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.

As a young boy, we were removed there with teachers and so on to look apon the tombs of Wilde and other poets etc..we were never allowed to go near Jim Morrisons grave because there were too many hazzards,,,needles..syringes etc. Later I visited it and have done so many times since.
I love poetry...Rimbaud especially...but I dont find Jims resting place very peaceful at all...it is a disturbed place...Rimbauds tomb in Charleville (N/E France) has a different vibe...not the same at all...All Americans should visit both!..Paris is the most amazing city in the world...and Charleville the strangest.
I keep reading this site and it occurs to me...and to quote Rimbaud.."only I hold the key to this wild parade"...I hope I help you all and bring some conclusion to this question.

phone number to reach jim's family!
I have today given instructions to my Family lawyers to handle thes matters (they are way too big for me)...and way to big for my family!
I started writing this cos of family rumours and so on...and sow something very incredible (amazing?) has happened which even I didnt expect.It seems to me absurd that it has taken me one week to obtain evedence that no one in thirty five(?) years could find even tho some are still alive..all they had to do was ask...no wonder there is such a conspiricy theory.
I repeat..the photos I have may not be him..but they look like him very much..including some moles on neck which seem to be important in the question.
Keri, My lawyers will contact you soon; but as I hope that you understand ..they want to do this in the correct manner. They have told me that they intend to try to reopen the police report and perhaps demand an exhumation in Pere lachaise. They have already heard that an exhmation may already have happened a few years ago..but I know nothing about this.
I hope you understand that for me to release these photos would be a terrribe thing to his family, and I dont want to join the rumour circus..I was shocked when I saw them..but my Uncle insists that I do this correctly.
Bear with me for a short time Keri..I promise you if your credentials are correct you will be one of the first.

I read what I said before and realise it sounds a bit rude..{harsh?)..I dont mean that at all because reading your previous comments on this site makes me think that you are a sensitive person who cares for the Jim...and you have always been polite and kind to me despite what you may personally feel.
I dont want to be the guy that destroys myths..I think its almost as bad to Americans as the guy..Wilkes Booth? who shot Lincloln.
I dont think that we Europeans ever doubted that he was dead..that he was an astounding poet and died for whatever cause..the problem for Americans (and I have many American family) ..and freinds..is that they somehow believe that to die abroad is not quite correct!
Keri..I will do this quietly and respect my family..as I respect you and Jim Morrisons family. I think you will understand this.
Gods to you Keri

(PS please excuse the English..I had to write this quickly

I spoke to a member of the Morrison family yesturday they do not want to see your pictures I have no reason to lie.To them Jim is dead and they do not want nothing to do with anything,I found out that guy in Oregan could knock on there door with a needle and say I need to do DNA and they won't.They will not speak to you and they do not want to see them period..The way they act is weird but being there is 4 guys on u-tube claiming to be him can you blame them,They think doing a DNA test is rediculous they know there son is dead,Well to me they must know he is alive and they are keeping quiet because a man stands up and says I am your son lets do a DNA test that is kind of suspicous! I am doing an investigation and here soon I am going to have the doors and the Morrison's all in one big court room! They are hiding something BIG TIME!
You say you walked in paris with jim,
Who are you,You are really a funny guy,I have been to multiple sites and seen you write about how you believe the guy in Oregan is Jim Morrison.
Who are you,You even put Utube video's up for Rodeo west,Again who are you? You got something to say because andreii got those pictures,Why would you run your mouth about that,Oh I know because you think the guy in Oregan is Jim! Come on Jlizard whats your deal be real with us you come off in secret stop talking to us if you can't even say who you are!
I'm just a Jim Morrison fan and not any kind of celebrity. Nor will I ever be. I did about 2 looooooong years time for Rodeoswest, Inc. because of my sincere appreciation of what Gerald Pitts did to break this story out. I distributed a couple dozen Discovery videos around the world, been on the Chicago MANCOW talk show for an entire day, been banned from the DOORS websites, gotten a video to Billy Idol's manager Carol, and have talked to Cliff Morrison.
