Doors legal row is open and shut case
Friday, 22 August 2008
A long-running legal dispute between the three surviving members of The Doors has been finalised with two of them facing a bill of around $2.5m.
Keyboard player Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robby Krieger have been refused an appeal after Californian courts ruled they improperly used the group's name and images during a 2003 concert tour.
They will now have to pay out to drummer John Densmore, the parents of the dead lead singer Jim Morrison and the parents of Morrison's dead wife, Pamela Courson, who died in 1974.
The Los Angeles-based band had a string of hits in the 1960s including ``Light My Fire,'' ``L.A. Woman'' and ``Riders on the Storm.''
