Interesting.
Interesting, okay.
I'm curious, you mentioned the magic word right as we went into the Bee Gees film, you said something about the doors.
What is the favorite song that you have?
Crystal Ship.
It just so happens that that's what they're going to do, so that makes a nice introduction.
It does.
So ladies and gentlemen, would you please greet The Doors!

[F] Thank you.

Thank you, John.
My name is Jim Morrison.
Jim, thank you.
Ray Manzarek.
Ray, let me start with you in a question if I may.
How do you characterize your music?
Does it have a name?
Well, it's impossible really to put a label on it because of where we are in the music.
Being on the inside, you're only of the music and all categories have to come from [Eb] the outside.
So someone else is going to have to say what our music is rather than us because [Gb] we
Too much in it at the moment.
Now, a lot of people seem to think you're from San Francisco.
Is that true?
No, actually we got together in LA.
We play in San Francisco a lot.
That's the explanation of why you have that association.
Why is so much happening in San Francisco?
You figured it out yet?
The West is the best.
All right, fair enough.
You sold many, many albums before you sold a single record.
It's a phenomenal record success all around, the album and the single.
How long did it take you to make that first album?
About a month.
That's a relatively short time in this day and age, isn't it?
Yeah.
[A] We're in the middle of our [Ab] second album now, [B] [Gb] trying to top the first one.
You told me though that it was going to
You're here to accumulate everything and put it all together.
We leap up here, future plans.
Somebody mentioned you're going somewhere.
Yeah, we're going to go to England and our new album should be out in September.
Have you selected a name for the album yet, Jack?
I think it's going to be Strange Days.
Fair enough.
Why don't you make yourself comfortable up here and we'll do the thing that set the whole music business on fire.
Ladies and gentlemen, again, The Doors.
