In Amsterdam, we did our best. The power existed in every member of The Doors. We all understood that sinking into the rhythm of the music. It was invariably an incredible show.

That's perhaps one of the keys as to why The Doors played well together is that the musicians all listened to each other.

I think that's what makes The Doors special in that everybody in the band was into the same sort of thing.

The Doors were never that good as musicians. Perhaps the best we could play was cocktail jazz.

When you're glad to be alive, good ideas come. The reason good ideas don't come today is because we're all bottled up with greed and anger. We're mad.

I'm surprised the Germans would get anything wrong.

Jim wanted to be known as a poet, first and foremost.

I'm basically a cocktail jazz kind of pianist. That's what I play, you know.

Doors' songs would go through a metamorphosis. Doors songs would go through these various permutations and changes before they finally appeared on record.

No, I was playing in..let's see, it was 1963, I was playing in a jazz band in Los Angeles.

I love French food, but after a week and a half of French food, it's a little effete.

After Jim died and we decided to carry on, we signed with Elektra Records for a five-album contract and did two records.

Radio stations didn't know what to play poetry.

I think I'm a very poor piano player.

Jim could say a few words and then stop and let the music take it for five minutes and then come back and he could talk for 10 minutes.

Full length, a feature, make a feature. My feature film debut, and I get to direct a feature film.

Jim would just read and the words kinda ran together. So we would cut in between phrases and sentences to expand it to allow some musical air to go in between.

Jim treated himself to a birthday present and went into the recording studio and put down three hours worth of taped poetry and got progressively more drunk as the evening progressed.

The shaman would never do his performance or go into his shamanistic trance unless he had his band with him. The shaman and the band worked together and the musicians worked together in the same way with Morrison.

I think Jim died too early for us to complete our seven-year cycle. It was five years into it. We needed another year or two.
