“We knew what the people wanted: the same thing the Doors wanted. Freedom.” The Doors around 1970. From left: Robby Krieger, Ray Manzarek, John Densmore and Jim Morrison. 

 Listening to Light my Fire while walking up to Country Village and Herbie Lee — must have been the summer of 1967, for I knew them in junior high school, and the Doors website lists 1967 as when it was first performed — is a very fond memory.
