Wait l had no idea it was midnight or anywhere near that time. But when i looked at the time it was nearly midnight As i edit this comment the time was 23:23pm
I believe the 1960s is really where technology started to be more and even more advanced then ever before then it peaked in the 1970s and now we’re at this moment in time the it’s questionable 21st century technology innovated asf
Yeah it's really a time portal to look at film from this era made with proper equipment. I'd say it was around the 60s where really high definition video became viable? On a similar note, I've always been amazed with Autochrome photography. It existed before WW1 and it's really quite mindblowing how good it looks.
The first time I "hear" the term: T-posing! (Maybe because english is not my mother language)! Reminds me a bit of: "...arms raised in a V..." (from the song Jeremy, by Pearl Jam!) Anyway...I´m a huge Doors fan too...so I agree with you! IT DOESN`T GET MUCH BETTER THAN THAT!!! ;) ;) ;)
@@georgiagaratziotou8578 sorry but have to say, knew it wasnt just me!..lol. Great quality vidio picture and soundwise, saw Doors Boston Arena 70 was 15 paid 3.50...hid in bathroom for 2 hours. saw 2 shows for 3.50! 65 now ..never forget a second of both shows
I find it ironic that today’s society criticize our music from the 1960s& 1970’s. With all the wars and crap going on in the world today our music is just as relevant now as it was then.
I saw the Doors perform this at Madison Square Garden in 1969. Morrison climbed atop some speakers for the firing squad routine, if I remember correctly, and when shot, plunged to the stage without moving his limbs to break his fall. Quite a thud. And he lie there. And he lied there. The other Doors looked at each other and he lied there. Silence. The audience was holding it's breath not knowing what was going on, and the other Doors looked concerned. Finally they started to play and Morrison leapt up shouting into the microphone. Quite a show, his charisma and control over the audience with his timing and theatrics made a lasting impression on the then 16 year old me and a Doors fan for life.
For me, this band has stood the test of time. They all were great musicians and if one were to leave it wouldn't be The Doors. I really appreciate that more now since the sixties are long gone.
The doors projected a play on the stage and that made them feel more than emotions, music. and with Jim's Voice it was impossible not to get lost in the bowels of his art.
@@brandonthomas7127 Morrison was a True Artist not just a Musician,he made and Created his own shit unlike Artists nowadays who all copy and recycle the same Formula for their music
Because this concert was filmed. It was filmed on good film (35mm I believe), and was restored professionally years back, making it look like it was recorded yesterday.
It doesn't matter how old some video footage is, it matters on what it was shot. As the others already said, film (35mm or even 65/70mm, 16mm can also look very good) has very high quality, those old movies (or a concert like this) always had that whole information, but after many decades it needed to be restored and cleaned to look as good again as it can. Things shot on tape f.e. (many TV series in the 80s etc., many other concerts from that time) however have lot worse quality and will therefor never look much better since there just isn't just more there.
Strange how morrison keeps his eyes closed during the entire performance.. I don't think I've ever seen morrison with his eyes open live except on a few rare occasions
He was very shy about performing. I remember hearing Ray say years ago in an interview that he couldn’t face the audience in their earliest performances. He’d stand with his back to them. So many of these great artists have very different internal lives than they portray onstage. Freddie Mercury is another. ❄️❄️❄️
@@EddieC3336 yeah that's why the drinking...liquid courage. But even facing them had to close his eyes. His Dad was Military he knew he could have been shot himself on a battlefield and Nam was going on he ain't kidding up there.
Had this on VHS 27 years ago when I was a huge teenage The Doors fan - and not watched it in all these years. It's amazing how it has not lost any of its power, still fresh and inspiring - and also how clearly I recall several of the camera shots as if it were yesterday that I had last seen it. My god, this band were really so powerful and magical.
I wish I could go back in time to the late 60's at the height of the Doors band fame - Of course I'd be back to being in grade school. What great music there was back then. I would have liked to have been a young woman in her 20's back then and old enough to date the Doors members or other great music performers of that time.
@@paulcooper5748 Because Christianity has too many conflicting rules which means unless you were a monk or nun you won't get in. Heaven is overrated anyway.
The Doors aren’t a band, their one big long psychedelic mind journey through the unknown. Through which have will never truly know nor not know. Jim, Ray, John, & Robbie had no idea that this would be the never ending road. The never ending sound that has taken us to places we’ve only dreamed of. Long live the soul long letting our minds take us and free us. NFA
Morrison was very acrobatic growing up swimming, balancing on edges to be daring. So it was easy for him to pull off these physical stunts on stage and sometimes they look painful, like jumping high up in the air and land completely on his side before withering and twitching like a snake with its head cutt off. He had an intense feeling for theater and drama.
JIM IS AS HOT TODAY IN 2024 AS HE WAS HOT IN THE 1960'S/1970'S. WHAT A SHAME TO LOSE SUCH A GIFTED TALENT. HE WAS THE STAR OF THE DOORS. YOUR MUSIC WILL LIVE FOREVER IN THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF MILLIONS FOR DECADES TO COME. MAY HE REST IN PEACE.
This is a great clip for as old as it is. Jim was an interesting performer...and we see a bit of musical theater...but also a theater of the mind in a way...hypnotic. And Jim's voice was something else...unique for sure...very much enjoyed this...thanks!

