"Light My Fire" by The Doors: Everything You Didn't Know
Manage episode 437666170 series 3342787
Your leather-clad lizard kings of kinda cool stories are here to go deep on the Doors groundbreaking debut album — and, of course, the electric shaman himself: Mr. James Douglas Morrison. You'll hear all about Jim's tumultuous upbringing with a father who quite possibly started the Vietnam War and his estranged relationship with his family, as well as all of the literary (and pharmaceutical) influences that went into his lyrical poetry, and numerous run-ins with censorship and the law. You’ll also learn all about the chance meeting(s)that lead to the Doors creation, the corporate training film that would yield their first recordings, their historic first use of billboards and Moog synths — and the time Jim dropped acid during a session and destroyed the recording studio.
