A very young Jim Morrison (age 19) in a promo video for Florida State University, 1962. In the span of the next 9 years, Morrison co-founded The Doors, released 6 albums, performed hundreds of concerts, and was dead by 27 in 1971.

Very cool.
I see nothing much has changed with the Florida university system in 60 years.
Damn, in the last 9 years, I’ve been able to clean the garage. Almost done!!
Also transferred to UCLA
The West is the best, he got here and he did the rest.
Taken too soon…

Is this a marketing film to get people to donate to Florida’s universities? Very cool to see Jim M. who attended FSU from 1962-1964 then graduated from UCLA.
How sadly nice.

He even had this kind of Marlon Brando vibe going in the last bit.
Lived a fuller life than I.
It will always blow my mind how Morrison’s father was some kind of high-ranking naval officer who had to tell people that his son was Jim Morrison. That’s so amazingly awkward.
His puffy face; was likely already an alcoholic when this was filmed.
Not bad for a kid whom couldn’t get into college.
**JIM MORRISON:** But what happened? How come my parents, or the state, or the university didn’t look ahead?
**DEAN:** Planning ahead? Looking ahead? That’s just what the university has been doing. That’s the reason for studies such as this one. [Hands Jim Morrison a photo of a castle.]
They had video in ’62?
Such a loss. He had a gorgeous voice.
Thanks Mr Mojo Risen!
