About L.A. Woman

"L. A. Woman" is a song by American rock band The Doors. The song is the title track on their 1971 album L. A. Woman, the final album to feature Jim Morrison before his death on July 3, 1971. In the song's bridge, Morrison repeats the phrase "Mr. Mojo Risin'," which is an anagram of "Jim Morrison". LA Weekly named it No. 1 on their list of the 20 best songs about the city of Los Angeles. A yellow sheet of lined A4 paper with the lyrics of "L. A. Woman" written by Jim Morrison, was auctioned in Berkshire, UK for £13,000 on Aug 4, 2009. In 1985, fourteen years after Morrison's death, Ray Manzarek directed and Rick Schmidlin produced a music video for the song. It was aired on MTV and included in the Doors film Dance on Fire. more »
