Really? The Doors are still being praised
by music critics. Their albums still make
best of rock lists.
The Doors were made up of three incredibly talented musicians ... and Jim Morrison, a drunken weirdo who made up for his lack of talent with his good looks. If Morrison had been ten times as talented but looked like Jack Elam, no one would have ever heard of him. He was rock and roll's first himbo.

Well then, you've never heard of Joe Cocker,
Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, Jack Black and other
"ugly men" of Rock.
And you are wrong. Elvis Presley was Rock's
first "himbo".

Cocker, Mick, Iggy, and Elvis were all extremely talented. Even Jack Black is talented in his own way. The Ramones never won a beauty contest either.
Morrison was a mediocre-at-best vocalist, his lyrics were incoherence masquerading as depth, and he was a narcissistic weirdo and a drunk. But hey, the girls found him pretty, so now he's a star. That said, even I will admit that "L.A. Woman" is a truly great rock and roll song. But mostly due to the other three guys in the band.

That organ player needs to chill...
Weird though, how Jim Morrison's father was a navy commander involved in the false flag that started the Vietnam War...
"Did you know that LSD and hippies were invented by the CIA in the 1960s? No? Well, the idea was to hook kids on sex, drugs and rock & roll (hey, it worked!), so they would not overthrow the military industrial complex. Accomplices in this diabolical scheme were, in England, the Beatles and, in America, Jim Morrison, Frank Zappa and other residents of Laurel Canyon in L.A. Joseph Flatley dove down this conspiracy rabbit hole to find out how this happened…"

I have no idea if any of that is true or not. But I do know that Morrison was a drunken buffoon undeserving of his fame.
