Ray Manzerak deserves respect. Playing the baseline and the keyboard rhythm and leads is an incredibly act of talent.
Jon Lord, Rick Wakeman and Rick Wright too ! But yes, Ray was amazing 🤟🎹
Ray was one of the best ...

Isn't that the same as playing boogie-woogie?
@@johnstorton Exactly. I thought he played the bass parts with his feet which would be harder. IMO
What balls to play a song like this live. Greatest rock band ever.
dangerm this song is art, this song is the future of the 60s
future for all centurys...
I love this song! one of my all time favorites!
Balls like that no longer exist in Rock...
DocHoliday2123 Rock doesn't even exist anymore..only in documentation, and in the hearts and minds of some of us that witnessed Rock with balls.
This is basically 4 different songs. What a masterpiece
Right! Splendid and sublime transitions ✨
It’s pretty outta sight.
Absolutely 💯! Bro Jim was like a rocknroll massiah.
No, it's one song. It's not basic in any way.
Yes 🙌
Jim never sang before The Doors.
That always blows my mind.
Sounds like he's been singing for 500 years.
I wish he still was....
Yep, Scotch and Cigars will do that!
Beefheart1 *whiskey not scotch lol Jim was a whiskey man
EXACTLY!!!
He couldn't read a note either.
No song sounds like this. No band sounds like this
I don't know any bands or groups that could pull off 7-10 minute songs this good. They were special.
Haha ça il est unique en son genre, c'est toujours bon de le revoir ❤️❤️❤️❤️🐺🐺🐺🐺🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😈😈😈😈😈😈🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
apocalyptic 😅
YEah... that's nature...
Morrison had his own, you have your own , present whatever suits you...
I believe that they are so progressive rock.
Jims voice is literally perfect. If he stayed sober in his later career, imagine what could've been.... the real GOAT
Jim was never really sober during his career and probably would have never been as creative as he was if it wasn't for booze and drugs
WRONG, Jim was sober before his career, ofcourse he has tried drugs before even the band was made, but after the rehearsals and first couple of performances, yes , yes he would do as much as he wanted to. Jim was already so smart and knew about the energy of different substance effects. Not just him but anyone would of done the same.
Doors formed in 1965. This was 1969 and he died in 1971. So this IS the latter part of his career. Around this time he put down the psychedelics and picked up the bottle.
Sobers for sissies
So true ❤️
This is not a concert . It's a conviction of a man's soul pouring out on to the stage accompanied by some of the coolest musicians on Earth when filmed.......
Correct.
Not a gig, concert or performance or show, just really special and unique.
I could have said a cathartic experience, but I hate buzz words 😘
No one watching took their eyes off Jim because they simply had no idea what he was going to do next.....
It was all they could get in the wake of the infamous Miami concert! What a great performance.
@@ernestintownandjackintheco1024 In today's world nobody would have hardly given a shit in Miami but back then things were a bit more normal, the world was not yet _THAT_ ready for Jim Morrison. Lol. I think it really just immortalized his persona more than anything. 😂
@@DeckPrototypes Generally true, but an indecent exposure charge (which I don’t think happened in Morrison‘s case) would still get you arrested as Shannon Hoon found out.
This song is a masterpiece. It has everything in it, classic music, blues, rock, funk, and the lyrics are fucking amazing, just a pure representation of the chaotic carousel life is. Jim is just perfect here, he rocks!!!
Truly! A masterpiece, yes.
I always interpreted the title as Jim looking out on Sunset Blvd. from the inside of a bar; hence " soft" parade.
Any insight on this?
It cannot be overstated the sheer genius of the music and oh the lyrics. His magnum opus
@@brucemarshall3446thanks for asking, yes it could certainly be likely your interpretation. Knowing how Jim Morrison was a visionary poet I think that the Lyrics are this misty representation of human life as Jim saw it in his haunted dreams.
@@massimiliano_bartoliniI concur
Johns drumming cannot be ignored here. The timing on the fills and ability to command the kit and keep such an operation in time is impressive
Omg yes. Densmore manzarek and Krieger were absolute geniuses of their respective crafts. And then there was Dionysus. The born singer with no vocal lessons or history as a singer. The probability of four such gods amongst insects may never be seen again. So far ahead of their time
Yes! ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!
@@MrBlick76 Yes sir!
I don't know much about playing drums, but his style reminds me of the early jazz period.
and all on the simplist kit you can get.
