Synopsis

Episode image for Jim Morrison

Suzi Quatro travels from California to Paris to look for the real Jim Morrison, the man behind the image. Contributors include Doors keyboard player Ray Manzarek; Jim's friends Alice Cooper and Paul Ferrara; current Doors manager Jeff Jampol; and record producer Bruce Botnick, the last man to work with Morrison in the studio.

The Doors singer and lyricist died at the age of 27 [the same age as Janis Joplin and Amy Winehouse - who both feature on Radio 2 this week] and is buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery, a popular destination for rock-n-roll pilgrims.
