Originally self-published with CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform in 2013 -- from Preface, page 12.
"In The Doors Unhinged: Jim Morrison's Legacy Goes on Trial, New York Times best-selling author and legendary Doors drummer John Densmore offers a powerful exploration of the "greed gene"--that part of the human psyche that propels us toward the accumulation of more and more wealth, even at the expense of our principles, friendships, and the well-being of society. This is the gripping account of the legal battle to control The Doors's artistic destiny. In it, Densmore looks at the conflict between his bandmates and him as they fought over the right to use The Doors's name, revealing the ways in which this struggle mirrored and reflected a much larger societal issue: that no amount of money seems to be enough for even the wealthiest people" -- Provided by publisher.
