Peaceful journeys to Mr. Manzarek, the cornerstone and anchor of the Doors sound.

Ray Manzarek was one of the finest rock musicians to walk the planet. When I was younger, I was caught up in the whole Jim Morrison mystique. Then I graduated from middle school. But what has kept me a fan of The Doors into adulthood was the musical interplay between Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore. Those three are/were superlative musicians. RIP Ray Manzarek.

Charlie Crist became a democrat (as have all non nazis). So he wasn't much of a republican to begin with.

Overrated band with a mumbling lead singer. Ray Manzarek 's musical talent cannot be denied, but other than him, I think The Doors were one trick ponies surrounded by way too much hype.

Same David as above anyways the idea that the 60s was worse then the 50s is some hot contrarian take that really doeesn't make sense.
