Jim Morrison was my neighbor in Laurel Canyon and I knew him and Pamela
Coursan pretty well from hanging around with Frank Zappa at the Log
Cabin and at the Country Store.

It is no coincidence that many of the Laurel Canyon musicians were
military brats - Morrison, Hendrix, Zappa, Mike Nesmith, Crosby, Stills
and Nash and Young. Nesmith won the talent contest at San Antonio
College and I knew that he had been in the Air Force. We both moved to
Los Angeles about the same time. There is a reason they were all sent
there in the late sixties. According to Dave McGowan, Jim Morrison may
or may not have died in Paris on July 3, 1971. The events of that day
remain shrouded in mystery and rumor, and the details of the story, such
as they are, have changed over the years - according to the coroner,
Morrison died of heart failure, although no autopsy was ever performed.
Go figure.
"What is known is that, on that very same day, Admiral George Stephen
Morrison delivered the keynote speech at a decommissioning ceremony for
the aircraft carrier USS Bon Homme Richard, from where, seven years
earlier, he had helped choreograph the Tonkin Gulf Incident. A few years
after Jim’s death, his common-law wife, Pamela Courson, dropped dead as
well, officially of a heroin overdose." Obviously they knew too much so
they had to be done away with. Go figure.
