I know this is only a The Doors and Love forum,
but is there any The Beatles fans/ collectors here?
does anyone have this vinyl? and can share this Jim song with us? :)

The correct song title is "Happiness Is a Warm Gun".
Lyrics: She's not a girl who misses much, Do do do do do do do do, oh yeah ... and so on.

Here is a link to Wikipedia, but this is only by Wikipedia german.
Wikipedia english is not the same text.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happiness_Is_a_Warm_Gun

My english is not the best, but you can read by this Wikipedia text:
German: Am Rande einer Europatournee der Doors soll Jim Morrison die Beatles am 23. September 1968 in Westminster während der Aufnahmen des Liedes besucht haben.
In my bad englisg translate: On the edge of a European tour of The Doors Jim Morrison to the Beatles visited on September 23, 1968 in Westminster during the recording of the song.

And you can read the book: Greg Shaw: The Doors On The Road. Omnibus Press, London 1997. S. 134
He mean: unfounded and highly unlikely.

Tschüss, Stefan

"Happiness is a warm gun" was of course from the Whitw Album...a cut that was both compelling and disturbing as John delved into heroine and a rather dark period.
