Bob Chorush & Jim Morrison Interview
Recording Date: Early December - 1970
Interview Location: Various Locations - Los Angeles
Publication: Los Angeles Free Press - January 15th - 1971
This interview by Bob Chorush was recorded in early December, 1970 in various locations throughout Los Angeles. Elektra Records asked Bob repetitively to conduct an interview with Jim Morrison as he liked the articles written about him in the Los Angeles Free Press. Bob was not thrilled at the idea, and Jim had a "horrible reputation in LA for acting like a drunk jerk". The original article titled 'The Lizard King reforms: taking the snake and wearing it' is drafted over the holidays and submitted to the Free Press after New Year's and published on January 15th, 1971. The original interview tapes are given away following the publication of the article.
note
Jim shares a lot of interesting information and is more conversational than in earlier interviews. Also heard on the tape are photographer Andy Kent and the Elektra publicity rep who set up the interview, Pat Faralla. Regarding the date: The article this tape originates from was printed on January 15, 1971. As a result, it was long believed the interview dated from early 1971. However, Chorush recently stated in an email that he remembered conducting the interview in early December 1970. Also, during the interview, Jim asks if the movie "Gimme Shelter" had been released yet, to which Chorush says he isn't sure but thinks it will be coming out soon. The movie originally premiered on December 6, 1970 across the country. This all adds up to a possible date in the first week of December for the interview, a month earlier than previously thought.
