There's a new book out there titled 'The End: Jim Morrison' that purports to reveal exactly how and where Jim Morrison died.  And according to the book, it was indeed a heroin overdose, but it didn't happen at home in a bathtub as the prevailing story goes.

The surviving members of the Doors, along with producer Bruce Botnick, are preparing a deluxe edition of the band's album 'L.A. Woman' for release later this year. The double disc set will include rare outtakes of songs from the album, along with unreleased original songs. One of the rarities is said to be a version of the Barrett Strong Motown classic 'Money (That's What I Want)'.
