The Doors - Legends (very rare documentary)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มิ.ย. 2012
- Here's a very rare documentary without the annoying subtitles, narrated by Henry Rollins. I recorded it on VHS back in something like 1997, then recorded it onto a recordable DVD-R. The tape it was oiginally on stopped working right after I burned it to DVD. Enjoy it. I know I did.
Always fresh and clean. The sound from the doors never feels vintage. Every time I listen it's like the first time. I've been listening for 45 years+. I can't get enough.
Mark hello again, yes me as well.
Classic never out of style.
Oh yeah.
Mark Rizzo ....it is intertesting that it
never sounds old... or even dated.
I listened to Doors right from the first
album....Break on Through ...being g my
favorite song ....even now . I am
70 yrs. now and feel doors adds youth
energy to my soul. From N. J. ....
@@AnnaLVajda I need to eat
Genius and demon fighter. Poet and clown. Sexy and defiant. I was 15, now 67. Never stopped listening to the lyrics that weave in and out of decades of my life.
68 love The Doors
Im 18 soon 19 and i have been non stop listening to the doors for 2 years straight now, just cant get enough... Of all bands these captured somethinf just very special, something i cant explain, its almost like a tranze listening to them.
I'm 40 man I whish I was born in them good old days just to hear the doors and c them live man. Great music one of a kind
@@jimharbin9478 I'm now 46 & at age 17 a lovely man name of Oliver Stone introduced me to The Doors & i've loved them ever since.
Man what u just wrote man love it man . That music still sounds good now. And it was music not what it is today
Been a fan all of my life. Still am. Love Jim and the guys. Love The Doors.
The Doors were so unique and original . Such a very special band. There's something truly spiritual about this band
The lizard King I've found the keyboards to have a trippy sound, ''Break on through' for example. It's as if Jim Morrison really lived for the music
I knew when I was quite young, upon first hearing the music, that something rare and exceptional was going on. Something move stirred within and I knew he was the one.
The Lizard King, Thank you. I feel a connection with Jim, I do not know why. But I am one of those ppl who see spirits and always have and still do. I don't know how many ppl believe in that but it is real as hell and it always takes place right after someone has passed away. I see them before I even know they are dead. I am not afraid of them, I used to be when I was young. But you are right something very spiritual about the Doors. Dusty the 2nd.
Is Tom Petty still alive ?
@@andrewking9761 hi
The Doors were my first rock concert in Minneapolis. Light my Fire! I was eighteen young and naive and I was star ⭐️ struck and will never forget that concert!!❤️ A true Legend!
That was 1968, November 10th at the concert hall. Or was it 1969, June 15th at the Convention Center? The last time Ray, John and Robby played in Minneapolis was as OTHER VOICES in 1971 after Jim had died.
@@organbuilder272actually played in 1969 at Minneapolis Convention Center in June after Miami
Almost a half century later, the DOORS music and legend lives on. They were American originals.
The think the interest of the Doors came from a place that was deep in the recesses of the mind, he took great joy in exploring all the Senses to the fullest. Like they say he packed 50 years of living into 5- Years basically. He was truly trying to shed the shackles of being noted for being a Rock Star only, As he truly was searching for recognition for his writings. And was trying to figure out his next step when in Paris in 1971, Accidentally O.D. From a fat line of Heroine , Not realizing the potency, most likely after a night of heavy drinking thought he could handle the high. It's not like Cocaine where one can whiff a Fat line and feel alright . It only takes a line the Size of a Match head to get off on, And in that night club in Paris in a bathroom stall he accidentally took way too big of a whiff and Died right there. His body was carried over to his Hotel to spare any negative publicity to the night club as having one on the most famous Rock Stars of the Day dying in your establishment , Not good for publicity or legal concerns. Accidental OD , is How Jim M. Died , I totally believe this explanation better than any other.
