When I mention the band The Doors, who is the first member to pop into your head? Of course, every one of you probably said Jim Morrison, and for good reason. Morrison’s stage persona and dark lyrical themes made him one of the most interesting frontmen of the late 1960s. But, when I ask you what their most famous song is, most of you would probably say “Light My Fire,” right? It was their first #1 single, after all. Well, would it surprise you to know that Morrison didn’t write it? Hidden behind Morrison’s oversexualized and controversial persona was a guitarist who had barely even picked up an electric guitar before joining the band. Robby Krieger, The Doors’ mysterious guitarist, is our subject, next on Forgotten Fretmasters!
