دانلود کتاب Jim Morrison : friends gathered together – جیم موریسون: دوستان دور هم جمع شدند

توضیحات

Jim Morrison We know the stories, but does anyone know the real man? If you dont know where the truth ends and the fiction begins, youre not alone. Lies, myths, rumors and tall tales spread by people who didnt know him have masked Jim Morrison and clouded what he accomplished.

Fearing that the original, actual real Jim would become hopelessly lost, Frank Lisciandro, Jims friend and film collaborator, gathered together more than a dozen of Morrisons friends for a series of conversations and interviews. In the transcripts of these talks Jim Morrison is candidly brought to light by the people who knew him, who were his pals, colleagues, mentors and lovers. Jim Morrison: Friends Gathered Together confronts and sweeps away the fantasy to illuminate an extraordinary man and gifted creative artist.

A quote from the book:
‘To call him a rock star is just a total insult to him and his intelligence and his awareness and this philosophy that was inside of him. His life was a philosophy. He didnt tell people what they have to do, he just did it himself. He just put it all out there.’ Ron Alan

The conversations covered a multitude of topics and events. The people who share their stories were themselves active participants in the West Coast music scene: musicians, concert promoters, publicists and band managers. Readers will discover funny stories, secrets revealed and truths more astounding than the fabrications published during and after Morrisons life.

Another quote from the book:
I loved Jim when he would get an idea, he’d say, Uh oh, I think I’m getting a cerebral erection. And then he’d hold his hands to his head because he had a new idea for a poem or song and then laugh about it. It was the laughter that followed that was wonderful. Leon Barnard

From his first year in high school and his student days at UCLA to the formation of The Doors and his rise to fame, this book weaves an amazing tapestry of honest information about Morrison the poet, the brilliant lyricist, and the iconic singer and performer of The Doors. The book is a treat for Jims fans worldwide and for curious readers who want to know the true Jim Morrison story. The conversations also offer a unique oral history of the restless and turbulent Sixties when L.A.s Sunset Strip was the focus of a cultural renaissance and musical revolution.

The book contains more than 50 original Frank Lisciandro photographs, many never published before.

More quotes from the book:
‘Jim was totally not interested in the economic aspect of his career. I never met anybody like Jim. He was seemingly disconnected with the meaning of money. He truly had no interest in physical possessions.’ Bill Siddons

The biographers seem to have lost Jims sense of humor. I cant impress upon you enough that it was always there.He was the funniest human being I ever met. Simply that, the funniest human being I ever met. Fud Ford

‘A few weeks before he left for Paris, I organized a (touch) football game. Jim was relentless in his pursuit of my brother, who was the opposing quarterback. Jim would go diving after him and hit the ground, and get up and chase him again. I remember him going, Boy, that guys really squirmy, isnt he? I remember Jims enthusiasm that day. He just didnt quit. . Rich Linnell

‘Sometimes when I was typing his poems, Id come across a word and Id ask him, ‘What does this mean? And he would give me the history of the word. What was the antecedents of that word, epistemology. So I would have an idea what that word meant in time and space. He had that kind of knowledge. Kathy Lisciandro

ترجمه ماشینی :

جیم موریسون ما داستان ها را می دانیم، اما آیا کسی مرد واقعی را می شناسد؟ اگر ندانید حقیقت به کجا ختم می شود و داستان تخیلی کجا شروع می شود، شما تنها نیستید. دروغ‌ها، افسانه‌ها، شایعات و داستان‌های بلند منتشر شده توسط افرادی که او را نمی‌شناختند، جیم موریسون را نقاب انداخته و دستاوردهای او را مخفی کرده است.

از ترس اینکه جیم اصلی و واقعی به طرز ناامیدکننده‌ای گم شود، فرانک لیسیاندرو، دوست جیمز و همکار فیلم، بیش از دوازده نفر از دوستان موریسون را برای یک سری گفتگو و مصاحبه دور هم جمع کرد. در متن این گفتگوها، افرادی که او را می‌شناختند، یعنی دوستان، همکاران، مربیان و عاشقان جیم موریسون، صریحاً آشکار می‌شود. Jim Morrison: Friends Gathered Together با فانتزی مقابله می کند و آن را از بین می برد تا یک مرد خارق العاده و هنرمند خلاق با استعداد را روشن کند.

نقل قولی از کتاب:
گفتن او یک ستاره راک فقط یک توهین کامل به او و هوش و آگاهی او و این فلسفه ای است که در درون او وجود داشت. زندگی او یک فلسفه بود. او به مردم نگفت که چه کاری باید انجام دهند، او فقط این کار را خودش انجام داد. او فقط همه چیز را در آنجا مطرح کرد.’ رون آلن

گفتگوها موضوعات و رویدادهای زیادی را پوشش می داد. افرادی که داستان های خود را به اشتراک می گذارند، خود شرکت کنندگان فعال در صحنه موسیقی ساحل غربی بودند: نوازندگان، مروج کنسرت ها، تبلیغات گران و مدیران گروه. خوانندگان داستان‌های خنده‌دار، رازهای فاش شده و حقایقی شگفت‌انگیزتر از جعل‌های منتشر شده در طول زندگی موریسون‌ها و پس از آن پیدا خواهند کرد.