When I saw the Doors live, at the University of Michigan, on Oct 20th, 1967,they played the entire Light My Fire album from top to bottom, without a break. After the concert was over (it was homecoming for all of us letter winners) we didn't even see Jim and the band leave the stage. 10 or so minutes later, we asked ourselves " What the hell just happened ". The Doors mesmerized and hypnotized us for 10 minutes AFTER they had already gone. That, to me, is what The Doors did...to everyone. Rest in Peace, Mr.Jim Morrison. You were one of a kind. ❤
By reading your comment it also just makes me mesmerized too. It's amazing to know people that are still alive and kicking who have watched the doors live. What a treasure. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your experience. Do you have more to tell? Please do. Its fantastic and exclusive. Hugs from Portugal. Miguel Batista
Cool story. I was born in 1982 but get very nostalgic about the the 1960s and also the 1920s. Pretty strange, maybe past lives. I'll see stuff like Doors concerts, Stones concerts, The Andy Griffith show, Sullivan, etc. and it's like I was there.
I was about to say they did the entire self titled album for that show because that was all the material they had up that point outside of a rendition of Gloria and a few others. But Strange Days had just come out in September of '67, so to see them do the entire 1st album top to bottom, they might not have ever done that anywhere else, you sir are lucky.
Iggy pop was also there
I always feel this performance is on the edge of insanity.
gonesville
You are absolutely right my friend!
It ls more than that, Jim is by this stage in Free Enlightenment. He can communicate with The Universe through time and space.
Man I found this performance on a trip . I was already full into Doors but I found this on a comedown in the middle of.the night. Not doing well at all . And I heard that intro with the organ....... man.
And then the screaming in the mid section. It helped me though. Deep memories
@@theeman5144 There is something magical about their music. It can't be explained, or described.
Probably one of Jim's best performances. He's gone past being the Lizard King and is now the old Mystic Shaman.
To bad he didnt perform like this all the time
@@gregstephenson8475 So true.
part Sinatra
No. :'D That's just stupid. He's the Lizard King.
Mojo risin era..
Nothing today compares. Nothing.
Never!
rusty booker Nothing today even comes close to this. This was real talent. No autotune, no nothing. Instead we got DJ Khaled, Justin Bieber, and Kanye West who butchers a song by Queen by talking the lyrics instead of singing them and everybody thinks he's some musical genius. 😫
If ya couldn't be there in person there's TH-cam...
Absolutely not!
I was there in person...those were the days
That is the greatest front man to ever take a stage. EVER. My word, what a beautiful man. What a sound from four unbelievably gifted musicians.
Really beautiful
Can’t get enough of those mysterious, mischievous Morrison smiles.
You can tell Jim is having so much fun with this song.
GOD was showing off when HE created Jim Morrison.....we will never see the likes of him again. RIP Mr Mojo Risin
Satan got him
Jeez
@new wave girl Jim Morrison created Jim Morrison.
I totally agree.... never ever again
Correct! #100
As much as I love the album version, this one is even better. The “heavy” second half of the song is so good here. Jim’s still showing some flashes of the Lizard King energy. All four of the guys are at the top of their game.
showing some flashes of the Lizard King energy? dude, really?
This is way better than the album version.
@@nataliahendrysiak9912 what??
@@p.b.palaciosalmafuerte3463I mean he's here having one of the peaks of his Lizard King energy and mind states, one of the pretty last, but not just some random flashes
@@nataliahendrysiak9912what he said
Most bad ass PBS program.
This was a great show. Like with Ed Sullivan he challenged the producers and director with Build me a woman.
Supposedly this was their first public appearance after the Miami fiasco.
Man, if only bearded hobo Jim Morrison would have survived The Battle Of The Bathtub. He was already rocking the 70's look; Mr Mojo Lizard Rising would have LOVED the 70's parties.
I'd like to imagine him hanging out at Studio 54, drunkenly spinning around to "I Feel Love"...
Dont let Morrison catch you trying to petition the lord with prayer
You cannot petition the lord with prayer!
I petitioned the Lord with prayer before I heard this song. Morrison was furious. I never did it again. But I did light my fire a few times. He was ok with that.
LOL
@@jayrox40 Why not?
loool
Greatest frontman ever
Aye
He and Scott Weiland.
Freddie Mercury, but I agree
I wanna see some ACTION out there❗
Com todo respeito ao nagual!