still relative the religion of time,
@@wesharrington5937 Yes, Jim died in women's restroom of Rock n Roll Circus Paris July 3, 1971 , carried back to his apartment and put in the hot tub to disguise the time of death. This
done to protect the club Rock n Roll Circus and it's clientel. 🖤
I was one block from Jim's apartment in a hotel and at the club later on ... ... ... 🌙🌙🇺🇸🌙🌙🎶🎵🎶 👽 😱
I was 21 years old and very much alive
Now , I'm old at 69 but very much alive in 2019 💙 🇺🇸 🎶🎶
@@michaelserby7697 Yes I think he just made a mistake thinking he could handle the "H" but was not really Opiate tolerate, And with all the Drinking he had been doing, it does not take too much of that shit to shut down your respiratory system, He was not into needles And probably was pretty drunk. An laid out a Big Fat Line like the Size of a good Cocaine sized Line and it killed him, thinking he could handle it. When it only takes a small nasal hit the size of a Match head to get off on. Not knowing this. He basically accidentally OD , while picking the Shit up at the Night Club for Pam. Been drinking heavily at the bar. Scored the shit late Night, And decided to take a sample Hit of it, Went into the Bathroom Stall. And that was it Game Over did in a bathroom stall. they took his body over to his and Pams Apartment put him in bathtub and came up with the Bullshit story to spare the nightclub any legal fallout or bad Publicity. This truly seems like the most realistic Truth or story to what happen to him.
My friend Cathy and I went to visit his gravesite. We both were ABSOLUTELY amazed @ all the pre-teens, teens etc. who were there as NONE OF THEM, repeat NONE OF THEM WERE BORN...(yet). People were sitting, standing, milling about and everyone was being thoughtful and courteous to the visitors as they were chatting discreetly. It was an AMAZING experience for me. P.S. I was 13 yrs. old in 1971. 63 now & STILL listen to the Doors🎶. R.I.P Jim.❤
R.I.P Jim & Ray
Ewan Elwell Rip
....AND Robbie Kreiger.
@@Anglovox he is still alive
R.I.P legends,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was born in 1970…but my older cousins and neighbors…made sure I knew the Doors… I’m 53 now and still love to listen to their truth
One of the best documentaries I've seen.
This is a very good documentary, however they got one part wrong: The doors movie by Oliver Stone was NOT a bio, he presented a Jim that is what most people saw, but there was so much more about him. He was a sensitive, highly intelligent person, a genius is you will, with the soul of a clown that made him blew it at the most crucial moments, as he said him self, he was hunted by inner demons that at the end took over him through alcohol. I invite you to listen to some of his interviews and you will discover the Jim that nobody knew. Most geniuses are not understood. He had a great message to share, but not everybody cared to understand it, he was born before his time. Im not saying he was a saint, but we should see the whole picture.
oliver stones movie is total shit
that was not how the real jim morrison was at all
Uma F i think i love you?
You make a good point
I agree with you completely...
Uma F Jim is much closer to my idea of a saint unlike the "saints" of many religions. He was more like Samson and King David of the Old Testament, very male, very sexual, really human, with a soul of the divine. Jim's and The Doors' messages were right on time for myself and others who escaped the horror of the Vietnam War, especially hearing "Light My Fire". Only in recent years have I collected The Doors DVDs and CDs and Oliver Stone's film "The Doors", greatly expanding my appreciation of their music and messages. TH-cams, such as this one on The Doors, are expanding all of the above even more.
Narrated by Henry Rollins. A legend in his own right.
.... a legend in his own mind.
@Coy Leigh so not only did your bitch ass come back to comment after a month but you steal someone else’s comment to repeat some bum ass point? You are a Loser with a capital L
A legendary bozo perhaps.
@David Kraft coward that would never say it to his face
muffled annoying voiceover 'tho - voiceover a legend in someone's eardrum.
Jim took us to places musically mentally
Physically and spiritually
We were lucky to have seen and heard such brilliance.
Greatest rock poet and frontman ever
@smoothygroovy Big E? Elvis?
I saw them so many times back in the day I lost count. Awesome group.
I'm jealous...
patty you saw Abba many times back in the day
You must have been one of those groupies I enjoyed throwing off the stage.
yeah sure
When they were on they were 2nd to none.
Jim Morrison yelling at the audience ... priceless !
It is plainly stupid! And, yet sheeple just stood there and listened to him; probably, wanting to be yelled at even more. He hated them, and he had every right because people are stupid. Audience should have thrown potatoes and tomatoes at him and never come back.
@@Dzanarika1 You honestly extracted all that from what Jim said? Have you heard the entire thing or did you just hear the idiot part and decide all of this nutty stuff you just made up? Weird.
"You seen my grasshopper mama? Lookin' real good....."
“Uh oh, I blew it...it’s a moth”!
I met Jim when I wrote for tiger beat. I was 18. He was a true kind gentleman.