Gerald and I had a business falling out so I'm out of the loop with rodeoswest and that's fine. I am still indebted to him in gratitude. I am disgusted with how people can view his tape which has ACTUAL FOOTAGE OF JIM IN IT, talk to him for hours, regurgitate everything he has taught them and then mock ridicule him. Especially people from major cities that are not sophisticated enough to have a university or a higher center of learning.
Keri..this is probably my last post because I didnt enter this debate to argue if Jim Morrison was alive or deads. Untill I started I didnt know it was such a ..hmm hot topical subject. I merely asked my Uncle...well I've said this all before and dont wish to repeat.
If the Morrison famili do not want photos then that must be their choice Keri...I suggest to you that that perhaps they have mourned their son for over a quarter of a centuary...and if that is their wish...then those photos will return to my Uncles cabinet and will never be seen until his decease..if ever.
Keri..I come from a quite wealth family and wished no gain from this..I just thoughted I coluld lay some ghosts down.
As for you Lizard...you fraud, you ill mannered man...where once did I seek rerward? where once did I seek to gain in these mails...If you knew him as you say then how come his poetry did not inspire your schoolboy pathetic lines...you idiot...stop insulting someone like Keri...who at least beleives a thing truthefully instead of being a pathetic nothing like you. Keri Dont let yourself be upset by this hick..he obviously has little education, and less manners.
Regards Andreii
I was just about to leave the site when I read again what you have said..I have said and what lizard has said...
Its bizare because it seems to me that most agreee on either of two points..
1)Jim is alive
2)Jim is dead
You and Lizard thing both agree he's alive! so stop the argue...Lizard..be more polite then maybe you will have more respect from people. Keri..dont get upset bt his rantings dressed in faux poetry..."extending pencil"..I ask you! how rediculous..assinine rubbish.
My solicitors will continue to try to contact the family of Jim Morrison to see how they wish these photos to be handled...if they wish them to be destroyed then they will be..totally. It is my Uncles instruction.
Lizzard...If you want to talk about uneducated cities...well let me inform you that Paris had a University from about 250AD which I suggest is many centuries from whatever ill informed institution that you attended...if any.
Andreii
What's it to you if we discuss this forever? There is a simple solution to your problem DONT READ IT! You are not forced to, you know.
Rhiannon
NO! We do no choose to stop this "nonsense", I believe Canada is a free country just like the USA, we can discuss what we want no matter how far-fetched it may seem to others, with the emphasis on discussion - the exchanging of other people's ideas, it doesnt mean that every single person on here subscribes to and believes wholeheartedly in this discussion especially the more insulting ones and ignorant ones. Why dont you stop reading this or if you must take whatever "chill pill" you need to before you do.
Rhiannon
HELL YEAH TELL EM!
Now if you do see this video I will tell you what to look for ok so you don't think I am nuts...
In the beginning of the video you see a chic next to her you see a balloon that says 35 look to the right of the balloon over by the wall its Jim,and up against the brick wall you see an indians face.
Now at the end of the clip you will see a concrete doorway stop and look at the top of the doorway,if you don't see it jim don't want you to see him,
First to JLizard,I understand you put alot of time into this whole thing with Gerald Pitts and did your research,Well I got more research done in 1 month than you did in 2 years only because I have the ability,No I am not cutting you down or anything,no I am not being rude so just wait,Ok I believed so much like your self it was really him,gerald has not seen him in 8 years,his name is John not jim and he did 5 years in prison,Did you know that,Geralds main concern is to sell the video's
John is gone! No one is going to buy them,He would be better off filming Jims son atleast he is alive today,Gerald is a really nice guy,But before I leap I look where I am leaping...I am becoming very close to jim's son we talk everyday,
He wants me to come out to LA..He sounds just like his father I feel I am talking to Jim......Jim is dead,1000% sure he really is gone,
So I no longer will debate the fact this john guy in Oregon is Jim he is not Jim....And I found out the truth about Jim, he is in paris in that plot he is gone.....So Jlizard if you want to make good use of your time me and you can write abook together on the whole story of this guy in Oregan and how he said he was jim!
