The Doors' co-founding guitarist Robby Krieger looked back on the band's late-frontman Jim Morrison 50 years after his death. Krieger has been busy publicizing his autobiography Set The Night On Fire: Living, Dying And Playing Guitar With The Doors as well as the 50th anniversary edition of the Doors' final album with Morrison — the classic, L.A.

“Fortune-tellers usually don’t predict doom and gloom in your future—it’s bad for business.”. In 1968, The Doors were playing a show in Santa Barbara, and while in town guitarist Robby Krieger, along with drummer John Densmore, were dragged by longtime Whisky a Go-Go stalwarts and friends, Donna and Sharon, to visit a psychic with “the Gift,” called Ms. Clara. Everyone but Donna received their good fortune. Hers would reveal itself weeks later when Krieger, Donna, and her boyfriend were involved in a car accident driving to a fishing trip along the Mexican border. All three sustained injuries, including Donna who was left paralyzed from the waist down after the accident.

This interview was originally published in 2012 to celebrate the 40th anniversary reissue of LA Woman. "I'm glad that LA Woman was our last album," says Doors guitarist Robby Krieger.

Doors guitarist Robby Krieger says late bandmate Jim Morrison welcomed syphilis, arguing that he didn't fear going crazy. The potentially fatal sexually transmitted disease’s symptoms can include the loss of mental faculties, and has long been connected to the lives of 18th and 19th century artists. But the development of modern antibiotics means that it's no longer usually lethal.
