Nice try; but that's Eric Burdon of The Animals.

Fair enough.
Raging alcoholic frontman.
Pretty good Fender Rhodes player.
And 2 below average (for professionals) musicians.

Maybe he was Jim Morrison because of his poetry?


It got him into some gals' britches. Did the same for me a few times too. Don't knock poetry until you've tried it!

Or is it just hype because he is well, Jim Morrison?
If you read his book of poems you would know. He was a genius.