Peace Out while I go see if I can spot Jim at the local mall with Elvis
Rhiannon
who are you talking to exactly,you got your first laugh of the day,not to be mean but if this is your first laugh you must be kinda lonely,
I haden't intended to comment on these pages again but I looked just to see if Lizard had picked any holes in my prior statements. (which as I have already comment on..is in the hands of family lawyers.
I was surprised to see that Lizard did not comment...and more amazed to see continuing attacks on both Keri and Aries...both of whom are opposed to eachother as to whether Morrison is alive or not.
As I said before, I have no positive evedance...just three photographs of what may or not be a dead Jim Morrison. I can understand debate over this issue but when comments become cynical and sort of nasty like Rhiannons are...then it sort of defeats the object does it not?
Rhiannon of course you may enter this debate..it is a free world after all....but please dessist from using expletives such as "Oohhhhnoooo" as it is meaningless with no basis in any modern language that I know of and is only used in the context that you used it,as a kind humilliating 'put down!' to Keri...whom I do not think deserves exposure to bad manners!
Keri..My Uncles lawyers want to talk to you; if you have contact address with regard to Jim Morrison estate. They have contact the U.S Embassay in Paris who could not help...all they wish to do is send original photos including my Uncles hand wrote report to the family...for them to do as they want....destroy or whatever! So if you dont mind I will give them your mail address.
I'm sorry all about my aweful English..if I had more time then it would read better...I wish you all a good night, its twenty to one in the morning here and I must to bed for the mornings work.And please everone!..be polite to eachother in dissagrements, otherwise it is just a fisticuffs...a fight..a brawl!
Love
Andreii
Please don't forget about me I want to see them to
yes the morrison's will destroy them,of course thats why I want to see them because I will know if it is Jim or not,I will very easily! Take a copy and email me one its not the original picture anyway,email me the copy not the photo,And yes the attorneys can reach me and I will put them in contact with jim's son or dad!
I will contact my Uncles lawyers tomorrow to see what can be done with regard to your request.
I must tell you that my Uncle is very old fashioned in these situation and still very reluctant to release anything impropper...(not right?) to anyone other than the registered next of kin (I think you say).
My view is this...if at all possible..I think these photoes that I have should be shown to public gaze, because I think..and I have looked at them for days and days now...that they are of Jim Morrison..I am not a liar and my Uncle certainly isn't!...he most certainly does not wish fame for a dead guy who he didn't even know was famous until a few weeks ago.
Keri..be calm.. (I mean by this to have patience)I am proceeding in the best way that I know how to. My Uncles lawyers have had no success until now as I said with contacting the Morrison family..and while they dont doubt that Cliff Morrison is perhaps his son (I dont doubt it Keri)..he is not yet next of kin...legally speaking...Do you see our quandry?
My family dont want to seem like grave diggers...we are in no need of money even although I know the value of what these photos probably are.
Its not me Keri...I want to release them to the fans...but my Uncle (right now) does not permit..and I must respect him.
Sweet dreams from the magical mountains between France and Spain...the magnificent Pyrenees!
A bientot! (local dialect)
Andreii
so thank you rhiannon 😉
Farewell!
Rhiannon
We in France do not wish to contribute to weird conspiricy theory..we always seek truth and always do. A few weeks ago I contacted a relative of mine about someone quite fameous. My family DONT want to join any mrdia chaos...My family dont want anything to do with the Jim Morrison estate.
They will lodge the photos in a local Mayors office somewhere in Paris and if familly wishes to see then it is their decision.
Keri, I suggest to let this happen..Let Jim die as those doors guys dont seem to want to...Maybe I've taken copies of those photos..If anyone is still alive who saw him when dead...please explain what those (what looks like felt tip marks) on his forehead, are..They confuse me as they have no meaning. If anyone alive can explain..then I perhaps will break my oath to the family.To my family

Rock legend Jim Morrison may be alive and living in the Seychelles, according to his former Doors bandmate Ray Manzarek.
