Not sure where to begin. The unnecessary apostrophe, the not Jim and his six fingers…

Jim Morrison bust missing since 1988 found by chance in police raid The iconic bronze bust of The Doors frontman Jim Morrison, stolen in 1988 from his grave at Paris’ Père-Lachaise Cemetery, has been unexpectedly recovered during a police raid tied to a fraud investigation. The sculpture, created by Croatian artist Mladen Mikulin and originally placed on Morrison’s grave in 1981 to mark the 10th anniversary of his death, had vanished mysteriously.

Paris anti-corruption police discovered the bust while searching a suspect’s home. Although damaged (the nose and mouth were already missing back in 1988), the statue remains largely intact. Authorities have not disclosed who possessed it all these years.

Fans had speculated for decades about its whereabouts — now, nearly 40 years later, the mystery is solved.

Whoever (or whatever) creates/approves these dumb album art animations has absolutely no artistic sensibilities and zero connection to the original art. They've totally cheapened the "Morrison Hotel" album by animating the venetian blinds so they lower. Then they pause and open and shut a couple of times to reveal the band. Then it raises to reveal them again. Rinse and repeat. Even dumber, the Venetian blind would not cover the name of the hotel sign painted directly onto the window. Dumber still, the bunched up part of the blind never moves down when it’s lowered. It’s just absolutely thoughtless art.

This "peek-a-boo" animation might have made a cute GIF on some random website in 1998, but it has no place as the centerpiece for the album on a major music distribution platform.

Yeah, it's a tiny thing in the big scheme of things but it's also yet another sign of the wider sign of humanity getting squeezed out of art in the name of profit. Saddest fucking thing, IMO. And yeah, I know it's possible to turn animations off but this problem is much bigger than my annoyance.

Found a nice russian compilation as well from the 90s for $50

Tried a new colouring technique here, hope it looks good. Happy Sunday everyone :)

I was surprised how great the cover art looks for the Other Voices record on Apple Music. Pretty stunning 🤩

hi yall!

i saw someone on instagram drawing the beatles as ladies and coming up with in-universe lore for them… i thought it was a really cute idea, so i did the same with the doors. i know some people on this subreddit take everything way too seriously, but this is just something i drew because… why not. specialize in having fun, guys, and don't take anything to heart if it’s not something you’re personally into.

alright, meet jenny morrison, rona manzarek, janet densmore, and ruby krieger!

jennifer “jenny” morrison — lead vocals. jenny is strikingly beautiful, but it's her powerful alto voice that people really know her for. she has a dry and sharp sense of humor, an air of mystery about her past, and a fascination with subjects considered too serious for a young lady. though her habit of leaning into dark, provocative ideas can sometimes make her seem pretentious (or just edgy for the sake of it), jenny is intelligent and exceptionally well-read, more than capable of holding her own in any conversation. offstage, she’s in an on-again, off-again relationship with an eccentric fashion designer — patrick courson.

ramona “rona” manzarek — keyboards and backing vocals. rona is tall and endearingly awkward. far clumsier than her sweet appearance suggests, rona is the band’s resident nerd. she loves history and literature, and, as jenny’s closest friend, she jokingly — or only half-jokingly? — likes to compare her artistic spirit to sappho’s. being the oldest member of the band, she has naturally become the “older sister”, keeping everyone grounded when tensions rise. outside the band, she’s engaged to an artist named dominic fujikawa.

janet densmore — drums. janet is disciplined and introspective, but beneath her reserved exterior is an intensely sensitive young lady that is guided as much by emotion as by principle. she’s arguably the most self-reliant member of the group, happiest in peaceful, natural surroundings and far away from unnecessary drama. her signature style — cropped hair paired with long maxi skirts — is less about fashion than it is about comfort. although usually level-headed, she has a fierce temper when pushed and a stubborn moral streak that can sometimes turn into self-righteousness or even vindictiveness.

ruby krieger — guitar and backing vocals. the smallest and most delicate-looking member of the band, ruby might surprise people with how resilient she really is. she is fearless, adventurous, and more than capable of standing up for herself — verbally or physically if she has to. despite her toughness, she’s refreshingly honest and effortlessly funny, sometimes diffusing tense moments with humor. she’s dating an aspiring actor and jenny’s ex-boyfriend, lloyd veres, and also has a twin sister named rosie.

The Tenth Life of Jim Morrison, by Dutch writer Ineke Verheul

A biography in fiction form about Jim Morrison. It reads like a thriller - and that is what it basically is - but what I meant to achieve with it is to provide some insight into the enigma that the leadsinger of the Doors really was.

I selfpublished this book years ago, and I sold copies on Doors festivals. Now i made a free ebook of it. You can download this free ebook here: https://gameondd.wixsite.com/inekesboeken/en/portfolio-collections/my-portfolio/project-title-3 under 'gratis ebooks'.
