Negative Positive
Title: been there, done that
Review: This is perhaps the best written of all the Jim Morrison bio's. Davis' prose is truly a pleasure to read. But unfortunately, the fun stops there. Almost every quote that he uses is lifted from other source material. On top of that, despite the odd new nugget on Morrison, everything here has been covered already. I had hoped Davis would bring new perspectives on Jim from people who hadn't already been in all the other bios; or at least hadn't been focused on much in other bios. "Life, Death, Legend" just throws the other books into a blender and puts a new cover on the amalgamation.
Is the review positive or negative?
