Jim Morrison was born 12-8-43. He died mysteriously in Paris on July 3rd, 1971 at 27. He was the rebellious son of a naval officer to this day is still one of rock's iconic figures. He sang all and wrote many of The Doors' songs. Known as the"The Lizard King" and Mr. Mojo Risin' Jim was famous for his intense live performances and run-ins with police, including an obscenity charge in Miami. One of my favorite displays at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland is his cub scout uniform.