"Oh! Ray!" :'-) I love their friendship so much, I hope they get to jam wherever they are
This is the best part of the trip! 🍄🥴🤣
👍😂🌈🏵️🎶👌☯️😊
The organ sounds so beautiful
:^)
In the zone
Amen!
Doors trademark
ray was special
I think this is the best live performance by The Doors that I've seen. Jim is humorous and passionate and the band are both tight and loose. If you can be all these things in one performance.
Have you seen the Hollywood Bowl concert? That was unbelievable. Nothing against this performance but he also did a performance of "The End" probably in '67 that I cannot find on TH-cam anymore and it takes you on a journey. It's like a mystical experience or something in 10 min.
@@lemurianchick Do you happen to know the name of the performance or where they played?
@@Skip.8221 matrixx
@lemurianchick YES!! The Hollywood Bowl performance was, in my opinion, the absolute best from beginning till end.
@@hartcityparanormal115Strange how certain fans perceive a concert. I have no issue with the Hollywood Bowl show, but Morrison was mostly subdued in that compared to this. Now that could've been the rumor that he dropped acid before it, or it could've been because Mick Jagger was watching, as they discussed beforehand how to use these bigger stages that bands were starting to play. Jagger basically learned what not to do from that show and I know alot of Doors fans that thought it was a boring show.
Johnny Ramone of the Ramones said the Doors were the greatest rock band. I agree. It's astounding how many great songs they had and their image was unreal, I mean look at this, it's dangerous, it's like watching a serial killer about to explode
No one else could act out their verse like Him. It was theater within a band. No one's done it since
bowie
@@kelvinkloudu mean the trans guy that died a couple years ago? Jim made it real
Jim smiled at 1:56!! Wow, this was so much fun!
I noticed that.
Noticed it at 1:10 also. Wonder what he was thinking. Have a feeling, but who knows
That wasn't Jim, it was the Shaman who smiled.
Whats also amazing about this performance is that the entire band is playing this raw and Morrison's natural voice sounds great with no studio overdubs.
Jim turns his back while the band is jamming absolutely classic. I loved the soft parade album
One of my favorites also. Member of the 27 club
When Jim was on, as he is here, he was electrifying. I rarely play the album version, but I watch this incredible live performance over and over. The band kicks ass in order to keep up with Jim’s energy.
I rarely play the album version too but this live version just blows me out of the water and makes my love for this band stronger.
So much for the myth that the Doors had disintegrated in the Soft Parade period.
Exactly
Jim had his issues but I loved the guy
too bad it became more and more of a rarity..
The doors had balls..to do this shit live is crazy
Edward Hester you wrote exactly what someone wrote over a year ago!
@@ghytgb haha i see tbat know.. Great minds think alike..and you gotta be on the ball to like the doors right? Right
Edward Hester but I don’t think it took balls to play this song. They are great musicians and played it very easily.
@@ghytgb
Yeah but to say, "YOU CANNOT PETITION THE LORD WITH PRAYER!" on national public television in 1970 was picking a fight with the "moral majority." That's pretty ballsy considering the possible ramnifications.
@@jpw9012 not if you think religion is a load of horse shit, it's quite easy
This is the part of the trip, the best part, the part I really like... :)
does he means psychedelic trip?
Hilly Billy Indeed lad..
Felipe Wender Mendonça Classic Morrison
Proud to be a part of this number
Felipe Wender Mendonça Love the way he stuttered it on the studio version
This is possibly the best performance in history. I love the Doors. Thank you.
A Quick One While He’s Away by The Who on the Rolling Stones Rock N Roll Circus
This man was a genius and the best front man ever. The Doors are playing live for a PBS special, because the The Doors were practically banned from playing anywhere in the country. And you see jim, ray, john and Robby give it their all playing for only cameras. The best band ever imo.
Jim is not dead and just wrote a book

@wildcatter63 Jim is better than The Beatles.
.
Raider Rod New haven was the first time a musician was arrested on stage now it’s an FBI building how ironic
And this special was never aired on PBS when all was said and done.
@@MattPinard Ron Clooney talks about his latest novel, Mr Mojo Risin (ain't dead) th-cam.com/video/W8q0ZjBErB0/w-d-xo.html
One of the most poetic musical piece in rock history. Yeah, Jim was a prophet.
juan roberto Navarro Agreed.
juan roberto Navarro He was a pisshead
juan roberto Navarro a prophet to Hippies and Rock music
Dont petition him with your prayers
@@newrisingsun6785 and your a poop butt,so?
