The atmosphere of the 60’s in California is definitely debatably depending on collaborative opinions, but it cannot be denied that the vicious riots and overwhelming desire for true freedom created an unforgettable two decades. The state of California is one state in particular that is thick with history and culture especially during the 1960’s and 70’s. California was the one of the focal points of angry youth, rapidly changing society and best of all a great American figure named Jim Morrison... born James Douglas Morrison on December 8th, 1943 in Melbourne, Florida to a war man father

The man and the band that simply asked what is your freedom? Jim Morrison became a part of the journey toward knowledge and the spiritual and mental enlightenment of young minds. Examples are the intuitive wording of songs like Yes, the River knows (1968) that calls upon a direct connection with nature. Another is Ghost Song (1978) where Morrison’s poetry of An American Prayer was released and his vocals are aided with a new type of rhythm that fallows the earthly lyrics about the universe and beyond. But, only a small portion of society during this decade took away these gifts and gems with them into their older age and into the modern times of today. And can only be found in these old souls.
