Interview with Jim Morrison's father and sister

Kind of puts to rest any of the notions that beatlies had about Jim and his
dad being in cahoots with each other, imo.

In what way?

Considering Morrison's father was involved in the execution of the Gulf of Tonkin event I'm not so sure his word should be taken without due skepticism.

This video proved nothing regarding Jim Morrison.

What happened to Beatlies by the way, does anyone know if he still posts on doppels or any other forums?

Of course not Duncan.

Moon was the longest 80-odd minutes I've ever spent watching a film. Dire and uninspiring.

I don't know what became of beatlies, but I miss his input here.

I'm inclined to think that the video unequivocally shows Jim's father as clueless,
whether or not his word should be taken with skepticism. I was in the navy
incidentally, and had a Top Secret clearance to boot, and I can guarantee you
that anything that comes out of the mouth of the top brass should
be taken with skepticism; however the video shows that Jim's father
wouldn't know 'hip' if it bit him, imo, and he certainly had no role in what ended
up in The Doors' music. Of that I am certain.

I see. I would agree that he wouldn't have had any input into The Doors music. It's also enitrely possible that the information he has regarding his sons 'work' after The Doors formed and came to stardom is reliatively limited. Though I would imagine he'd have a vague notion of the possibility of Jim's possible 'agent provocateur' acitivities, even if it was just in a hazy connect-the-dots kind of a way.

OK. I see what you're saying.
Still not sure that there's anything there tho.
