"I
was living in this abandoned office building, sleeping on the roof. And
all of a sudden I threw away most of my notebooks that I'd been keeping
since high school and these songs just kept coming to me. It was a beautiful
hot summer and I just started hearing songs. . . I heard a whole concert
situation, with a band and singing and an audience, a large audience. Those
first five or six songs I wrote, I was just taking notes at a fantastic
rock concert that was going on inside my head. And once I had written the
songs, I had to sing them." - Jim
Morrison
