors: Perceptions of Reality
    Behind the Doors: Perceptions of Reality ALBERTO NONES Aesthetic and Ethical Perception of Reality Following a contribution on the Doors that recently appeared on this journal,1 this paper intends to specify which elements of newness were introduced by the band as well as the roots from which they originated. A secondary aim is to throw some more light on the way the Doors differentiated themselves from the hippie and counterculture movements, although they of course shared many of their motives, the foremost of which was a general sense of rupture. Listening to a song like “Break on Through (to the Other Side)” (track 1 of The Doors, Elektra, January 1967) truly gives the sense of a break to the other side, a passage, a change of physical and metaphysical status. The song opened the Doors’ first album and was also their first official single, the medium through which the band began the climb to success. In 1967 calls to break to the other side, which may sound harmless if decontextualized today, were growing. They represented an invitation to make one’s way into a dizzying freedom, where life energy was seemingly boundless and aimed at something transcendent. The invitation was to go beyond, and this paper tries to explain in what sense. It was not the Doors, of course, who invented the concept of going beyond the limits, nor, for that matter, the hippies or the exponents of counterculture. In certain contexts, such as the sixties, this timeless temptation has surfaced in a particularly acute form, as if it were a collective contagion, and its transposition in music can be disruptive.

  • Experience the Ultimate Doors Tribute Show
    Is Everybody In? Experience the Ultimate Doors Tribute Show... The Doors have captured the imagination of every generation since their songs flew to the top of the charts in 1967 and the world was first introduced to their unique sound and charismatic front man, Jim Morrison. Hit songs such as “Light My Fire”, “Break On Through”, and “Riders on The Storm” remain in heavy rotation on the radio today. Their hit songs, however, provide only a glimpse of who The Doors were. A live Doors show combined elements of rock, blues, jazz, psychedelia, poetry, shamanism, and live theatre, treating audiences to a glimpse of ‘The Other Side’. The American Night, from Seattle Washington, recreates the energy, myth and experience of a live Doors concert. At an American Night show, the audience steps back in time to an evening of music, poetic drama, and the unexpected. The show unfolds before the eyes of the audience who imagine they are witnessing a legendary Doors performance. The night feels surreal. “When will this dream stop?” the audience asks. Unlike some Doors tribute shows, which focus entirely on the part of Jim Morrison, The American Night is a complete Doors tribute experience. Audiences are captivated by The American Night’s attention to detail and realism, using original vintage instruments to tap into the vibe of a live Doors concert. The musicians of the Night share a special bond with the music as lifelong Doors fans. The American Night is available to entertain at your club, venue, or special event.

  • The Poet Behind the Doors: Jim Morrison's Poetry and the 1960S
    THE POET BEHIND THE DOORS: JIM MORRISON’S POETRY AND THE 1960S COUNTERCULTURAL MOVEMENT A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Art in English By Steven Andrew Erkel, B.A. Washington, DC April 20, 2011 Copyright 2011 by Steven Andrew Erkel All Rights Reserved ii THE POET BEHIND THE DOORS: JIM MORRISON’S POETRY AND THE 1960S COUNTERCULUTRAL MOVEMENT Steven Andrew Erkel, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Ricardo L. Ortiz , Ph.D ABSTRACT While there has been a wealth of literature on Jim Morrison, the lead singer of the Doors, little work has actually been done to engage in a serious critical study of his poetry and lyrics. As a result, critics have continually misrepresented his work (usually linking it to a drug culture), the poetic tradition from which he built, and, most importantly, his place within the context of the 1960s. Looking at both his poetry and his lyrics, this thesis begins to discover reasons for Morrison’s fractured relationship with his generation. This relationship can be better understood by examining Morrison’s work alongside two cultural phenomena that were incredibly popular during the 1960s: Eastern religion and also communal living. While, on the one hand, Morrison uncompromisingly insisted upon individuality, allowing people to become the creators of their own reality through their imagination, the spiritual practice of Eastern religion and the material practice of communal living on the other hand insisted upon people following specific creeds and doctrines to reach a higher level of spiritual cognition and/or inner peace.

