@@AnnaLVajda Yes he did live in the fast lane and died of the same. I remember growing up with him as I was under 10 years old when I started listening and dancing to and loving Jim & The Doors, as the few LP's came out, I was there to listen to them as they were released. So glad of that. Still love him today. He is one I will take to my grave.
I was 9 years old when Jim was doing his beautiful thing he does so well. Love when he tells the audience to chill. Very Jim. BTW you have great taste in music.
I got to see the Doors early '67 in LA. I was 15. One of those Dave Diamond concerts in the Valley. Phenomenal performance. Never seen anything like it before or since. And I'm an old man now.
same year, earl warren showgrounds, santa barbara indoors, three songs, 15 minutes each, I was a couple of yards from the stage, about the same age , first album I owned was "the doors"
@clarkewi What do you mean you've never seen anything like it before or since? Can you elaborate for someone who wasn't there? Iggy Pop talks about seeing the Doors at a school dance in Ann Arbor Michigan in '66 or '67, and says he'd never seen a band who looked anything like the way they looked-- he says they looked like homeless people, the way they were groomed and dressed.
@@ghostexits The mood they created was like waiting to see an execution - a beheading. With the organ and sparse Spanish sounding guitar notes (guitar player didn't use a pick which was unusual). And then Morrison himself. That first time I saw them he was drunk and could barely hold onto the microphone stand. He had his arms and legs wrapped around it. And it was a round theater with the stage going around and around. Didn't say a word but you could sense something was going to happen. That was what was different about them. This dark anticipation. And then suddenly Morrison leaped into the air and exploded into that shrieking howl of his. And went into "Back Door Man". That was their opening song. And I got the feeling that Morrison wouldn't live too long. He was just to wild and primal. But they captured it on record and film like "Isle of Wight". Great performance.
This song leads deep into the human abysses of emotional rage, grief and despair and it lets you sink alone and helplessly in the storm-lashed sea of your own human inadequacy, to wash you up at the end strangely amazed and fearfully relieved again in the earthly reality...
Cuánto daría por estar ahí.. hoy puedo pagar más de algún concierto nunca sería igual. Afortunados aquellos que presenciaron aquella noche al dios del rock.... Con el perdón de Freddy Mercury.. led zeppelin, para mí the Doors posee una mística única . Que despierta al inconciente !!!
Por eso se llaman The Doors, Lad puertas de la persepción , abren todos los sentidos, la banda era única y genial, Jim era enigmático, sensual a veces algo obseno, pera un genio inigualable.
I dont usually take much notice of the drumming but that guy is really in the zone here. Perfect counter to Morrisons voice, like punctuating his phrases.
It couldn’t have been easy to keep all these different vibes from everyone going and not fall apart. The Doors were so much more talented than people give them credit for.
Takes me back and forthgoing for years. He has always been in my life. A LP, Tape a CD and now youtube. which is the best as I can watch him as well as listen to him. Yes music is all awakening! I like that you said that. Cool comment. I can dig it can you.
My Dad was a great fan of the Doors..lost him 3 yeas ago & its changed my life around ! Its still raw & hurts so much...Love & being Loved is so Crucial in Life i suppose thats the Grand plan! Nature is like that like all earths creatures...Just enjoy your time!
Это вещь!!!это больше чем песня!!!!легендарные,,ДОРЗ,, лучшие!!!Джим великий шаман,завораживает своим тембром!обожаю вас!бесконечно можно слушать,погружаться в эту шикарную музыку!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cómo perspectiva , este concierto fué el 3 de julio del 68 , pocos días antes de asesinado boby Kennedy , y Martin L King ( en abril) dos años atrás aún ensayaban en casa de Ray , a ningún productor le seducía el sonido del grupo ni las letras , por no ser rentables..... Y ahí estaban....,en el máximo escenario de Los Angeles, haciendo el mismo show , que hacían en bares y noches de bohemia....mientras el país se desmoronaba y los Doors conquistaban su propio mundo ,para ofrecerlo , sin parecerse a ninguno....
