He mentions the female teacher of Indian music at UCLA in his memoir but does not give the name. But, he says she was the inspiration for him to compose the "Indian Summer" song from 1966, issued on their "Morrison Hotel" LP (1970). Well, this means the knowledge she gave him could inspire also his guitar parts on the famous track "The End" ("The Doors", 1967), and the very first Doors recording (sans their Krieger-less 1965 demo acetate), the soundtrack for "Love Thy Customer" instructional film for Ford from 1966 (can be found on The Doors' "R-Evolution" video compilation or on Youtube).