Lol, I remember Tiger Beat. I’m very, very surprised that Jim would do an interview with Tiger Beat magazine.
I bet he was while he was peeling your panties
The music was new black polished chrome and came over the summer like liquid night.
Leno9950 Leno9950 Jim? You are still alive!!
Bob Spence fuck u bob , from sunny Ireland, I don't have time to be replying to idoits like you.
Pretty good, Leno.
Not sure what Bob's issue is. I thought it sounded cool.
We want the world, and we want it Now. It world now.
The higher the IQ, the closer one is to insanity... Jim's music and words will be eternal, due to the the recordings and writings. We are blessed to have them. The building used in the TV series "Burn Notice", where the main character Michael Westen lived, was actually where The Doors performed. I cried when they blew it up.
geniuses are never accepted..even to this day...
Jim died in Rock n Roll Circus Paris July 3 , 1971 🖤 snorted China white heroin which was too pure, died in woman's restroom of Rock n Roll Circus 🖤,

My fave band!! Such a unique sound! Thank you old bro Ernie for turning me on to the doors at age 9!! 48 years later they’re still my band! Still get goose bumps listening to Ray’s keyboards and Jim’s voice. R.I.P both.
It's simply not possible to be a bigger Doors fan than me❤️ they've been there for me through thick & thin.
I have connected in a way that that reaches beyond limits.
Well I much disagree with you. I am sure I am! Who is to say really? The point is we love them.

Good on you pal!!!
dont think so
I got into the Doors late in life, I was in my early 20s and bought their greatest hits album, it was a great sample platter; I then quickly purchased the remainder of their music inventory. Even though Morrison was self-destructive and oblivious to what it means to be a performer who is willing to actually perform to an audience and give them what they want, they produced five epic albums. Each unique in its own way. Ray Manzarek is a genius or was a huge part of their success. In the 80s, he produced two albums for the Los Angeles punk band X, and even played a great solo on one of their songs.
Jim's face when he gets arrested is iconic😕 I loved him cuz he could give two shits about what people thought of him 😎
He seemed to Really care but I don't know his heart so 🤷♂️
I promise you he cared what his dad thought. I’d start there.
Best documentary I've seen of The Doors. Thanks so much for sharing.
LaFemmeX Henry Rollins did a great job on the narration. I didn't realise it was him until he really let go in the last minute or so. Talking about the dichotomy of the 60's etc. Great stuff
I've watched every Doors documentary I could get my hands on. This was one of the better ones. Portrayed Jim as the man he was, a genius bent on destruction, not the God-myth rock God hyped up.
Literally same here. Totally agree as well.
Having an Admiral for a father I imagine Jim heard about nuclear weapons from his father and books.Giving Jim a feeling that what the fuck let's all get stoned immaculately while we still can.I think Jim was so smart he knew what man made he uses and that included thermal nuclear weapons. Why I'm saying this is because my dad was a col. in the early 60's and we read the books and magazines dad had laying around the house back in the Cold War days.
John Caldwell did you listen to the doors then and got high?
@wildcatter63 why was it Jim's dad?
@@ProMrLecoq01 immaculately! 🍄😜
it’s funny that people thought the doors were disgusting and insanely sexual. they should see the music industry today and the “singers” they throw on stage with no clothes humping the floor as they can’t sing a note.
And looks like you became the hating ass conservative square.
Right my girl. I always have loved the Doors esp. Jim. I feel I have a connection with him somehow. I do not know why, but I feel his spirit. I have that connection with very few ppl. but it is real. Yes the bands these days are nothing in comparison. D2
For real! They don't even play instruments! Makes me gag!
✌️♥️
@@MagravatorMag Correct! Gags me as well.
@@blackspring3207 let's auto-tune that!
Wow, Moonlight Drive is one of my favourite songs of all time. It's even better now that I know it started The Doors.
The price of being a genius is usually a tormented soul & Jim was really a poet at heart.
Jim was too deep & intelligent to be the "Rock God" that he was expected to be . He wasn't meant to be a rock star, it was that lifestyle of excess & decadence that destroyed him.
I went to the Pere-Lachaise in Paris to see his grave & pay my respects, it was quite a sad & empty experience, things never feel the way we think they will.
