Description

40 ans après la disparition brutale du chanteur des Doors, la légende tient toujours : l'ange noir du Rock'n'Roll est mort dans sa baignoire "... " Faux ! " témoigne avec force Sam Bernett. Dans la nuit du 2 au 3 juillet 1971, Jim Morrison n'était plus accoudé au bar du Rock'n'Roll Circus... Et les WC étaient fermés de l'intérieur. Quand Sam arriva, c'était trop tard... Derrière le témoignage du créateur du temple des années rock, à Saint-Germain-des-Prés, c'est toute la ballade de Jimmy, enfant maudit des Sixties qui défile. Qui était vraiment Jim Morrison, barde et poète d'un autre temps ? Était-il habité par la haine de soi et guidé par une quête impossible en forme d'autodestruction ? Poursuivi pour " incitation à la lubricité et à la luxure " après un concert " scandale " à Miami, il avait trouvé refuge en France, en avril 1971. Trois mois plus tard, il était mort... Ce livre signe le requiem des années " Sexe, Drogue & Rock'n'Roll "...".