People forget that Jim was just a young lad. Had he lived longer he’d have settled down somewhat. His voice is so mature that even I forget just how young he was.
Nobody could imagine Jim death after only 3 years..What a concert and a so powerful song for a rebel son of a military officer as he was and during Vietnam nightmare..Great emotions..
I found an old cell phone that belonged to my brother. I charged the phone but couldn’t get access to it, since it needs a passcode. The phone did have a memory card so I plugged it to my computer just to see what was on it, and if I can find some pictures on it.. I found a folder so I clicked on it, and it was around 10 pictures of Jim Morrison including one of Jim’s grave site.. he also had other folders of dead musicians and gravesites.. my brother is in heaven with all his favorite musicians of the 60-90’s.
I remember seeing them do this in December '67 (RPI in Troy, NY) and again in '68 (Hunter College, NYC). the drama and just being in the audience was spellbinding! Possibly the best part of the show, especially having no idea what to expect on this very new song.

Anyone else want to talk about how they share while working with those that makes that a necessity and not an act of kindness, friendship or family...even corrupting the intention within their faith...
The Doors' music is best experienced at midnight.
@Armando Iris’s-Sant - or, in my case, 5:30 AM (Central Standard Time)
I agree, i dont why but this is true
Wait l had no idea it was midnight or anywhere near that time. But when i looked at the time it was nearly midnight
As i edit this comment the time was 23:23pm
Listening to this at 1:10 am, can confirm
it's always midnight when you turn out the lights
The Doors weren't just a band, they were an experience.... they truly were the doors of perception

100% agree
Escúchalo con un enteógeno.

This looks to be shot by a Panavision 65 which is filmed in 65mm. It was considered high definition back in the day.

If I remember correctly he'd only been playing drums for about 6yrs before he joined the Doors and he did an absolutely magnificent job.
Freaking legendary!!
Ray voice organ
@@luisnoone6993 ray voice %toahdhoyws ezcekkent
My favorite drummer
Jim always had his eyes closed when performing, this tells me he tapped into a different world while performing something beyond us
I think it's more prosaic than that- people who are shy or uncomfortable in front of a crown will perform with their eyes closed.
Bro chill
this is called being shitfaced lol
Definitely agree
he was having closed eyed visuals on acid (
The rage of Jim's voice after the execution... ❤
They were at their avant-garde best then- the U.S. war machine was fully raging...
Yeah gotta be mad after you've been executed and all
I find it ironic that today’s society criticize our music from the 1960s& 1970’s. With all the wars and crap going on in the world today our music is just as relevant now as it was then.
Nobody sings about war and peace anymore.. it’s just all boring mind numbing high school drama shit.
I feel so good when I get notified by The Doors
🙂
One of the best songs of The Doors
Jim’s onstage antics really added an element to their shows. A fan forever…
He was a film major at USC
I saw the Doors perform this at Madison Square Garden in 1969.

AWESOME experience.
Wow this song live at the time period, the last words being “the war is over!” makes chills go throughout my whole body every time
"Unborn living, living dead" is very relevant to American society currently.

During/after Vietnam war
Damn freakin piece of art.
A nothing can replace them Ever.
For me, this band has stood the test of time. They all were great musicians and if one were to leave it wouldn't be The Doors. I really appreciate that more now since the sixties are long gone.
Kind of reminds me of the time the other three dropped two albums and it wasn’t really the doors
Not only awesome live performance but pure Legend..Jim was so charismatic and inspired. Wow
I often wonder if the audience realised at the time that we'd still be watching in awe 50 years later???
Yes and the fact you still can't spell.
His voice makes me feel alive, what a band
The doors projected a play on the stage and that made them feel more than emotions, music.
and with Jim's Voice it was impossible not to get lost in the bowels of his art.

wouldnt mind getting lost in them or he could lose himself in mine
No one made a similar performance live.....never. Jim is today the best frontman ever. A sciaman and thousands of spirits together.
Love you jim
You gave me light

wow, omg, how did you manage to make a recording from 1968 look so damn good? this could have been recorded today!
Because this concert was filmed. It was filmed on good film (35mm I believe), and was restored professionally years back, making it look like it was recorded yesterday.
@@PinkFloydBootlegs yup it was on 35 it was remastered for this film i had it on vhs back in the day it looked bad but the audio was just as crisp
It’s called film.
35mm film is approximately 5.6k resolution. 5,600 × 3,620 pixels
It doesn't matter how old some video footage is, it matters on what it was shot.

Nice performing, awesome sound, really impressive show. It'll be fantastic to see more live concerts of The Doors in theaters.

The quality of this video is amazing.
ive always loved the way he closes his eyes, so shy that when he finally turned around, he needs to keep his eyes shut
The film quality is sublime!
