Jim Morrison 08/12/43 – 03/07/71 The Doors front-man broke through to the other side in Paris, found dead by long term partner Pamela Courson in his bath. The exact location of his death is shrouded in mystery and in the absence of an official autopsy, so is the cause. Despite many claiming that like Elvis, he’s still alive, the official cause of death was recorded as heart failure, although it’s widely accepted that its onset was caused after Morrison mistook heroin for cocaine and overdosed.
