Listen closely

I heard another interesting tidbit on the local radio station this morning:

For the song Riders on the Storm, by The Doors, Jim Morrison wanted to create a more eerie effect.  So, he layered his vocals over a recording of him whispering the lyrics.  You can hear the whispering if you listen closely, or listen through  good pair of headphones.  This song is also the last recorded effort before Jim's death in 1971.  According to one source, the whispering part is actually the very last thing he ever recorded.  Which just turns up the creep factor, I think.

The whispering is supposed to allude to the "killer on the road" mentioned in the song.  Think murderous hitchhiker. 

Have a happy day!
