I'm 37 and heard "Light My Fire" for the first time when I was in 4th grade and since could tell you virtually any fact about Jim, Ray, Robbie, John and everyone surrounding them. I had to count, I have 28 books on The Doors and countless records, CDs, DVDs, MP3s and anything you can think of media related to them. To say I am a fan, is an understatement.

Back in the days of record stores I was like one of the characters in "High Fidelity" chasing down all the rare Europe and Asia release only and ordering anything that was not available to the masses lol.

Ray was amazingly intelligent.

Always a favorite:

“Is everybody in? Is everybody in? Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin. The entertainment for this evening is not new, you've seen this entertainment through and through you have seen your birth, your life, your death....you may recall all the rest. Did you have a good world when you died? -enough to base a movie on??”

I was not hugely into rock and roll as young man, so I learned to love the Doors and the Stones and Zepplin in the USAF.
I was 'raised on the radio' more or less. I dug the wider spectrum once I began listening to it, the military is a huge shock
of music when you first hit it. There is someone into every kind of music and you kind of learn it all at once. But radio
was funny back when i was actually growing up. Too much easy listening and pop. But at least it didn't suck, lol, like it
does now.
