Fact #136683

When:

Short story:

After a Rick And The Ravens recording session at World Pacific Jazz studios, Los Angeles, California, USA, that group falls apart. With the addition of guitarist Robby Krieger, they evolve into The Doors.

Robby Krieger : Before The Doors I used to play at coffee-houses and I played Bob Dylan songs. I also played with a strange band called The Back Bay Chamberpot Terriers. When I got interested in Indian sitar music I met John Densmore in a Maharishi Meditation seminar, who was already playing with The Doors at that time.

A few weeks later he came over to my house with Jim Morrison and we played and sang for a couple of hours. That was the kick for me. They needed a guitar player and they asked me to join them. I was a bit skeptical at the beginning but after a few sessions and gigs I knew The Doors would make it.
