[Moods For Mallards]

Jim Morrisson didn't age well.

I hate when they get played anywhere. That City at Night song... every time I went anywhere when I was in college. Almost as ubiquitous and irritating as the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and appealing to similar people I'd say.
Agreed that Apocalypse Now was well served by them though.

 

[Stan Bowles]

hardly the worst. I mean, The Verve existed.

Steady on there boss. Anyway the doors are fucking wank.

 

[avernus]

They had a batch of good tunes, but if you don't get into them as a young 'un, you'll probably consider them bloated, pompous shite.

I haven't listened to them in years, but i have an affection for them.

Ray Manzarek's autobiography is woeful dreck.

agreed. Manzarek is an awful knob. I went to see him about 8 years ago and the junk he came out with was unbelievable. told everyone to take acid and other such gems. some lunatic floating around heckled him and got thrown out twice.

He's a total burnt-out hippy cliché. The book is super naff, full of quasi-mystical guff about 'Good Jim' and 'Bad Jim'. Could barely finish it.

My sister got the book signed by him many moons ago in the states, and when he noticed she was from Ireland, he wrote some super cornball dedication like "Let's hope there's peace on the Emerald Isle, in our time". ha ha.

 

[Vinnie]

Are Doors obsessives called Doorks? They fucking should be.

"Am I sure?
Was Jim Morrison a wanker? Was Ravi Shankar a sitar player?

Is Van Morrison a grumpy man?"

Steve Coogan knows.

Morg loves The Doors.

[avernus]

I'm shocked to find I'm the only one here defending their honour. Shocked and appalled.

.

alot of people liked them at one stage. no, i maintained that they had some shite songs, like that middle bit of whiskey bar shit always pissed me off, shite like that. they still have a few songs which are alright. they seem to get worse, the older i get though.
and i still enjoy the film, bit unrelated. never liked ALL their stuff. just a few.

...Hows the Babylon zoo album working out for you?

Morg de-repped me for pointing out that Spiritualized are shit.

Things are falling into place now.