Anyway, rest in peace Jim, the one & only "Lizard king"! 👑
I hope to visit his grave one day my self the music world lost so much the day jim died ,,,
I think this happens with a hell of a lot of these guys, from Jim to Keith Moon to, hell, Bix Beiderbecke, to your local "train kids" who may in many case have started out high-IQ kids who get kicked out of home for being gay, or even disagreeing politically with their parents.
They think they're young, a little drink can't hurt. A little drugs can't hurt. And the trouble is, when you're young, possibly poorly nourished due to neglect either on your parents' part or your own, you can burn out a lot of things, liver, brain, etc on drink and drugs. And then that genius is gone.
Rich and fame came too fast not sure if some one as young as jim Morrison could handle that presser,,, it certainly pushed him over the edge in the end
Sonny O'driscoll it was the persecution, by the warmongering system of America, against Jim's message and the Doors' songs that depressed Jim, more than the fame and idol worship. I had to endure the same damned 60's era, and was blessed to escape the horror of the Vietnam War. Jim and The Doors were not the typical young rock stars singing lovely "lullabies". Jim sang a wide range of songs with his very versatile voice and a wide range of lyrics, some very meaningful, and some chaotic, like Jim's seemingly lost soul that he attempted to retrieve by fleeing to Paris. I did that living in southern Europe for 5+years from 1976-1982, and India for 6 months in 1982, then most reluctantly returning to the USA. The Doors were revolutionaries against tyranny and war. Make love, not war is what we believed and practiced.
Kelhi Rhu-isha Macmillan lots of artists of all kinds self destruct, I think his end would have been the same whether he’d been a rock star or not.
Jim Morrison left this world way too soon
That's what heroin do...
And that's what alcohol (liquor) does to you.
And being a CIA asset to which the assignment had ended too soon.
Yes he did man
Pamela killed him.
I love the doors... Jim Morrison was a genius and such a mystical person, far beyond his years. I am Native American and even though he was not, he could have fooled anyone if he said he was. So sad the booze and drugs took him. I believe that he couldn't handle this life being jim. Maybe next time around!! RIP JIMBO!!
I don’t know that it was that he couldn’t handle being Jim, as much as he couldn’t handle being a rockstar. Think of all the traveling ,all the attention and all the fake hanger on friends he had to deal with. I don’t like traveling either but to an introvert like jim ,it was much worse.
@@dwightplock1162 You sound like you knew him the way I know him. I grew up with Jim and he really couldn't handle the rockstar part. That is why he made himself look nonsexual in 1969 with the beard and all the lame clothing. See him on PBS version of Changeling. Dusty the 2nd.
“Maybe the next time around.” Hell yeah, it moved me 🙏

When The Doors went into the studio to record for Electra I was starting high school. In a few months that album was everywhere. What a good documentary this is. Funny thing is, there's quite a lot recorded of Morrison, a lot of facts, plenty of detail but he remains a stone cold enigma.

Great music never dies, it just gets better with age,jim Morrison lives on. R.I.P.
I was born in 82, way after Jim passed away, when I was young I saw Oliver Stone movie about the Doors and grew with a fascination on them and mainly Jim, started to read and see docs and interviews, the Doors oppened my view to alternative ways of enjoy things, music, movies and so on. I dont know how to explain, I just think I owe the Doors and Jim something that grew in my self since I was young, and that I enjoy having. I went through nirvana or velvet underground or Joy division, in movies like taki driver or pulp fiction, books from George Orwell or Albert Cossery, I enjoy so much things that are much known, but at the same time so far away from the ordinary, and I think it all began when I was around 11 years old and saw that amazing Oliver Stone movie...
right on bro...me too 1982 here....I became a historian because i love all that came before me....I went to college because of jim and actually graduated after being a drunk/high college student...but I did it.....the doors inspired me... to think, achieve, overcome, appreciate, live and eventually DIE!.......we'll all meet again in some strange way....
That movie was not good. It does not portray Jim as he really was. I am sorry.
That is wonderful testimony, Joao. Can I recommend that you continue your exploration by reading great poetry, from Rimbaud and Keats and Shakespeare and other writers like Henry Miller and William Faulkner.
Kerri Gentry - Samuel Taylor Coleridge too!
I’ve got a similar story. A few years ago I bought two books signed by Huxley from an auction. Just knowing he once held each one amazes me.
Awake yourself, he wanted the world to awake.