The "Things that areknown..." quote is Jim Morrison quoting William Blake. I became aDoors fan in 1971 when the LA Woman album wasreleased, I was 15. The Doors were "our" band they being from LA and so were my friends and I, grew up in Altadena and Pasadena CA. Overthe years I've read everything I can getmy hands on about the band and have combed everywhere for every bootleg and also all of Ray Manzarek's records. Being too young to have seen the band my best friend and I used to see Ray Manzarek every chance we could get. And saw Robbie Kreiger play the Whisky when he had the band Red Shift. But Ray was always our favorite, he carried the Doors torch and did it well. The last time I saw Ray was in 2010 in Sacramento and I was lucky enough to be able to chat with him for a bit. I'll be 66 in 8 days from this posting. To all of you fellow Doors fans, carry on and Peace!
I wish Robbie and John would somehow make it to the east coast.
Here we see a man on a path of self-actualization - intent on living in the moment every second of every day he’s given.
Crosses all kinds of boundaries, Jazz, Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Prog Rock. Masterpiece of music! Not many bands could pull this off.
If this isn't the best live recording every done by human beings, I don't know what is.
I don't know, the Monkees listen to the band from 33 1/3 revolutions per monkee is pretty far fucking out there. But for PBS, yeah this is cutting edge. Jim is so drunk it's insane
@wildcatter63 oh yeah dolenz had a great voice, Randy scouse git is in my book a prototype for punk. But we're talking live network TV, so that is where my comparison was made. But in terms of overall quality, and it's not a knock on the pre fab four, but the doors were something truly special. The Monkees we're better than they ever had a right to be, and there is droves of great material to mine, the doors however to this day inspire intellectual discussion
No it’s not, The WHOs 15 minute my generation on Live at Leeds is the best live Lp ever.
Studio version much better
Zeppelin at the Royal Albert Hall.
Morrison was a Florida guy. This makes perfect sense
Cobra on my left Leopard on my RIIIGGHT!
I'm proud to be a part of this number! The fucking coolest song that no one knows..
Morrisons beard was perfection! 😍
The 221 dislikes are from people who petitioned the lord with prayer
Or tried to
Yes,probably all Democrats
yes they all talk to GOD EVERY NIGHT....AND sometimes JESUS shows up
@bazooka201 Actually the dislikes are people who thought this video was really about Soy-Boys opening and closing Doors in their tight spandex....
🤣🤣🤣, they don't get Jim, The DOORS, or lyrics. They need there are spoon fed to them. Like if you get the last reference and you'll be on my team.
The fact that they did this live is amazing. This is from their biggest studio produced album. And the fact that it's four songs in one...
I wish I could’ve watched them live in concert.
Leo Jim there shows always got cancelled or interrupted which was what made the Doors a legacy to Music freedom love sex drugs and Rock n Roll
I never got to see them live, obviously as I was born in 77, but I was fortunate enough to be at the VH1 storytellers filming.
@Bryant Pace there appears to be a stick jutting out of your sphincter
You and about 100 million of us others also.
Its a damn shame to be born in the wrong era
The Doors never disappoint
Clearly this is their best performance of this song live. Jim was waiting for the next line at times. He was prepared here . Great stuff
That’s what I noticed too. Must be very hard to know where to start singing in the middle of a jam.
Morrison was totally mesmerizing.You can't take your eyes off of him.Unbelievable presence.
The scream YOU CANNOT PETITION THE LORD WITH PRAYER, is even more crazy in the studio version.
Never ever will there be another band like them, absolutely awesome!
Probably the greatest most original band of ALL TIME. UTTER GENIUS X G
This live version is so much better than studio version. They are so tight and feed off each others energy, especially Jim. Can't imagine him with other musicians and clicking together like this.
One of their best tunes, not sure why it never got as popular as some of the rest.
Look at Jimbo pouring his soul into the lyrics he sings (in my humble opinion, some of his best) from 5:35 onwards.
As always the band shines, what musical beasts!
Everything must be this way!
@wildcatter63 I was a fan at age 20 - now I'm a fan again at 46 - cyclical? Maybe. The Doors always bring me back again.
Totally agree about the Soft Parade - it rocks
LOL I call him Jimbo too.
