Ultimate Classic Rock looks back at the arrest history of the late Doors frontman Jim Morrison.

Ray Manzarek, keyboardist and founding member of "The Doors" (1965-1973), is gone at 74.

This is the end, my only friend -- the end of any prayer that the surviving members of the Doors will ever be able to bury the hatchet and make music together again.

In advance of the Oct. 23 release of the 'Live at the Bowl '68,' a clip of the the Doors performing 'Moonlight Drive' has been uploaded to YouTube. The three-minute-plus long video (seen below) shows off the high quality of the 20-song set, remastered for this special DVD and Blu-ray. Even songs thought lost to technical troubles have been restored to give fans the complete concert.

For the first time ever, fans of the Doors will be able to hear the entirety of their famous concert at the Hollywood Bowl on July 5, 1968. On Oct. 23, the band will release ‘Live at the Bowl ’68′ in both video (DVD, Blu-ray, digital) and audio (CD, LP, digital) formats.

If you’re looking for a reason to stay in tonight, PBS has it as their ‘My Music’ series served up ‘Ed Sullivan’s Top Performers.’ The special, airing on PBS stations across the country, takes a look back at the longtime variety show host’s top music acts.

Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger have signed on to help score Manson Girls, an upcoming film focusing on the female disciples of cult leader Charles Manson, Variety reports.

Jim was posthumously pardoned recently for his indecent exposure charge that he got in 1969 at a show in Miami.  But did he even actually do it?
