I have got the your x's copy laurie, she gave it to me! i started reading it and once i came across a website examining whether or not she could be telling the truth. the website said that the dates she said she was with jim, jim was usually actually at gigs or recording r something else. so since then i have stopped reading it, believing it to be bullshit. i wil probably finish reading it sometime.

cool keep hold of it gonna be worth money as its signed and its all proven sometime in a distant glaxy to be all true and infact that people are just trying to cover up the facts because they dont like the through of morrison as being able to have a friendship with a girl not in the doors circles ;D ;D ;D

I like the book, I feel that the Doors Magaizine article was an attack on Linda Ashcroft. The interviewer had an agenda when asking Linda questions. How about posting the sections that were edited out of the American Edition? Does she still live in CA, San Jose?

Yes I agree....the DCM piece was certainly an attack not any form of attempt to interview Ashcroft..... I think she has indeed been treated unfairly in the Doors world but that does not alter my opinion that she is a liar simply out to make a buck out of the Jim bandwagon. Not that shes alone by any means and compared to Ray she is small potatoes. But nontheless her loony rants over the Net hardly help her cause .............The Doors attract insane people like flies to shit and Ashcroft, Butler, Kenneally (who all have their band of acolytes its true) and their ilk will always be with us..........they are discredited but that will never stop people believing their tales. I for one enjoyed Butlers AD&AD book.......although I don't take it as some kind of Gospel......same goes for Manzareks fairytales. Truth and The Doors seem to be the antithesis of each other with the Myth of Morrison & The Doors far more ingrained into the psyche of fans than actual realities but thats the way its been most of the time I been a Doors fan...........the Truth is out there....but so to is the Bullshit!

Burn Down The Night by Craig Kee Strete claims to nothing but fiction. I think in the bio that Strete knew Jim and at the end of the book has an escapade that is refered to in Jim's Cemetary poem, now if Key was there I don't know, but if he wasn't he's a great writer because you feel as if you're there.