One of their best songs, but on their weakest album.
It didn’t become as popular because it was so heavy my fav ok all of them
Sometimes I feel alone in this, but the Soft Parade is my favourite Doors album. I must have played it for one year straight. Nothing else. The orchestration and musicianship, plus what I believe is a stoned Morrison singing and ad-libbing.....I just LOVE it! Easily in my top 10 albums of all time, coming in around 6 or 7. These old clips are outstanding and thanks for sharing!
@Quintus Horatius Flaccus I know! Many...bigger Dooors fans have told me how wrong I was. Don't get me wrong, all their albums are great, especially the first one! I suppose this was the album that did not leave my turn table when I read that biography of Morrison, and didn't leave for about a year. The music was so amazing. But thanks.
@TOADMANE Thanks! You nailed it!
You are not this and the Doors are my faves too :)
Soft parade !!!! My favorite also. It’s the best sing along album ever. Best loud on road trips , start to finish. Like blazing saddles, once I press play, I’ll play it to the end 🤠
You're not alnone, I love that awsome yet harshly treated album. I love the orchestration and don't consider it a downside but a feature which makes the album outstanding and unique in its atmosphere as it doesn't spoil anything to me, it suits the songs nicely, and sometimes even add some psychodelic vibe the simillar way it does in the Yellow Submarine LP by the Beatles. I can't understand why people demand the Doors to sound the same on each album. I enjoy the album for what it is.
Da-yamn. They nailed that one. That's how professionals do it.
Correction: DAYUM!
@@lemurianchick Yes. This works, too.
Incredible performance. Jim is amazing as always and the rest of The Doors are also firing on all cylinders. Jim Morrison is the greatest lead singer/frontman of all time.
How's about Robbie Krieger rocking that Gibson SG, yeah!
Talented composer too.
He was a true musical genuis, Robbie. A craftman with a completely unique style, impossible to recreate.
So did Tony Iommi! Rocked that SG.
Love is playing and time, class and elegance. Seems playing an SG with p90s here
Fuck yeah Robbie! :)
Jim turns from teen rock god to old blues singer.
in 4 months time.... lol
He was a character!!
I'm an old blues man and I think that you understand. I've been singing the blues ever since the world began.
No matter how tousled, self-destructive, and spiraling out of control he became as a person, Jim Morrison never lost his creative brilliance or unparalleled charisma as the shamanic frontman he was, who the world tragically lost too soon.
Just over 50 years since we lost Jim and still feel cheated, what else would he have given us? RIP Jim & Ray...
When I was back there in seminary school

Welcome to the Soft Parade
All our lives we sweat and save
Building for a shallow grave
Must be something else we say
Somehow to defend this place
Everything must be this way
Everything must be this way, yeah
The Soft Parade has now begun
Listen to the engines hum
People out to have some fun
A cobra on my left
Leopard on my right, yeah
The deer woman in a silk dress
Girls with beads around their necks
Kiss the hunter of the green vest
Who has wrestled before
With lions in the night
Out of sight!
The lights are getting brighter
The radio is moaning
Calling to the dogs
There are still a few animals
Left out in the yard
But it's getting harder
To describe sailors
To the underfed
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
What got us this far
To this mild equator?
We need someone or something new
Something else to get us through, yeah, come on
Calling on the dogs
Calling on the dogs
Oh, it's getting harder
Calling on the dogs
Calling in the dogs
Calling all the dogs
Calling on the gods
You got to meet me
Too late, baby
Slay a few animals
At the crossroads
Too late
All in the yard
But it's getting harder
By the crossroads
You got to meet me
Oh, we're going, we're going great
At the edge of town
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
Having a good time
Got to come along
What got us this far
To this mild equator?
Outskirts of the city
You and I
We need someone new
Something new
Something else to get us through
Better bring your gun
Better bring your gun
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
We're going to ride and have some fun
When all else fails
We can whip the horse's eyes
And make them sleep
And cry
Thank's..for the lyrics!