It's obvious in his lyrics. I had never really LISTEN to them as an adult. I just took the words for granted when I was a teenager listening to them, but once you really LISTEN to what he's saying, it's like you're hearing the sons again for the first time.

people only appreciate you after your are gone.....no one expected jim to die so sudden.....but that is why he became a legend as well.....to me he will always be the best!
just 4 years in the industry and look at the legacy they have left us
We might ask ourselves where all his pain came from. It’s not just that he was a “tortured artist.” He was almost always intoxicated to numb that pain. His father gave a “nice” interview but something very sad and miserable was going on in that family. People don’t become addicts out of nowhere. Almost always there is just one place to look.
What place do you think?
@@presence5426 I'm guessing the insinuation is some type of familial abuse. Likely psychological but possibly physical.
I have had this on video played it to bits. Thankyou for sharing.
The Miami trial was a modern day witch hunt.
Yeah it was BS
I think the thought of prison scared the shit out of Jim. I think that's the reason he up'd his alcohol and drug intake.
Kevin Serrick Jim crossed the line by inciting riots 👽
@@michaelserby7697 witch hunt pure B.S.
I believe it was the beginning of the end. Jim needed his freedom. The thought of being jailed scared the shit out of him.

I remember the first time I heard the Soft Parade. Still love it😆
Jim Morrison was a genius with an IQ of 149, which is above genius. The madman poet, who was determined to live life his way, damn the law and authority. And by God did he live his life his way. In 27 short years he achieved things most people could only dream about. He definitely left his mark on this world through Rock N’ Roll and poetry. He travelled the world and had more fun during his 7 year career with The Doors than most of us have in a lifetime. I wonder how much of that fun he actually remembered though by the time of his death. Morrison made leather pants mandatory for all rockstars, he wore them before Elvis did. Jim was wearing them in 1966, possibly before and Elvis wouldn’t wear them until his 1968 Comeback Special. God bless Jim Morrison for bringing tight black leather to Rock N’ Roll, boy did he wear it well, sexy mofo. The Doors music is timeless, it stood the test of time because of the brilliant lyrics penned by James Douglas Morrison. He wrote about things that are relevant to all generations, sex, life, death, war, love, politics, mystery and everything in between. It didn’t hurt that he was easy on the eyes, Jim Morrison was a beautiful specimen of a man, drop dead gorgeous. He was definitely a wild child and his live performances were electric and unpredictable. You never knew what kind of show “The Lizard King” would give you, however, you were almost promised it wouldn’t be boring, no not Jim, he was never boring. 50 years after his death his fanbase is still growing, albums are still being sold, books being written and movies being made. June 8, 2021 the Morrison estate is releasing the entire collection of Jim’s poetry, journals and lyrics, many written in his own hand for $58 Canadian dollars. I’ve already preordered this through Amazon and can’t wait to get my hands on it. I’m so proud of John Densmore for taking Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek to court to stop them from selling there music to another damn commercial, this time to Cadillac. Cadillac offered them $15 million dollars and John remembered the way Jim reacted when they tried to sell Light My Fire to Buick in 1968. Morrison was pissed and vetoed the deal, saying if they allowed Buick to change the lyrics he would bring a Buick on stage every night and smash it with a sledge hammer. Even Jim’s estranged Admiral father (Jim’s estate) showed up in court to stop the 2 Doors from selling the song to Cadillac or touring with The Doors name. Thankfully, John Densmore and Jim’s estate won in court. Thank God Jim’s legacy will be protected. He deserves that. Jim Morrison is a Rock God and The Doors have influenced every rock band on the scene today, however, The Doors stand alone, no one sounds like them. 50 years later and Jim Morrison still has the best scream in Rock N’ Roll, no one has done it better before or since. I love you, Jim Morrison.

Brilliant young man. He was so freaking intelligent he had to be tortured by lonliness.
Shame the sound wasn’t the greatest but I appreciate you posting this. Jim was a unique individual that definitely left his mark in the music world. We haven’t had anyone truly equal him since. Thanks for the tunes and RIP lizard king!
I just recently visited his grave in Paris I've wanted to do that since I was a kid .
I went to Jim’s grave in 1982. At that time his stone was a bust of him with flowing hair and parted lips. We ate acid, smoked weed and drank wine, with a worldwide group of fans. I will never forget that incredible day.
Jim is an American in Paris.
I want to do that before i die.
I really looked so cool just like him, morrisön.
CooL!
