Blabbermouth.Net is reporting that following Jim Morrison's death, the rest of the Doors were seriously considering asking Paul Rodgers from Free to be their new lead singer.

The Doors were all fans of Free and after Jim Morrison's death; they came to England looking for me. (The) thing is, at that time, I had buried myself in the country, working on things, and they couldn't get a hold of me."

So why didn't this happen?

Rodgers explained that it's only recently come to his attention that he was shortlisted to become THE DOORS' second lead singer before Ray Manzarek decided to take over vocal duties himself.

Crazy.  Do you think Paul Rodgers could have pulled it off?  Big shoes to fill.