This guy was a genious
He's not dead and just wrote a book
www.amazon.com/dp/B074DGP3BJ/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1
@Jacob Frank I can positively assure you he co-wrote it, his second book out soon further proves it
Then you didn't read it close enough, Jim was a prophet, Second Son of Mary incarnate, I know this because his signing voice was mine and all the lyrics we wrote together have since come true, I have his same middle name, and same mole on the left side of my face and if you heard me sing in a studio you wouldn't be able to tell the difference, we are twin Sons of Mary hosting one body, Jim was reborn/reincarnated 1974 thus, this is his book, if you don't believe me read the lyrics to Shaman's Blues and listening to the recording where two distinct voices are heard
@Jacob Frank I agree with you Peace and Love, but lack of belief in Jim's true spiritual identity given to him from birth by St. Mary doesn't make that fact untrue and if you don't believe what I'm saying I've a photo of a veiled woman above the sun to show you:)
*genius
El mejor grupo de USA sin duda
One of the best bands ever
Man I got to admit these guys were badass back in they're day
Densmore is terrific on this song. Especially on the album version where it sounds like he has three arms. Great stuff.
Morrison Lives!!
03:13 I do agree with Jim Morrison: this is the best part. It's simply great how they change the mood of the song from a 'happy' one to a 'dark' one. This song is a masterpiece.
when he says the monk bought lunch it goes into probably the coolest transition ever.
♥️🖖👍ANYONE,ANYONE, 2024👍🖖♥️😎
R.I.P. Jim and Ray. Jim has gone down as one of the greatest singers of all time. Ray is easily the greatest keyboardist of all time, hands down.
Burton Cummings and Nicky Hopkins are the best.
I had never seen this performance. The Doors were amazing. I've been a fan since I first heard "Hello, I Love You" in 1968 (I was 9). It was the summer and I was at a local lake in Wisconsin. I remember hearing playing from a jukebox by the cafe. It's been over 52 years and I still see that little girl listening....
Jim's "morphine smooth" vocals are sooo smooth!
Morrison was one of the best performer ever..charisma, theatrical upstanding, expressive mysterious energy..very extreme and eccessive when he was ok he reached the top..great live tv show for an underrated masterpiece poem as the Soft Parade..fantastic..
Actor as much as singer
That line... Little woman in a blue dress, girls with beads around their necks, kiss the hunter in the green vest... Who has wrestled before... With lions in the night... Has been stuck in my head all week. What powerful lyrics. Who even writes like that anymore!? You can ponder that line for days. I think it's a shot at hippies. They can leave their carefree life but they depend on meat eating real men at the end of the day to get the job done so they can live their hippie lifestyle.
correction: deer woman in a silk dress
I think the whole theme of the song is about the values we hold in our lives. The lyrics you wrote I think is about how we value a man or woman. We value a man by his strength and a woman by her beauty.
This version that was originally performed on PBS is much better than the orchestrated version that was on the album. Much more intensity!!
My husband's father was lucky enough to see The Doors four times. This version to me is even better live OMG. Favorite song of theirs hands down.
"All our lives we sweat and save, building for a shallow grave" All my decades of listening to the doors, I've never seen this live. Very cool
Love Jim's voice, so fucking powerful!
That was absolutely amazing. IMO, it's one of the best Doors songs, very underrated.
I think the entire album was underrated. I listened to the song “Easy Rider” and can’t help but think that it was perhaps written and recorded for the movie “Easy Rider” which came out later the same year as the album. I wonder if the movie producers didn’t use the song because of the Doors being black listed because of the Miami incident
3:25
"This is the best part of the trip. This is the part I really like.....really like it. Yeah, alright "

*psychedelic
@YouMake MeReal Incorrect. "Psycedelic" is NOT how that word is spelled and I still stand on my original posting of "psychedelic" (which I have properly been spelling for the last thirty years of my life), which indeed DOES indicate my intelligence level (and lowers yours). The word "psyche" refers to the mind, hence, "PSYCHology" (the science and behavior of the mind) and "PSYCHEdelic" drugs (drugs which alter thoughts, perception and behavior of the mind).
Have you ever heard of the group called the Psychedelic Furs?
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Psychedelic_Furs
How about the radio station called Psychedelicized Radio?
psychedelicized.com/
Or how about a spelling of it, directly from Webster's online dictionary?

Seems like the only one who didn't do their homework was you on this one. Ironic that you were quick to jump the gun in an attempt to squash me, point the fingers and prove me wrong, when in fact YOU ARE WRONG! Seems to me that logic would have led you to research the proper spelling of the word PRIOR to an attempt to correct me and accuse me of being unintelligent BEFORE proving to the world of your own unintelligence. Case in point: If you are going to attempt to accuse someone of being wrong and unintelligent, then you had better make 100% sure you are correct first. Trying to win a battle of intelligence by being unintelligent won't be in your favor.