I feel so lucky to see such a rare video. I feel like it is gonna evaporate and disappear as soon as I watch it, so I better watch it quick. It's THAT rare.
Being massively creative myself, I am so wonderfully passionate and rebellous. Like Jim, I freely allow myself to be dramatic and. Instinctly know how to stun and charm audiences and people in general.
There won't be another band like the doors very unique and way ahead of their time
Have you heard all them witches?
“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite''
I think no one will leave that legacy of his music I think Jim is the greatest thank you forever
Paris has an underbelly very similar to the French Quarter in New Orleans. Thin Lizzy spoke of the dangers of Paris, as did Johnny Thunders and DeeDee Ramone, just to name a couple of contemporaries. Decades before, all the artists flooded to Paris and lived the "Bohemian" lifestyle. F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda lived in and around Paris, and she wrote specifically about the booze and the drugs. I'm just suggesting maybe Paris wasn't the best of choices for Morrison; the decadence runs deep, very deep.
Paris wasn’t ready for Jim.
it is a mid-eastern marketplace now...
France doesn't (and didn't) have extradition to the United States. That's why Paris was chosen... Jim was on the run...
Hemingway in paris as well
And Jean Seberg alas
A glimpse into a memorable past. Miss the band so!
Amazing doco! It really encapsulates The Doors legend well! Thanks for your contribution.
Im 32 my dad gave me my first CD around 10. Morrison hotel and they have been my inspiration ever since. id give up every band. Every concert iv ever seen in 21 years to go back and see jim with the doors. He is the lizard king and he could do anything.
Im a oil painter and paint doors concerts and jim portraits on many of my canvases. I also enjoy some " urban art " 😉 if you ever come thru Richmond or Norfolk or the delmarva penninsula and see a wall with thr greatest rock shamans to ever live.. Remember that guy on TH-cam 🦎
I think The Doors are really underrated, even considering how highly regarded they are as an all time great Rock and Roll band. They formed in 1965, were given their first record deal in 1966, and Jim died in 1971. Look at ALL the hits they had in only six years together. They really didnt have that much time together before it was all over. I know Jim wanted to be a poet and was tiring of being a rockstar, but had he lived, and stayed in the band, how much more would The Doors have done?
Basically five years together in terms of making records, and they had a double CD that was PACKED with smash hits. My buddies and I used to just play it on a reel back in the 90s. They were incredible, and were what I think is the biggest compliment you can give to any band, UNIQUE. In the greatest era of Rock and Roll, jammed with some of the greatest bands of all time, NONE of them sounded like The Doors.
I wonder how Jim would feel about it if he knew how loved he still is. He was amazing, no one can ever top or forget him. At age 3 I was swept away by their music. That was the first time I ever fell in love.
The first time I ever fell in love was when I saw your face, you gorgeous angel. 🤩

Their lyrics were just more original and intelligent than most pop music Jim was a poet and a bit of a shock rocker with a solid back up band. He came from a military family and did well at school till he quit so he had a certain discipline that people did not expect he could go from zero to ninety in about sixty seconds which was more controlled than most believe. He liked to push boundaries he was inspired and thus inspirational. The movie was good it reintroduced the 90s generation to their music.
You're lost little girl
Anna - Jim did not have a back up band. He was a member of a group called THE DOORS - 1/4 partner in a musical group. It was people like you who helped break that group up. Jim never would have been anything without the 3 other musicians who provided a musical platform from which he made the drama of his lyrics have such an impact. You conept of the group is insulting to John, Ray and Robby.
@@organbuilder272 yeah that's fair I know he always respected them as equals but that is not how his image was always projected he was the star of the group and got the most attention not that that was always good attention when he's getting maced backstage by cops at his own gigs who are supposed to be providing his security and so on. He was doing the shocking things too and taking most of the heat for that as well the other guys were not writhing on the floor or inhabited by a Shaman spirit.
My favorite band 🖤🖤🖤
The End is one of the greatest songs ever recorded.
I did enjoy that documentary, thankyou so much for sharing!
Now it's 01:31 and waiting for the storm!
Fantastic documentary, fantastic band, Jim Morrison is sorely missed ❤xxx
what was neat about Morrison is that you never knew what he was going to do on stage weather interject one of his poems into a song or just start acting like a shaman
Wasn’t an act
Indians scattered on dawns highway bleeding, ghosts crowd the young child’s fragile eggshell mind quote from u kno who
I WANT THIS TYPE OF ROCK BACK!!! SO SICK OF ALL THE SELLOUTS THESE DAYS BURN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY DOWN AND GET BACK TO OUR ROOTS!

