À propos de cet audio
In Jim Morrison, critically acclaimed journalist Stephen Davis, author of Hammer of the Gods, unmasks Morrison's constructed personas of the Lizard King and Mr. Mojo Risin' to reveal a man of fierce intelligence whose own destructive tendencies both fueled his creative ambitions and brought about his downfall. Gathered from dozens of original interviews and investigations of Morrison's personal journals, Davis has assembled a vivid portrait of a misunderstood genius, tracing the arc of Morrison's life from his troubled youth to his international stardom, when his drug and alcohol binges, tumultuous sexual affairs, and fractious personal relationships reached a frenzied peak. For the first time, Davis is able to reconstruct Morrison's last days in Paris to solve one of the greatest mysteries in music history in a shocking final chapter.
Compelling and harrowing, intimate and revelatory, Jim Morrison is the definitive biography of the rock idol in snakeskin and leather who defined the 1960s.

Excellent read and glad I finally downloaded it
I had been considering this novel for a few months and danced around to other biographies instead, as I was unsure about the quality of this recording due to the sample. I find that Audible recordings are hit and miss when it comes to the final outcome and wished we could download a premium sample beyond the standard digital copy. The streaming sample was undoubtedly a lesser quality and did not represent the quality of the final downloaded version. So if you were on the fence with the streaming sample too, I would say the quality is far better when downloaded.
As for the novel; I was captivated by the story and I don’t have anything negative to say about it, or the narrator’s performance of it. Considering very few people alive on this planet can truly say they ever got to know the real James / “Jimmy” / “Jim” Morrison, I think this Biography produced a well written account of his 27 years of life. I was surprised to hear so much information on his life I didn’t know, much of which was restricted from legal backlash of the Morrison family protecting their family name.
There was one bit of information touched on regarding Jim’s possible children that I felt needed to be clarified further. But, maybe in another decade more may will be known if science introduces hair samples to prove he was the father.
Great novel, great story and highly recommend it for you Morrison fans.
