They are considered one of the most innovative, influential and controversial rock bands in history, primarily due to their pioneering experimentation with a great variety of musical styles and techniques and Morrison's lyrics and voice, along with his erratic stage persona and legal issues. The group is widely cited as a major representative of the era's counterculture.' (Wiki) ***'The legendary Los Angeles rock band led by charismatic singer Jim Morrison tell their own story. Jim - "They claim everyone was born but I don't recall it. Maybe I was having one of my blackouts." --- Robbie - "I hope we made a lot of people happy." --- John - "I enjoyed it for what it was."'