The Doors keyboardist admits he became suspicious after Morrison died as the enigmatic singer had discussed the possibility of faking his own death and going into hiding abroad.
In 1971, a year after the alleged discussion, Morrison was found dead in his Paris, France apartment after reportedly suffering a heart attack after a drug binge.
And the bizarre circumstances of the tragic incident have led to continued speculation about whether the iconic rocker is still alive.
Manzarek tells Britain's Daily Mail newspaper, "I often wonder if his death has been an elaborate charade. Jim was a restless soul, always looking for something else in his life, and even six years of success - and excess - with The Doors hadn't been enough for him. A year earlier, he had shown me a brochure for the Seychelles and said, 'Wouldn't this be the perfect place to escape to if everyone believed you were dead?'. At the time, I never thought anything of it."
I understand that.....But.......I asked you to take copies for I can see myself,If you can't tell who it is why would I beable too ,But I have studied his eyes,hands,fingers teeth,and eye brows,I would know and if I think it is him then you can have your attorneys contact the morrisons,No attorney of yours ever emailed me either?????So if these copies are in your hands email me one so I can see for myself.I want to know if it is jim or not.I am writing a book on him being alive so a picture of him dead would definately make me stop writing this book! So send em my way today! .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
Thanks! Keri
Who are you? You knew jim personelly huh?
Well you write like you are a writer or in news of some sort? No one in there right mind would believe he is dead...I did alot of match ups of this guy in Oregon and if you really new Jim please email me,[email protected] If would be great because I am looking for someone who knew Jim personelly. Keri
The following report is a must read for the people who seek the truth!
"Jim Morrison Ceremony"
...Exploring The Shaman Possession...
By Adriana Rubio
To begin with, Author Adriana Rubio is a Freelance Investigative Journalist and, as such, wants you to know that many of what it is reported by some media people as true facts, rarely reflect the accuracy of such affirmations. In most cases they want people watch, read and listen to what THEY want by posting or giving the news the way THEY want people to know, so we just believe anything other than what it has been told without taking into account that we have the right to ask questions!
The events that surrounded Jim Morrison death in Paris back in July 1971 are as hard to believe as he is alive in the Pacific Northwest. Additionally, Chapter 7 from the "Jim Morrison Ceremony" book is still upsetting people. There's something wrong here and that is what encouraged Journalist Adriana Rubio to search for evidence to reveal the truth once and for all whether the Oregon Cowboy is the real Jim Morrison or not.
We want to make clear that in ANY way Journalist Adriana Rubio affirms that the Oregon Cowboy as well as the claims of Gerald Pitts from rodeoswest.com are true. She just found a big puzzle full of irregularities and lies where many pieces seemed to be missed.
http://www.mailonsunday.co.uk/jim
Even though Journalist/Author Adriana Rubio has worked on this completely alone, during the course of a three years investigation, she asked for help to some American Journalists and well known published authors who wrote about Jim Morrison. Many of these ones were very disrespectful and even one of them laughed at her over the telephone! We believe they misunderstood the course of the investigation since many of them are used to inform people the way we explained above. Whatever the reasons are for them to act that way, Journalist/Author Adriana Rubio didn't give up. She is working on what we currently call "The Jim Morrison Manual Case".
Adriana Rubio has copyrighted the whole investigation in her name since she has worked on her own with no partners, affiliates or members of any media group. Among many things done during the investigation process, Rubio interviewed a man called Gerald Pitts from rodeoswest.com for the
Within the plains of life I grasp in my hand,
Will the war of greed, religion, seeking the taste of oil, a fossil that has death written, scribed, and chiselled into a freedom a forgotten yesterday that returns death for today.
STOP.
Hear the cries from the babies, women, and men.
Your family and mine,
We follow a word, chase a rhyme, to find another lie.
Baited hatred for the poor to feed,
Not to succeed or exceed,
But to reach a boil point
Your verse is superb..I love your short poem!especially such expressions as " baited hatred for the poor to feed"...sublime stuff..I suspect in French it would be lyrical...in English it is strong..strong verse.
