Is Jim Morrison Alive?
image Most people think the musician Jim Morrison, lead singer for the Doors, died in Paris on July 3, 1971. But Gerald Pitts says that he "discovered Jim Morrison Living on a Ranch in the Pacific Northwest in the summer of 1998." According to him, Morrison is living a quiet life as an American cowboy "away from the Hollywood scene." Even though Morrison evidently engineered an elaborate death hoax to escape publicity, he agreed to appear on film for Pitts. You can buy a copy of this film for only $24.95 (shipping is extra). Pitts' site includes a video comparing the features of Jim Morrison the fifty-something cowboy to Jim Morrison the twenty-something singer. However, no matter how many times I watch the video, I just don't see any similarity.

Jim Morrison is alive. He lives on the Seychelles Islands off the coast of Africa. He has traveled back to the US numerous times over the years under an assumed name but still will answer to "Jim" if you confront him. He has changed very much over the past 30 years personally and physically. Most would not recognize him bearded and with the added weight that time has put on.

Cliff morrison is living in san pedro with his mother. they live in a house belonging to a man named floyd bocoxs. here's the reason why...
Cliff has no money. nothing. mr. bocox is under the ass-umption that cliff will be coming into tons of money soon with some non-existent record deal. He is living in this mans house for free. cliff says he will outright purchase the house as soon as he makes it. that was their deal over a year ago. he is still living there for free. NOW....if he had all his daddys money, would he be living there for free?! ps. cliffs june concert raked in about 300 people.i'm sure pretend daddy would be proud

in my hometown, there is a guy who claims to be me, it is not me but this man has fooled my parents AND my closest friends more than once, the only way to distinguish between him and me is a code word, an old memory.

if I (a regular joe) can fall foul of impersonators then so can dead/live/MIA celebrities.
Cliff Marston is not jims son, he is a wretch, if jim genuinely has any children then please let them live in peace unless they request otherwise.
i personally think that Jim is alive in our hearts and on that note he will never die.

here's why it could be jim: jim had disappeared before. jim was into confrontational theater. jim like to provoke. and jim's a smart guy. i think he would know that nobody would believe that it would be him and him and this guy could just screw around with everybody and make a little money off the want to believes and disbelievers alike. if you look at the picture of today jim with the guns and a portrait of young jim and look at the unlevel eyes, the bend in the bridge of the nose, the chin, the jawline . . . it's pretty similar. here's why it might not be jim: jim died in paris and this guy's a total liar.
i think people don't want to think of jim as some old cowboy, all ugly and old. they want him young and crazy. that is all. if it is him, he's laughing at everyone of us.

Cliff is playing at a major music awards festivity this Novemeber, and will accomplish great things before then as well. Bocox will not.

Everyone--including myself--need to move on. Jim Morrison is doing the same in heaven. Read Jacqueline Murray's book--A Tale of Two Brothers.

Peace and Love.

fellow Humans,

What I wanted to make you all understand is that you are in control of yourselves.
Since the day came when you passed thru them beef curtains and enter'd this world, you did break on thru. Sad to say you were thrown into this prisoner world planet.God will not save you, why would he? he already sent his son to die for you.
You are the god,save yourself. stand up for yourself...and never surrender.
Do not expect to ever leave this planet, nor your children, remember no one here gets out alive. I am to damm old to fight for you but thanks for listening to the great gift of thought, and then came words.

I would like to say thank Mr.Ramsterdam for his assistance in closeing his eyes and seeing into the future, it is only by this action that the unknown is known.

JDM

Ok,I never met pitts but I have been talking to him everyday and he claimed to me this is jim,so I did some investigating of my own.First of all the I called the FBI which won't do shit at all,2nd if you compare the jaw and under the lip and look at the hands there is a huge comparison. The reason he made the video is because he gave up all rights to the doors when he faked his death he does not have nothing and he said he did it for us the fans only.He has more then what you see on that web site he has footage of him singing and talking about alot of personal things 1/2 of me says I believe half still AH I don't know.But he did tell pitts he had 160 pounds of sand put in that casket and you know no one seen the body isn't it strange the doors would'nt be contacted imediately...Another thing everybody has been out there,Jim does not want the limelight anymore nor does he want the doors.So I am working on this big time and any of you are welcome to join me if we crack this case even if we can get it on national tv this is a million dollar story think about it?

Would someone out there run a Photo Recognition Program on the pictures of the early JM that we know are him and the pictures of the JM that everyone doen't think is JM from his web site. I don't have access to tis type of program or I would do it myself.

