John Paul Densmore, born December1,
1944 in Santa Monica, California. Drummer, writer, attended Santa Monica
City College, Cal State Northridge.
I've been playing for six years. I don't really have too
much to say about all of this. I took piano lessons when I was ten. They
tried to get me to play Bach. They tried for two years. When I wsa in
junior high I got my first set of drums. I played symphonic music in high
school (tympani, snare drum), then I played jazz for three years. I used
to play sessions in Compton and Topanga Canyon. Since last year it's been
rock'n'roll and these creeps.

Джон Пол Денсмор, род. 1 декабря 1944 в Санта-Моника,
шт.Калифорния. Ударник, писатель, проходил обучение в Городском колледже
Санта-Моника; Университете шт.Калифорния, Нортридж.
Я играю в течение шести лет. Мне почти нечего
сказать обо всём этом. В десять лет я начал брать уроки игры на фортепиано.
Они пытались обучить меня играть Баха. Пытались года два. В старших классах
у меня впервые появился собственный комплект ударных. Я играл симфоническую
музыку в страших классах, затем играл джаз в течение трёх лет, был сессионным
музыкантом. с этого года я в рок-н-ролле и это круто.
