Re: OT: R.I.P. Ray Manzarek (The Doors)

One of my earliest experiences with a girl was soundtracked by The Doors. We were teenagers. I was 16, she was 15. It was a hot summer night and we were in her room, a humid, hard wood floored upper room of an old farmhouse still sitting far back amidst acres of land, scrawlings of UV paint covering the walls and the blacklight on. She put on The Doors. No intercourse, but we sure were all over each other. I don't think I'll ever forget it. Every time I hear "Break on Through", I can still see her very long bleached hair, feel her still developing chest, and smell the wonderful perfume she wore.

It's weird, the above would suggest that I'm a lot older than I actually am.

Also, without The Doors my favorite bands would not exist. Reason enough for me to love them.