And for the record, my initial spelling correction to the author wasn't in an attempt to be a wise guy or a know-it-all. I meant the utmost respect. The only know-it-all "acting smart", but "NOT BEING" smart is yourself.
@YouMake MeReal You are a real joker! To the rest of the world who didn't catch on to YouMake MeReal's idiocy and instant cover-up, let me clue you all in...
1. ) He accuses of me of improperly spelling a word and being unintelligent. Meanwhile, his own supposed "correction" is in fact improperly spelled. I described this all to him in my last comment just minutes ago.
2.) So after I literally just posted that follow-up to him, telling him HE is the one who is wrong, he's not man enough to accept fault or apology.
3.) Instead, I refresh my page just minutes later, only to discover his origial posting to me has been edited to cover up his mistakes and to pin guilt on me by editing his posting and shifting everyone's attention to a lack of a capital 'P', rather than his original argument of spelling. This guy is a real con! Fortunately, I always screen shot comments before people edit them to neatly win a battle by cover-ups like these.
4.)
A.) Suddenly, his original spelling of "psycedelic" that he tried telling me how it was spelled was now edited to the correct spelling of "psychedelic", as I have said all along.
B.) Suddenly, he has capitalized the letter 'P' in HIS word, which originally was lower case (then attempts to retort on me with a lesson that I didn't capitalize my own 'P'). Smh!
C.) Suddenly he's added a period to the end of his original sentence, which wasn't there prior.
Anyone think I'm making this up? No worries, I have the original screen shot as proof, as I have dealt with jokers like him in the past who accuse, find out they're wrong and don't have the decency to apologize. Rather, ego kicks in and they feel the need to endlessly win a battle they've lost by childishly editing their original posting and still finding some way to accuse me of being unintelligent. Too funny. Now I'm accused of not capitalizing a word I have politely corrected someone on.
Oh, here's more proof of irony: if in fact YouMake MeReal's original "correction" comment to me was spelled "psychedelic" (as he accused me of being wrong about), then there is no point to edit your posting to say "psychedelic", if it was proper to begin with because there's no point to be made of accusations in the first place, Einstein. Smh!
His original post to me: "psycedelic. If you're gonna act smart, BE smart first "
His now edited comment AFTER I proved him wrong: "Psychedelic. Capital P, If you're gonna act smart, BE smart first. "
We all see your subtle, yet pathetic cover-up to win the intelligence battle. Notice how he purposely inserted the words "Capital P" into the equation, insinuating to the world that he originally spelled 'psychedelic' correctly from the start? He attempts to cleverly shift the attention of the people by insinuating that his argument is about capitalizing a 'P' and NOT any loger about his original argument of the word 'psychedelic' (which he tried lecturing me it was spelled 'psycedelic' and accused me of being unintelligent). Duh! Hey joker, we caught on to your idiocy. You've lost this battle and my previous screen shot doesn't lie. Just another fool who isn't man to admit guilt or simply apologize. Instead, it's a cover-up attempt. Clever attempt, joker. Funny that when I submit actual proof and facts via web links to examples of proper spelling, he shifts to a plan B cover-up mode to avoid making himself look as stupid as he is. Fail!
@YouMake MeReal I don't have or use PhotoShop. You make no valid point. Just fess up to guilt, man. Grow a set for once in your life! You initially came at me like a vulture, arguing that I was dumb and that I was trying to correct another user's spelling by improperly spelling it myself. Here it turns out that YOU were/are wrong, not me. Rather than admit guilt or apology, you refuse to and attempt the cover-up to save your ass from looking stupid to the world for being wrong. Simple as that. I caught on to your clever attempt at lies and you know damn well that's the truth. And no, you didn't edit it to remove a comma. You edited it to save your ass from looking stupid by trying to correct someone who was already correct by thinking that your spelling of a word was correct when it wasn't. You are precisely the problem in society these days. Nitwit! Readers, don't believe this joker. I have the evidence.
Funny that when I POLITELY correct someone's spelling in an attempt to educate someone, as any human should....then along comes mister dipshit know-it-all who immediately thinks he's right (and he's NOT), then accuses, cons, covers-up, lies, retorts, creates a huge scene. All for what?? Simply for another human being with an emormous ego too big to swallow to accept guilt and apologize. Unreal mentality! I caught on to you right away with your cover-ups and so did everyone else, I'm sure. Smh!
