Rick
& The Ravens Radio Show 1997 1 CD
It
was recorded in California in 1997 right as The Doors box set was
being released.
It's a local show that is all about surf music. Therefore, Ray is
the guest and he is talking about his surf band that preceeded The
Doors- Rick and the Ravens.
However, joining Ray in the studio is none other than Jim Manzarek!!
How cool. In this hour long radio show, you get to hear Ray and
Jim talk all about their group.... covering all sorts of topics.
They talk about how Ray nearly broke his wrists when his brothers
had him try riding a skateboard.... they talk about how after Ray
moved out to California to go to UCLA, he insisted to his family
that they all move out there too (which they did).
All in all, its an incredibly cool radio show. Ray repeats a few
of the old standard Doors stories, but the vast majority of the
show is brand new stuff. Hearing Jim and Ray together is just awesome.
They're constantly crackin eachother up.... just having a great
time.
At one point in the show- Ray tells Jim to describe The Turkey Joint
West and as Jim explains it- Ray just laughs and laughs. They then
share stories about how the drummer of the group "vinnie"
would get "totally blitzed on wine coolers" at the turkey
joint west. Absolutely priceless.
