  • 36 - T.E Breitenbach

    Join me as I interview T.E. Breitenbach.

    T. E. Breitenbach (born July 29, 1951) is a self-taught American artist best known internationally for his painting "Proverbidioms", a raucous and comical depiction of over 300 common proverbs and clichés which he publishes as a poster. He also collaborated with Jim Morrison of The Doors, shortly before Morrison's 1971 death, on a painting intended for use on Jim's "An American Prayer album".

    He left college after becoming the youngest person to receive a Rome Prize Fellowship in visual arts and, inspired by the castles and museums of Europe, returned home and started building by hand his own castle and studio, to house his art and eventually become a museum. Thom also write's musicals and books.

    Founding my museum is his current project, and he is looking for patrons to put up a museum building. You can visit CastleBreitenbach.org to learn more. He is currently looking for producers to create shows and movies from his books and musicals.

    You can visit his main site, tebreitenbach.com for poster purchases, castle tours, his Jim Morrison story with letters, and much more. Visit OurMusical.com for links to watch the artist's musical on PBS "Hieronymus, a Musical Fantasy" the story of an artist with a too-large imagination, plus trailers, a documentary and more.

  • 33 - Live At Konserthuset, Stockholm, September 20, 1968

    Celebrate The Doors Stockholm Record Store Day release with a podcast breaking down the shows including excerpts from the newly mixed release! We compare one of the bootleg sources to this mix, and we follow the tapes lineage as well as the various bootleg versions. We also give background on The Doors at this time, talk about the European tour, the venue itself, and we also break down each song and moment that makes this one of the best recorded Doors’ shows ever. 

    How does the new release handle the missing vocals in “When the Music’s Over”? Are there any cuts in this show? What makes Robby’s solos here different? Is Jim’s distorted vocal track fixed? All these and more are answered! 

    Whether you traded tapes through Kerry Humphrys’ Doors Collector Magazine and read Greg Shaw’s The Doors: On The Road or you got bootlegged CDs with Fred Baggen artwork and went to the Mild Equator for concert info, there is something here for everybody! 

    You don’t want to miss this one! Happy Record Store Days you all!
