Description

«J'ai toujours été attiré par tout ce qui parlait de révolte contre l'autorité. Celui qui se réconcilie avec l'autorité se met à en faire partie.» Chaman, poète maudit, sorcier des mots, James Douglas Morrison, dit Jim Morrison (1943-1971), chanteur des Doors, continue de fasciner des générations d'auditeurs et de lecteurs. Cette biographie très documentée retrace l'aventure fulgurante d'un artiste hors du commun qui réinventa le rock and roll. L'équipée sauvage de celui qu'on appelait le «Roi lézard» fut aussi celle d'un groupe, les Doors, dont les mélodies et les textes font aujourd'hui parti de l'histoire de la musique : «Riders On The Storm», «Light My Fire», «You Make Me real»... Auteur de plusieurs livres sur Jim Morrison, Jean-Yves Reuzeau travailla une dizaine d'années pour le label Elektra, celle des Doors.
