listening to WCFL in Chicago. They were playing this song when the announcer broke in with the news that Jim Morrison had died. It was obvious it wasn’t a planned stunt. I never cared much for Morrison, though I loved many of The Doors songs because of Ray Manzarek’s keyboard work. This one is my favorite.
