Review: Jim Morrison was the original Dark Knight. Some say his work was clumsy, self-indulgent & downright embarrasing - 'Ode To My Cock' is a prime example. But he was also capable of work so thought proking, it was beautiful. This is an excellent collection, containing as it does various pieces - poems, lyrics & the screenplay to 'The Hitchhiker'. His output was phenominal & the anger he felt is only too apparent in places. Would he have exorcised his demons had he survived Paris or would he have finally become the tired & bloated waste he threatened to become? We will never know. Personally, I will remember the genius, the inspiration and the fact that for a short, brief time, the world was a better place because of what he & the Doors achieved. Long may he reign.
Review: Great book interesting poetry

I thought the book was great and it really gives you an insight of Jim's mind, however, I feel like it would be better if I was stoned or drunk. Either way, I liked.
