Morrison penned this song about the street in Laurel Canyon where he lived with girlfriend Pamela Courson. The couple had a very special and close relationship, yet tumultuous with arguments and infidelities.
On July 3, 1971, she awoke to find Morrison dead in the bathtub of their apartment in Paris. She took his death very hard and moved back to Los Angeles, drowning her sorrow in drugs.
Ms. Courson died of a heroin overdose in April 1974. She was cremated and her ashes interred in a Santa Ana mausoleum where the plaque reads — Pamela Susan Morrison 1946–1974.