  • THE DOORS – a Collection
    im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 01805 – 060347 90476 [email protected] THE DOORS – A Collection Er war ein Dichter, ein Sexsymbol, ein charismatischer Performer und eine Schreckgestalt für die Sittenwächter. Jim Morrison verkörperte die dunkle und mystische Seite der Flower-Power-Ära, war Charles Baudelaire und Oscar Wilde in einer Person und nicht zuletzt - Sänger einer der kultigsten Bands der Rockgeschichte. Zusammen mit Ray Manzarek, John Densmore und Robby Krieger gründete er THE DOORS, um die auch heute kein Musikfan und kein Musiker herum kommt. Am 3. Juli jährt sich der Todestag Jim Morrisons, und in Gedenken an die Ikone der Rock-Poesie veröffentlichen Rhino Records im Juli 2011 die vollständige Album-Kollektion THE DOORS - A Collection. THE DOORS - A Collection enthält alle sechs Studioalben, die in der Originalbesetzung der DOORS zwischen 1967 und 1970 veröffentlicht wurden, in einer aufwändig gestalteten Box, die mit authentisch replizierten Papierschubern ausgerüstet ist. Sämtliche Songs wurden bereits 2005 zum 40. Gründungsjahr der DOORS von Bruce Botnik und THE DOORS (Manzarek, Densmore und Krieger) im 40th Anniversary Mix neu gemischt und remastert und sind zum ersten Mal in einer Box erhältlich. Für Sammler ein Leckerbissen, für Musikfans ein unabdingbares MUSS, denn A Collection lässt die musikalische Geschichte der Band im ihrer ganzen Schönheit nachvollziehen. THE DOORS fanden sich 1965 zusammen und benannten sich nach Aldous Huxleys bahnbrechender Drogen- Analyse „The Doors of Perception“. Alle vier Bandmitglieder waren Film-, Kunst- oder Musikstudenten, und aus Ermangelung eines passenden Bassisten übernahm Keyboarder Manzarek die Basslinien auf seinem Rhodes- Piano. Der charakteristische DOORS-Sound war geboren.

  • "If the Doors of Perception Were Cleansed Every Thing Would Appear to Man As It Is, Infinite."
    "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite." • Izvor: L.A., Kalifornija, ZDA • Slog: rock (jazz, hard, blues) ‘vsi govorijo o rocku in jazzu, končno skupaj…ne vem če se to lahko zgodi, a če se, upam da smo to mi‘ (John Densmore) Jim Morrison(pesnik, vokalist) Ray Manzarek (klaviature) John Densmore(bobni) Robby Krieger(kitara) https://www.youtube.com/w atch?v=uzJW9zEgGf8 2 min začetek • Julija 1965 sta se v Kaliforniji srečala Jim Morrison in Ray Manzarek. Morrison je Manzareku povedal, da piše pesmi in ta ga je dovolj opogumil, da je zapel "Moonlight Drive". Manzarek predlagal, da ustanovita band. • Čez eno leto je skupina igrala v LA klubu, a kmalu so bili tako dobri, da so postali hišni band kluba Whisky a Go Go. Ker so bili zdaj že prepoznavni je Morrison poskušal najti založbo • Opazila jih je založba Elektra Records in podpisali so pogodbo. Kmalu pa jih je klub Whishy a Go Go odpustil zaradi Incidenta, ki se nanaša na Morrisonovo haluciniranje po zaužitju LDS-ja, ko je deklamiral svojo verzijo grške drame o Ojdipu. televizija • The Doors se na televiziji pojavijo 25 avgusta '67, ko so promovirali posnetek "Light My Fire". Glasbeni video ni dosegel komercialnega uspeha in nastop je bil bolj ali manj pozabljen. • Tako je bilo dokler istega leta pojavili v šovu 'The Ed Sullivan Show'- potem so si pridobili tudi televizijsko pozornost. in vse to zaradi besede, besede, ki je Ed Sullivan Morrisonu ni nikoli odpustil. Prosili so jih namreč, da bi besedo "higher" zamenjali z "better", saj se ne spodobi reči "high" na nacionalni televiziji.
