Summary

Greil Marcus: Dorsi: five wicked years of music for a lifetime

"Instead of tiresome factography, tabloid sensationalism and dubious mysticism, Greil Marcus offers exciting and deep critical and cultural insights, thus convincingly confirming both his status as one of the world's leading rock critics and cultural historians, as well as the timeless value of Jim Morrison's poetry and the music of the Dors group." - Zoran Paunović

Five Wicked Years of Music for a Lifetime - with the subtitle of the book DORSI, dedicated to the American rock group "The Doors", Greil Marcus presents the reason for his fascination with that band, but also the way he approaches writing about it. Neither the myth surrounding the Doors, nor the veil of mystery that surrounds them, nor the death cult of Jim Morrison, or the era he is often considered to personify, will be in the center of the reader's attention. This time we will first talk about music.

Salman Rushdie says that "no one reads a poem like Greil Marcus". Marcus tries to answer the question, how is it that forty years after the breakup of the group and Morrison's death, it is still not possible to drive two hours and not hear at least one of her songs on the radio? How is it that a band that has existed for only five years has remained more listened to than almost everyone who created in the same period? Greil Marcus discovered how the spirit of the "Doors" has remained untouched by the ravages of time, and their music still flickers with the fear that in their time hovered over a country not so long ago gripped by the horrors of war.
