The original contract was finished with L.A. Woman and then after Jim died and we decided to carry on, we signed with Elektra Records for a five album contract and we did two records on the contract and then we decided not to continue any more.

You want a showman, go see rock 'n' roll bands today. You want to have a shamanistic experience, get psychedelic, then you watch The Doors.

The Doors movie is a pack of lies. It did not make money. You want to make money in America? Tell the truth.

Music, theater, photography, all the things I was interested in all went together into film. I was always involved in theatre groups and music.

Alan Ginsberg was fabulous. The man is so filled with energy. He's 65 years old and he's just loaded with energy and charm and wit and his mind is constantly racing.

I do a lot of Samba stuff. I love the rhythms of Brazil.

I actually studied music. I sat at the piano and read music, yes.

The Doors were successful. It was Jim Morrison as the centre and the figure and the spokesman, the figurehead, but we were all into the same thing. That's why we were a band.

If Jim had come back from Paris, that might have been the next step in The Doors' career. There was just so much going on. We probably would've got very strongly into making films but never had the chance.

The power existed in every member of The Doors. We all understood that sinking into the rhythm of the music and we all tried to do that and when we all did it together it was invariably an incredible show.

In college I was involved in economics at De Paul University and then I went to UCLA to study film, So music has always been sort of a sideline for me.

We played a place called Mother Neptune's; sort of a late beatnik coffee house in Los Angeles and played jazz, sort of Horace Silva like and Jim came down occassionally.

I guarantee you, corporate takeovers will destroy this planet. This is the only one we got. You destroy this planet, and this planet is gonna turn into Mars.

If there was no black man there would be no Rock'n'Roll. The beat, the rhythms of Africa are what created Rock'n'Roll and Jazz.

We did shoot a lot of footage of The Doors, mainly off stage. We've got one sequence of The Doors sitting around playing cards. Someday we'll get around to doing something with that.

Jim had been dead for a long time and The Doors hadn't played together... some of the ferocity had gone out of us. We'd been through a lot and didn't feel a great rage inside of us.

Through all of history mankind has ingested psychedelic substances. Those substances exist to put you in touch with spirits beyond yourself, with the creator, with the creative impulse of the planet.

We needed Jim, Jim needed us, we all worked together, and when Jim was there he was the leader and we would go with him and allow him to go insane.

We were on the beach in Los Angeles communicating with the sun.

I wish people would get hip to it already, so I don't have to talk about it anymore and explain what the '60s were all about and explain psychedelic and all of that.
