din favoriteWhen The Music's Over - Jim Morrison in Paris
James Douglas Morrison (n* 8 decembrie 1943, Florida – † 3 iulie 1971, Paris) a fost un cantaret, compozitor si textier american, solistul vocal si liderul formatiei rock psihedelice The Doors. A studiat cinematografia la UCLA.
[modificare] ViataCand era copil familia petrecea foarte multa vreme pe drumuri datorita carierei tatalui sau, ofiter in Marina Militara. La sfasitul anilor 50 Morrison s-a stabilit in Alexandria, Virginia unde si-a incheiat si liceul. In 1964 s-a mutat pe coasta de vest, iar in 1966 a intrat la Universitatea Californiei din Los Angeles.
Pasionat de literatura si filosofie, Morrison a scris versuri sub influenta lui Arthur Rimbaud si William Blake. Pe cand era student la UCLA el a inceput sa ia diferite tipuri de narcotice,cum ar fi LSD.
In anul 1965 l-a intalnit pe Ray Manzarek si impreuna ei au format renumitul grup rock The Doors. Din trupa au mai facut parte John Densmore si Robby Krieger. Denumirea grupului provine de la un vers celebru al lui William Blake, " If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite" (Daca usile perceptiei ar fi deschise totul i-ar aparea omului ca ceea ce este, infinit). Debutul discografic si-l fac 2 ani mai tarziu cu albumul omonim, The Doors, aparut in 1967 sub egida editurii Elektra Records.
Morrison era vazut de fanii sai ca un fel de zeu sau lider spiritual; ca urmare si-a luat numele de "Lizard King" (regele soparla).
Stilul sau de viata alaturi de formatie a devenit tot mai puternic influentat de alcool si droguri. Spre sfasitul vietii devenise aproape dependent de alcool. In 1969, in urma unui chef mai lung, Morrison a aparut beat pe scena in fata a 13.000 spectatori in Coconut Grove, Florida. In timpul spectacolului si-a scos camasa pe scena si a scos degetul pe la fermoarul pantalonilor. Ca urmare a acestui gest a fost arestat sub acuzatia de exhibitionism si alcoolism. A fost condamnat la sase luni de munca silnica in ciuda faptului ca a facut apel. Morrison a murit inainte de rejudecarea cazului.
Morrison s-a insurat cu prietena sa Pamela Courson pe care o cunoscuse in 1966. Ea a fost aceea care l-a gasit mort in hotelul din Paris. Moartea sa a fost stabilita ca fiind urmare a unui atac de cord, si nu i s-a facut autopsie. Morrison a fost imormantat in cimitirul Pere Lachaise din Paris, dupa o ceremonie particulara.
Mormantul sau a devenit un loc de pelerinaj si este inca vizitat zilnic de sute de fani care lasa acolo multe amintiri, cum ar fi: bilete, graffiti, tigari, prezervative. In acelasi cimitir mai sunt imormantati Oscar Wilde, Gertrude Stein, Edith Piaf, Frederic Chopin, precum si numeroase alte celebritati .
As some of you may know, I'm a big fan of The Doors and their music. During my visit to Paris last year I decided to pay a visit to Pere Lachaise, the cemetery where Jim Morrison, the lead singer of The Doors, is buried. I had no idea what it would be like but when I got there I knew I was in for something very special.
Located on the Metro 3 or Gallieni line, Pere Lachaise covers about 118 acres. It's been there since the early 1800's and over 300,000 people are buried there. It's the kind of place that reminds you life is short and one day the music will end.
So why is Jim buried there? Jim was taking a break with his girlfriend, Pamela Courson, after completing the album L.A. Woman just a few months before. During my research, I came across some pictures which were taken a week before he died and also some other pictures taken during the recording of L.A. Woman. Jim died suddenly and under mysterious circumstances but that's what makes the story so fascinating. After all, like Jim said, people are strange.
Originally I was going to do my own voiceover, which I still may do. But during my research I came across a spoken word album by the keyboard player with The Doors, Ray Manzarek, which summed up perfectly the whole Jim Morrison Paris situation. Ray tells the story like it happened yesterday and I'm sure you'll agree it fits in nicely with the vision I shot and also the pictures that start the film.
If you do ever get to Paris, be sure to pay a visit to Pere Lachaise and all it has to offer. It may be a cemetery but it's a wonderful place to just chill out and see a part of Paris that has literally been frozen in time.
Enjoy the journey and remember when the music's over, turn out the light.
Peace and love,