So I'm moving to LA in a few weeks. I will be taking a cross country trip. Me and my girl will be driving through Oregon on the way. We are so going to his ranch. If I actually talk to this guy, I will come back here and tell you guys about it. I have to say, hearing that guy sing along with moonlight drive (on that crap website) there is something about the way he sings the last few notes that actually reminds me a lot of Jim. Of course, I am a singer and a can do a pretty good JM, so, oh well. Next stop Oregon. BTW, I'm totally serious.

Hey Ken,
I see you're from Rockford. Are you a Good Year Pimps fan? They had songs on Mission Impossible 2 and Crazy Beautiful and are pretty established rock and rollers. I am pals with all of them, especially Hilly, GT and Tony... at least I thought I was. I desparately tried to get them to help break out this story and they turned their back on me. Rock and Roll is all about being focused. On greed.
Posted by JLizard  on  Fri Aug 01, 2008  at  11:20 PM
Hey alex at muse yeah I know the pimps they can't do nothing about nothing! There all cool guys but this is something they have no control of.If your going to Oregan Jim won't see you,Gerald Pitts will tho,I talk to gerald everyday,The farm is in Talent Or,He is a very nice guy.I did alot of looking into this and I believe it's him but everybody focuses on the young Jim they never seen the old Jim.Did you buy the video?I have one but not the one you can buy,The thing people need to think about is if this was fake he would have been arrested.And the FBI knows where he is Gerald Pitts told them being he is selling those CD"S Write me with your email so I don't have to keep getting on here.PS IT"S KERI NOT KEN

Hi,

I'm sorry to tell you all that Jim Morrison is most definately deceaced...My Mothers brother was an assistant corroner (is that correct English?) in Paris when he had died.

He was called to the appartment to insist that the decomposing body was released by his wife who had been refusing any aid or assistance. His body was covered in ice, but as soon as it was applied it melted due to the hot summer...It didnt stop his body rotting too much.

His neighbour below his appartment (Mdme Roche) complained to the landlord or the building about water coming through her ceiling and an unpleasant smell...hence the arrival of my Uncle with two Gendarmes. His corpse was eventually removed with some force...My Uncle descibed him to me as an overweight long haired man in his 50's...and was astounded....amazed that he was actually ony 27..(although the body at this time was black and bloated)

I dont understand why the myth of Jim Morrison being alive still persists when the French Authorities have detailed documentory evidince of his death and have always had it!

I only assume it is because the surviving members of the Doors want to perpetuate that myth...As for me...I've read his poetry which I think stands alone from his music...some of which I like very much...we French recognise poets and I think Rimbaud would have been very proud of Jim Morrison, but also very sad that he took his (Rimbauds) experiment, so literally.to a fatal extreme

God rest you Jim Morrison...I hope that some of you fans will find my mail helpful.

Regards,

Andrei

No Andrei,
It is not correct English. Just because you don't know how to speak English doesn't mean we should believe your nonsense about a decomposing composer.
Posted by JLizard  on  Sat Aug 02, 2008  at  07:53 PM
Hi JLizard I only commented upon what was told to me by my family...I'm sorry that you find it so rediculous and I'm also sorry that you find my English so bad. I spent some time trying to find the right idiom for international readers who might be interested in what I commented upon.

I wonder if you could comment in perfect French in response to what I said..if not then your remarks on my English grammar musst rebound on you.

Jim Morrison loved my Country and in death was connected to it , and my family..in a weird kind of way...so please dont be a racict and assume that you're right...you are not Jim Morrison because he is dead, and if he was alive then he would not be as rude as you; he was an educated man which you obviously are not.

Respond in French if you can Sir.. I repeat that I only have commented on what I have been told by a member of my family who was present in the appartment whereas I assume you were not.



Wishes

Andrei

andrei,well that is very interresting to know about your uncle but is the uncle still alive? By the way I don't think your english is bad at all I don't know why your saying that,Perhaps to me your little story sounds like the 100% truth but is your uncle alive? Only question I have is you said they removed his bloated body? From what I have read Jim was in a nailed casket in the apartment..Can you answer that?

Andrei,
Pay no attention to Jlizard he just seeks attention as I feel he is Shane Pitts,
so jlizard, piss off. fucking wanna Be
Posted by aries  on  Wed Aug 06, 2008  at  10:02 PM
I think yer feelin' somethin' else ya hoser. Just kidding. No, really, I don't want attention for myself. Just want to let those who loved Jim know that I, and many other intellegent college educated people, KNOW that Jim Morrison faked his demise in 71 and is still alive.
