(Book). It has been over 40 years since the untimely death of L.A.'s mystic and rock's Dionysus, Jim Morrison, yet the Doors have consistently inspired new generations of fans worldwide ever since. Highlighting one of the most influential, original, and outrageous American bands of the 1960s, The Doors FAQ is a dynamic, unorthodox exploration of this remarkable band and its enigmatic lead singer. Drawing upon unique sources, Rich Weidman digs deep and serves up fresh perspective on the music, from the garage to the hits to the outtakes; and on the band's members, from their roots, influences, and key industry partners to their rare talents, personal foibles, love affairs, and arrests. This volume also details every studio album and live recording, all the highs and lows of the Doors in concert (including the notorious 1969 Miami concert), Morrison's 40-day trial, and the death of the "Lizard King" in Paris in 1971, as well as post-Morrison milestones. Unlike the straightforward narratives of other Doors biographies, this inventive, ceremonious biographical collage leaves no stone unturned, covering the band both with Morrison and post-Morrison, including the 2010 When You're Strange documentary and the recent pardon of Morrison by the State of Florida for the Miami concert. Countless rare images from album art to ticket stubs to posters accompany the text, in this dazzling edition of solid rock scholarship.
THIS is my first book, or attempt at a book. It comes from my love of writing and the use of words and the different forums they are used in... like the dialogue in a movie script and the impact it can have on the audience when the main character shares a secret that dramatically changes the direction of the movie...or your favorite song, where it feels like those lyrics were what you wanted to say, and the singer is singing to you. These are some of the ways words have spoken to me. I have a great appreciation for music and the history of the bands and artists that play it. I have also loved the little stories and nuggets that accompany the making of an album...or how a song was arrived at or what it was inspired by. So this book is a collection of short stories about bands and their songs, names of bands and other odds and ends that have popped into my head over the years. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it --- and always remember to keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A memoir of will, success, and the luck we make—from the founder and CEO of Klutch Sports Group and one of the most influential figures in the multibillion-dollar sports industry “One of the greatest stories of growing up in America’s ghettos and overcoming adversity.”—Jay-Z “The minute I met Rich, I knew he was different.”—LeBron James, from the Foreword A BET BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR There’s a story about Rich Paul that everyone knows: A twenty-one-year-old kid from Cleveland who sells sports jerseys out of his car meets a high school basketball phenom named LeBron James at an airport—the two become friends and forge a decades-long partnership that reinvents the business of sports. That random meeting might seem like the lucky break that changed Paul’s life. But a moment of good fortune means nothing without the struggle that gets you there. And the truth is, Paul had always been lucky. Rich Paul became a gambler at an early age—his fast mind and gift for finding an edge made him a devastating dice roller who could hold his own with grown men, win big, and walk away alive. Shooting dice wasn’t just a pastime; it was a way to earn money for his family as his mother struggled under the weight of drug addiction. He learned the secret science of dice in the same place he found all the lessons of his young life: the corner store his father operated, the center of the neighborhood’s frantic action. Paul’s father had another family but kept his son close working at the store. Paul dreamed of becoming a star athlete, but the streets were where he thrived, building a lucrative enterprise on shaky ground. When he found himself at a dangerous crossroads, he summoned the teachings of his past to create a different future. Readers will follow the riveting journey of a young Rich Paul narrated by the Paul of today, who looks back with wit and insight, drawing out the lessons he learned at every stage—about business, people, and the values that lead to success. It’s the inspiring story of the luck that’s all around us, if we know where to look.

Divinely inspired by the willingness of the Holy Mother Spirit to find me when I had not the slightest inclination I was lost, I proudly present my book, Archangel of the Earth Realm-Entertaines Unawares, that has been tucked away inside me since 1985 when God sent me a living earthbound archangel, not only to show me they do exist in the form of mortal human beings, but to present celestial information of great works yet to be accomplished. For seven years, that was his mission in my life. I bear witness to the fact that each and everyone of us is blessed to maintain that spiritual co-existence with the universe-returning eons upon eons to an educational arena to experience that which leads us back to the perfection from whence our spirits derived as angels many, many centiries ago. Living angels manifest whenever and wherever they are sent on any one of the seven super universes as this one has done on a spiritual mission in the earth realm.

Rich Schaffer served the Lord for 20 years as a missionary pilot with the Sudan Interior Mission in Nigeria, West Africa. Harold Fuller wrote .. Great stuff, Rich. You have a very interesting writing style .. reconstructing conversation, describing vividly, building suspense. Were enjoying the chapters as you send them. I knew you were an accomplished pilot, but had no idea of your writing skills. Glad you are now using them! Flying with Rich at the controls was always okay. Although my heart at times pounded as the tiny Cessna faced a threatening tropical storm. I knew this matter-of fact guy of few words had the courage and professional experience to find a hole through or around the thunderheads and bring us out safely on the other side. And Rich always acknowledged that the Lord had given him the qualities that made him a top-rate pilot for Africas uncertain weather and questionable landing strips. In this story about SIMAIR, Rich takes the reader through many an adventure that showed Gods hand to be on the Mission aircraft and its occupants. With vivid description and homey dialogue , Rich weaves an honest account how God took a little boy from a tarpaper shack in Americas Midwest and made him part of a team who brought the Gospel to the neglected interior of West Africa .. fullfilling his boyhood dream of flying. Down to earth humor, growing pains, high adventure, finding God in dry season and rainy-season tempest .. Rich holds the readers attention from pagecone to the storys end. W. Harold Fuller, Lit.D (SIM Nigeria Director for several years of the Shaffers ministry)
