This is the must have, don't miss, cannot live without book about the greatest rock and roll band ever, The Doors. This book tells the story through what was printed in the media, not from the memories of others. It is a different perspective on The Doors story that hadn't been printed before. The newspaper and magazine stories selected were conscise, to the point, and very appropriate. It was laid out to tell the story through articles from their first performance in 1966 until Jim's death in 1971. The photos in the book are excellent, some never seen before, and others old favorites. It includes everything that a Doors fan would have collected if possible in the '60's, and this is exactly what Sugerman has done. An absolute must for any fan of the Doors, any music fan, any sixties fan, or any history buff. This is the most original and truthful look at the Doors from a man who was there. Danny Sugerman's work is great and can be enjoyed many times. The best book on the best band, don't miss it! By Micheal J. Groetken Bloomington, Illinois.

I found that Danny does have the right words to some of the often misquoted lyrics. I guess its alright that Sugarman writes the book since he was such a devoted fan to Jim. I would have liked it more if it contained some rarer color pictures but remains an indispensable document since lyrics were never printed in the CDS or albums.

What else can i say you've got to buy this one! It is good to read the articles that appeared during their career they way they were learned about during the AMERICAN NIGHT. I wish that Danny would have put the dates next to the articles