That voiceeeeeeeeee. that keyboardss, that drumssss, that guitaaaar!!!!!
Every time Jim sings the Doors of perception are flung wide open and we enter gladly, breaking through to the other side.
There are so many great bands from that period and I love to listen to them all from time to time but the Doors are something on a whole other level. It’s great that there is so much high quality video/audio of them and they will only grow in popularity as new generations discover how profoundly talented, raw, and thought provoking they were.
This is the best PART of the trip. This is the TRIP. T..the.. best PART
love my Jim
That part gave me chills
What did he say?
All our lives we sweat and save building for a shallow grave. Nearly fifty years on, nobody's got the message. Oh, well, when all else fails we can whip the horse's eyes and make him sleep and cry -- Morrison was always sneaking philosophy in his lyrics, he's hinting at Nietzsche's madness at failure to understand the human condition.
"Nearly fifty years on, nobody's got the message."
Is that "nobody IS got the message," or "nobody HAS got the message"?
oh piss off pls.
an apostrophe indicates missing letters, if you want it to be grammatically incorrect then you can assume "is" while naturally you know it's supposed to be "has".
Turok Tucker yes my brother, Mr. Morrison was one of a kind...
Perhaps Nietsche could not abide not attaining nor remaining a Nietschean Ubermensch, a superman. Vielleicht dafur wird er verruckt.
Это выступление самое лучшее которое я видел, даже выступление в европе 1968 не было так эмоционально исполнено Джимом как здесь. 20 раз за день я переслушиваю эту песню
This just shows how Jim and his brothers could do anything that they tried . And to the guy who said best front man ever... You nailed that one brother ! anyone who understands this music knows that it's beyond words how much we love it....!!!
Jimbo is tripping in heaven 😀😁😂🤣😎
Do they eat tripe in heaven .. lol ... just fuckin with you
Tripping
I love how this song takes so many different directions and captures so many different moods.
....as well as Jim you have to give full Respect and appreciation to Manzarek, Krieger & Densmore , 3 incredible musicians in there own right... Absolutely Brilliant Band...
Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws. - Jim
Everyone else: "Music is a form of art" The Doors: "Music IS art!"
this guy's mindset was Way Beyond what we can fathom
3:54 that Break is amazing..
Gawd, The Doors are THE BEST. So many GREAT songs and even EPIC songs. Even their less heralded songs are - at worst - GOOD songs. They don't really have a BAD song, only good - to great - to EPIC.
jim morrison, wins the benjamin button award here. Among other attributes, he will always go down as the most rapidly aging rock star in a short time frame of all time. this performance was may, 1969. literally only 5 months after the smother brothers show when they did, touch me. pull that up and contrast both. no joke, morrison looks literally 10 years older in a mere 5 months! I admire his ballsy, not give a F attitude, but wow that was quite a transformation. morrison lived the life of 5 rock stars in 5 years. to his credit, he wasted little time while on planet earth.
See me change...
Do you know when they did star this compositión ?
Wildcatter... I get it. Morrison was all in, it’s why he’s a legend. He took method acting techniques and applied it to the music realm. For a guy with no formal music background and very little influence in it till he was 22, it’s almost savant what he pulled off. He was a master at ttaking narrative theme from his literatrue background amd combining it with his talents and interest for theater and in turn converging both components it into what could be done w/in the realm of rock. In some sense he was the American Bowie.... obviously sad, this was ones of his last acts. The final fruits were seen in the great la woman album. Quite a coda.
@wildcatter63 ... agree. its interesting, bowie was very articulate & talked a lot about his past & his influences when he was alive. but he interestingly never mentioned morrison that I ever read. yet, as you state he was very tight w/ iggy pop (who also knew ray well) whose most important influence was morrison. iggy saw morrison live & was close with key members in the doors orbit. He also was nearly like a brother w/ bowie, in some of bowies most important developmental years.... my take is, he studied morrison very closely & came up w/ several of his most vital concepts from the goundwork morrison had already laid out. to admit or talk about that, would be too much like a magician explaining his tricks.
@wildcatter63 crazy date accordance. that cant be coincidence. If it was, damn, fate was playing quite the chord.... july 3 was also the day pickett took his Va boys into their wall of steel fate. jim was of Va military lineage dna wise.... summer can be quite unforgiving.