Jim Morrison was so gorgeous and talented! They were giving him legal problems and the sixties was a rough time. The Vietnam War brought a lot of young people that started experimenting with acid. People were wild and filled with angst! I believe that he tried to escape to Paris from his legal troubles. They were too hard on him. He probably battled deep depression. However, he was genius and a true legend! He rocks! Love forever!😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🐯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you were there, no explanation is necessary, If you weren't there no explanation will suffice. Please, understand, I'm not trying to sound like an elitist. But there was so much going on back then it just seems impossible to describe the turmoil to someone that has no point of reference to what it was like to actually live in that time. So many wonderful things mixed in with so many terrible things, So much joy, so much sadness, all soundtracked by the best music ever. The music is the key to the understanding. At least it's a start. Rock on, all who follow. Edit 06/29/20 - Thank You for the responses, I've at least got you thinking. If you truly believe that what we are experiencing today is ANYTHING like what the 60's was like then you really need a history lesson. Great progress has been made. Is it over, HELL NO.
@@semireckless I definitely would not have. However, I was born in 2006. The music and experiences changed so much between that time and this time. Back then there was rock music and going outside, now rock is dead and there is only technology and mumble rap. It kind of sickens me that there won't be any Kurt Cobain or Jimi Hendrix or Jim Morrison to tell my kids about. There hasn't been any great talent since the 1990s and early 2000s.
@@daun7912 Check out the fabulous young British singer/rapper/dancer/songwriter Cher Lloyd. In my opinion, Katy Perry kicks ass. How about Avril Lavigne?
I can't tell you how many times back in the old days I played this song. Returning home after a cocaine and alcohol fueled night I would time this song to play after the cocaine wore off and all that alcohol I drank would suck me into a black hole. The fade out was fantastic. It's nothing I would do today and I don't recommend doing it, but I don't regret it, any of it. Dark music for dark souls on dark nights trapped in a dark life. This song takes me back to days long ago.
con este tema me vole a otras dimenciones no conosidas por la humanidad the doors son las puertas que se abren para viajar a las dimenciones no conocidas por la humanidad
Jim was tripping balls during this performance "ught ohh I blew it, it's a moth that's alright he ain't got long to go so we'll forgive him " love when he improvises
@@ianthomas2289 It is kind of uncanny just how many died at age 27. Striking is likely a better word than uncanny, as I don't wish to suggest anything preternatural or downright silly.
Died @ age 27 in Rock n Roll Circus Paris July 3, 1971... I was there that night at the club. Scoring some smack for Pamela, he went into the women's restroom to try it out & probably did a copious amount & mixed with alcohol- deadly mixture 🖤 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 🖤
Fuzzy Butkus Thank you, that is for sure something very sweet to hear. Unfortunately, the only thing that having good taste in music gives nowadays, is difficulty in bearing today's pop music, that is literally everywhere.
@@the.hot.button today there's no music or artists, just business. Pity. We are still young we should try to bring back justice to real music and artists.
@@widerange6420 check out Dope Lemon. They are a good group (check out their track called Honey Bones). But yet it is distinct from what came before 90s
That is because they did have very much meaning if you really listen and if you know about Jim. I love his lyrics and poems. They make perfect sense to me. They are real, that is why they feel so real to you.
He did some acid before the concert started. This of course was at the Hollywood Bowl. I got the Blu-ray of this concert. During interviews Ray said he did acid before the concert and it was obvious he was peaking when he did this song. The Blu-ray is worth the money and I really enjoyed the interviews.
Yep he did have alcohol and drug problems but sorry a lot of women thought he was good looking and still do. I do think at that age he wouldn't be a good partner. Possibly if he was able to live longer and change his ways.
@Susan Kelly I have no reason to be jealous honey, he was cute, yes, but " beautiful ", no, sorry. And i'm a great fan of The Doors. But i hate drugs and junkies. That's all.
Eloborate plans is right. The almight had a plan for this man. He was only here for a short period of time and space but he really made a ripple in the fabric or reality there were very strong vibrations around this man around that time. We all wish he coulda stuck around longer but if he had his light wouldnt have shown so brightly.
Mi canción Favorita,Todo el álbum es buenísimo,Un Gran Clásico de Rock,Te Extraño Jim,Señor regresalo a la Tierra,Llévate a Maluma,Kumbia Kings,A los Traperos,Raperos, Reggaetoneros,etc,etc
This is in part is about Charlie Mason, who I met briefly in 1967-8 just a year before the killings. Also The Doors played at my high school in 1968 in Northridge CA.