Have you any more Mark? I guess you are a lover of Rimbaud as I am and I'm sure Morrison would have loved what I just read..I just love poetry full stop. Continue Mark..I loved it.
Keri, God bless you..I understand you want to see those pictures but they are not in my hands now. My family lawyers have found a connection to Morrison estate and will present them for their consideration only. I wish I could help with your book I really do.
But all along my Uncle has been very insisting on the right of privacy..which is very important in the USA yes?
Goodnight all..Mark keep writing ok?...Keri I wish I could do more to help you.
Andreii
Personaly i dont believe this can happen within international law...and whatever Americans think (Excuse me for this) the world does not neccessarily follow. I believe I can publish photos without consent of a family that refuses to examine evidences.
I will consult my family lawer...and if I do not hear from the Morrison estate by a week of this day..I will release this story to "Paris Match" along with photos...
Keri I will not have my family seem like liars, so please persuade the Morrison to accept these photos as that is all my family want now.They dont want money and they're really (pissed?) ..upset for me debating this..Keri you know these folks..help me please.
Goodnight all. The Pope is only a few weeks away from near my home...I pray for you all..Goodnight
Andreii Charpentier
I was re reading your earlier comments about exhumation of corpses within the precinct of Pere Lachaise...It is totally possible with an application to the local Mairie (Mayor)
Despite what others has said, the Parish Council in charge of that Cemetary would be delighted if Jim Morrisins remains were removed...the site is filth and other tombs..graves near bye are grafittied and spoilt...It is not an historical site as some suggest...but one of filth and degredation...the community of Parisians dont need that!...we have Hugo, Balzac, Piaf, Wilde etc etc!...Paris will not go to waste if Jim Morrison remains are removed to his Birth Country..We are proud that he is there...but if he has to go!!...so what? His family should take care of him...alive or dead anyway.
Keri...If you have reasonable cause to have the grave of Jim Morrison exhumed then I can help...although I am amazed noone has done this thing before. The Morrison family have no right of privacy under law francais...in fact the corpse is public property...rather like a statue...or a relic of some kind.
Personally I dont have time to do these things...maybe you do...but if you come to Paris, I will help any way possible. I just want to give the Morrisons a chance first.

The Doors
No I never meet Jim Morrison or know him, I wish I had the honour to meet him, but i was only 7 years old when he died in 71. I also don't know if he is alive somewhere. Just doing my reserch on the net. All I did was copy and paste. I also don't know Adriana Rubio, but I'm very impressed about her work and that's why I passed it on here.
You know
Tell all the people that you see,
Follow me, follow me down.....
That means Jims a grandfather!!hahahaha hard to imagine. The lizard king a papa.
I broke the case on that Gerald Pitts deal.....
Jim Morrison of the Doors is not living in Oregon and I believe if he is alive he is relaxing and writing,HOW I FOUND OUT.....JIM IN OREGON IS BILL LOYER! He has been in prison also he had a DUI he married this Marsha lady but also divorced her,they said (LITTLE JIMMY) was his son,his name is james but he is Marsha's son and he is 25.They bought that ranch in 1988 and the best part is JIM _BILL was born in 1950.So he is 59.Our Jim was born in 1943 big difference.I called the court house in Jackson County OR. I had a girl looking at all there stuff it was pretty cool.That was pretty easy I must say.Now the funny thing is if he wanted to he could of made up a fake name and a fake birth date according to the clerks office,So I have a choice to have a judge in Oregon court order him and andy morrison to do a DNA test maybe this will get this guy to tell the truth,Someone put on here that some guy named chris bangs is Jims son and he had a baby.I thought really let me take a look at this,Well this guy does look like jim but of course he has a Doors tribute band.GO FIGURE......People are fricking out of there minds.I am starting up a band I am calling it BOT BREAK ON THROUGH as his daughter I will make millions.....LOL..Another thing that caught my attention on this pitts deal was our jim hated snakes he loved lizards,but was deathly afraid of snakes this guy claiming to be him had a whole tank full of them in his living room!
