Full article:
Jerry Hopkins (co-manager, Love) : The club was pretty small. On entering, you went through a small courtyard and entered by a jukebox, with the bar straight ahead of you. As you made a sort of U-turn, there was this small dance floor with a few odd tables and chairs around it, and at the far end a little stage. And there, Love played pretty much nightly.
Robby Krieger (guitarist, The Doors) : I really learned to play as a member of the Doors. I just tried to sound like myself—I consciously avoided copying Chuck Berry or B.B. King because that’s what everyone was doing. I tried to come up with the right part for the song and play something that would complement Jim’s singing.
“It must have worked. I think we came up with a pretty good body of work.
