Authored by Jerry Hopkins, known for his Elvis biography, and Danny Sugerman, a close associate of The Doors, this work captures the essence of a genius who soared to fame before his life spiraled out of control. Over seven years, the authors delve into Morrison's journey from his 1943 birth in Florida to his rise in Los Angeles and his enigmatic death in Paris, all set against the backdrop of the turbulent 1960s. The narrative is enriched with photographs, a discography, and film credits, providing a comprehensive look at this charismatic and troubled figure.

This biography is a compelling tribute to a brilliant man whose life was marked by both creativity and chaos. An afterword by Michael McClure adds further depth to the exploration of Morrison's legacy.
Led Zeppelin was the hottest, hardest, horniest, most hedonistic group in rock history. Their parties defined 60s and 70s excess, their concerts were long, loud and thrilling. Based on interviews and behind-the-scenes stories, here is the truth behind the genius of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and the late John Bonham.
In this unconventional chronicle of the band, Sugerman uses precedents in literature and philosophy to draw parallels between Axl Rose and Rimbaud and traces the roots of rebellion all the way to Shelley, Nietzsche, and Byron.
Джим Моррисон - певец, философ, поэт, возмутитель спокойствия - в этой книге представлен во всей своей сложности, как одержимый приверженец тьмы, который отвергал авторитеты и испытывал "границы реальности, чтобы посмотреть, что произойдет". Джим Моррисон был солистом "Doors", одной из самых популярных и неоднозначных рок-групп конца шестидесятых. Его боготворили фанаты, ненавидели власти, преследовали журналисты. Моррисон олицетворял непредсказуемый и запретный образ жизни, о котором мечтала молодежь. Книга "Никто из нас не выйдет отсюда живым" отделяет факты от домыслов о жизни и загадочной смерти Джима в Париже в 1971 году, скрупулезно описывая легендарную личность, которую одновременно восхваляли как поэта контркультуры и поносили как развратителя молодежи.
