The Doors: The Soft Parade Page #5

---

born on 2-12-39, musician, organist.

Name, occupation?

- Uh, Jim.

This way, Mr. Sullivan.

They're called "The Doors." They have

the No. 1 single in the country now.

"Light Your Fire."

- "Light Your Fire?" - Yes.

Now, they're not your usual group, but

they're gonna fit in just fine.

No wonder.

"Light My Fire" is No. 1 .

So what's your room number?

- Uh, I'll talk to you later, OK?

You've got very serious hair.

- Were you pinching her butt?

What about me? - I don't want to

open up that can of worms.

Hey handsome, what can I do?

- Some of my worst mistakes have

been haircuts. Don't touch it, go away!

I like it just the way it is.

Boys!

Meet Mr. Sullivan.

- Fellows, fellows, just great!

I heard your record "Light That Fire."

- "Light Your Fire."

"Light My Fire."

- Good. Great. Fine! Just fine!

I just have one little thing,

it's a small thing, but important.

The network guys have

a problem with one of your lyrics.

"Girl we couldn't get much higher."

You can't say "higher" on network,

so they asked

if you could say instead:

"Girl, we couldn't get much better."

Can you dig that?

How about:

"Girl you couldn't bite my wire?"

I don't think

standards and practices would ...

And fellows, have a nice big smile

when you get out there.

There's no point in being sullen.

- We're kind of a sullen group, Ed.

You boys should know that

Mr. Sullivan is considering you

for four more shows. You dig?

- We dig. Just give us five minutes.

OK. Groovy!

Have a great show!

Well?

Aw, come on, John.

It's just a word, Jim.

The Stones changed

when they played here.

Why don't you change your name to ...

Sidney or Irving Manzarek?

It's just a word.

Come on. They're my words,

I don't care, let's just jam.

And now,

direct from Los Angeles, California,

The Doors!

Are we OK soundwise,

not too loud? OK.

He said it!

He said it on national TV!

I can't believe that!

What's he doing? What's that?

Oh Jesus!

Get off it! You can see his thing!

You blew it, you little sh*t!

You'll never play Sullivan again!

OK, can you

just move a step forward?

Come on, I know

you love to look at yourself.

Great!

Let's try something different.

Take your shirt off.

You take it off.

- Do you need help?

That's good!

The camera

is whatever you want it to be.

A woman you want to seduce.

A man you want to kill.

Anything you want.

That's nice.

Oh, that's great!

Do you have any idea

what these pictures can do?

One image

controls millions of people.

Where are the Doors?

- Right here! Forget the Doors.

You're the one they want.

You are the Doors. Come on!

Yeah that's good. Be ugly!

I love that.

Anything you want.

There are no restrictions here.
