A friend of mine is a huge Doors fan.  Ray had burnt his bridges with many Doors fans years ago with his greedy ways trying to get his hands on money from the Morrison estate, or something.

He was a great keyboard player though, one hand playing the bass while the other would carry the beat (remember The Doors never had a bass player, except in the studio).

He was also a man of great charisma and did literally thousands of interviews!  He was also involved in a recent 2009 documentary called When You're Strange about The Doors that used original, unseen footage of the band.

Yes, probably my favourite Doors song.  Some of his live solos were endless!