I bet you'd like Greta Van Fleet
@@torhildulvestad4599 are you from

Music legit sucks now. It has no soul. It sounds G rated and folky or its totally vapid and about money and sex, in a not sensual way, or it's a cheap imitation of what the 60s-70s had. It's just not about anything anymore. Feels like it has no soul or art.
Nonono
Hey man this is a pretty good doc. With great images. Nice work. Brings back 1979..... ok I was 10 years late to the game, being still in high school after the party was over and a new one just beginning
These are the reason we need time machine to see 60's/70's/80's/90's rock'n'roll hippies legend's, At the age of 13 i started to listen rock'n'roll & they're still best
In the early 80s, I went through my dad's albums for the first time. I started with led zep, cream, Allman Bros, the dead and Joplin. I was 12. 2 years later, I wanted more and bought Motley Crue. I also bought Samhain but it scared me. Years later I fully understood punk and went to so many shows. I was lucky enough to experience the rave scene too in the 90s. Today, I love and miss it all.
Thank you for uploading this... It’s a better first version of “When You’re Strange” ~ with Johnny Depp narrating... Thank you! It’s almost kind for line!
the ORIGINAL BAD BOY of them ALL.
Dark Christian 👍
Oh yeah
Elvis? Little Richard?
Jerry Lee Lewis.
I was young when Jim passed away but remember it clearly. Their music perfectly reflex my first impressions of the world that I was thrown into !
HOLY SHIT! I've never seen this man be ugly for one moment, and you've done it here... WOW
?
what luck to record this before "the end" of the tape , thank Pal ,I'll watch this eryday day
Nice dude. Thanks for putting this up. Coming from October 2019.
I never got to see the Doors. One night a friend and I were driving from Memphis to New Orleans to see them at The Warehouse (1968-69), and we heard on the radio The Doors had cancelled the show. So we made a left and headed to Florida instead. Such carefree times. I regret not seeing them though.
incredible documentary. thank you for posting it
One of the best bands ever
👍👍👍
I actually remeber seein this on vh1 in the late 90's
Me too!!
Probably the most legendary band of all time... Read the book no one gets outta here alive
Yep
Inthemiddleoft....
Thank you for posting.
Jim's candescent path was so vivid it will continue to enlighten generations to come.
This a good documentary that better captures The Doors' psychedelic inspirations than Oliver Stone's movie. Even at the band's perimeter best, rather like The Beatles or The Stones, they were never too pompous to avoid chucking out a love song once in a while, though even the love songs had a twist. For all the controversy, this band are still chiefly remembered for their tunes and artistic ethics.
Let us just open The Doors of Perception...
Wicked! It becomes legendary when you have not only created an authentic entity but also are threadly deeply into an era, a culture... a time on this earth that once happens and never happens again.
Thank you so much for this. Love it!
Never so this doc before. Very complete
This is what happens to most geniuses that come in conflict with a world run by ignorants, politicians and religious fanatics.
Thank you for this upload
I haven't seen this, since the fall of 1998. My Ex girlfriend was big into the doors in highschool and I kinda found it bittersweet to learn more about Jim and the doors.
...IT SEEMS JIM STOLE ALL THE LOOKS IN THE FAMILY AS WELL...
Yes looks that way for sure!! LOL
Agreed. Without a doubt the most beautiful. Doesn't even look like either parent
@@rhodayackez9570 He looks like his mother and his sister.
LOL!
I will luv the doors forever!!!!
Amazing. I wish I was there back in 1967. Really respect ❤️
I was 9 yrs. old in 1967 ... and really didn't get "into" music, especially psychedelic, until puberty kicked in. "Break on through to the other side!"
@@ricardorojas5045 yeah sometimes understanding comes a bit late. But late better than never 😌🍀. I’m happy I have explored art of Doors even though I’m from younger generation and different culture 🔊🤟🏽
incredible documentary, no wasting time.
Jim was awesome. Had a unique style & flair for the dramatic onstage. Their music stands the test of time. I listened to “Peace Frog” the other day & cranked it as loud as it would go. They were jamming. Jim’s singing in it is perfect
