Jim Morrison Scrapbook

10/11/11| bindiya murgai
This one is a true collector's item, not only for someone who is a Morrison fan but for anyone who enjoys music and a great book. It's a treasure trove of interesting stuff popping out from little corners and pockets. It's Morrison wonderland---little pics, tickets and really cool detachable memorabilia, and truly unique pics. Totally love Jim's handwritten lyrics of "L. A. Woman, and some private letters to his family.

There are also some insightful interviews with people who hung around in his orbit. Really nice. And it does not end there. There is a CD with Jim revealing some candid moments and stories...surely not something I have seen on the racks before.

In all, a really amazing book to own and hoard. Wish there was a series with other musicians featured too...but don't think there is one yet!
