The first song I remember hearing was Rider's on the Storm. I remember my older sister playing it on a cheesy fisher price record player. I also remember that the kitchen door was open and it was sunny out and there was a breeze.
The doors were the Kings of not only visual lyrics, but of that unique keyboard sound that Manzarek created.
He was the serious face of the sometimes lunacy of Jim Morrison the lizard king.
RIP Ray
Hopefully you run into Jim wherever he is.
