Musicians Who Set the Stage for Rock and Roll

Jim Morrison

The lead singer of The Doors passed far too early in his life. Morrison only had a few good years as the frontman of The Doors before his unfortunate passing, but his stage persona and haunting voice skyrocketed him into the “legendary” class almost immediately. Fans were drawn to Morrison like moths to a flame or followers of a cult to their leader. His stage performances were likened to prophetic experiences. He was truly the Jesus of rock and roll until his passing.
