Wow. I'm no Doors fan, but I think Jim Morrison is heads and tails above Lou Reed. Just the phrase 'Mr. Mojo Risin' almost does that for me. :)

He is definitely, definitely heads and tails above Lou Reed.... but he is also WAY more celebrated. I'm also talking about the Doors and not just Jim Morrison. Morrison is a figure that stems beyond the music he wrote. The celebration of the music the Doors made has benefited greatly from the lore of Morrison. Without his persona, based solely on the music, it is my opinion that they are hugely overrated. This from someone that grew up listening to them a lot.
