The Doors In 1967: From Zeroes To Heroes In Six Months Flat
Dave Thompson, Goldmine, August 2007
"I've always been attracted to ideas that were about revolt against authority. When you make your peace with authority, you become an authority. I like ideas about the breaking away or overthrowing of established order. I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos, especially activity that seems to have no meaning."
– Jim Morrison, December 1966
