nearly all of the songs from LA Woman were actually performed live. In Dallas they did Changeling, Love Her Madly, LA Woman and most likely (although there's no actual recordings and Ray once stated they did never performed it) Riders On The Storm. Been Down So Long has been played during the 1970 tour, Cars Hiss By My Window as a blues improv in 1969. WASP in its early jazzy incarnation during the European tour '68, Crawling King Snake and You Need Meat during the early days and in 1970.
thanks Ray for askin Jim to sing something at Venice beach, in wich two undiscover blessed guys felt the moment of ligth, and later share that moment with all of us.

There's change in the air, and we want to get it started right away. Our plan is to gain subscribers, and then have bands sending us their demos. The music industry can only take auto-tune and synthesizers for so long before a new wave of rock music bursts out.

@timeaification wrong. "when the doors of perception are cleansed everything will appear to man as it is.. infinite." Written by William Blake, used as a title of Aldous Huxley's book called "Doors of Perception" (great book)
@ilikeyouallot In William Blake´s book "The Marriage Of Heaven And Hell", he wrote "if the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite" and Aldous Huxley wrote the book "The Doors Of Perception", both books read by Jim Morrison.
A poet called William Blake wrote a poem The marriage of heaven and hell, in this poem is something about 'the doors of perceptions' Jim and Ray liked the poem but 'the doors of perception' was too long in their eyes, so they decided to call the band the doors...
@anywaybobby i thought the doors of perception was out of an aldous huxley story.... not saying you're wrong thats just the way i recall it being told to me.
john looks stressed in the taco picture...i love Jim's performance here in this song. I just wish Jim had lived long enough to make million more blues albums!
Justin Bieber is coming out with an album of Doors covers. The cover songs will be better than the originals! Great songs like "Riders On the School Bus" and “L.A. Tweenie”… See my channel background for a sneak peek at the album cover! Justin pays tribute to Jim Morrison by posing shirtless with love beads on, like the famous Annie Liebovitz photo of Morrison.
@dollarmtn This was not their last performance. They did, I think, 1 more after this in New Orleans. A concert in which Jim had a break down and refused to play. Show ended early. At that point, the other members decided to call it quits.
Jim was soo fucking hot!!!! I'm a huge fan I have a wall size poster and paintings I've made! Next I'm getting a tattoo of his face the doors rock! Forever and ever
i love how songs today are big for like a week or two, and then everybody forgets them. but these songs that were written 6 decades ago are still on the radio today. rock lives on!
@MrSmokeydog Well, I mean... do you expect them to play their songs exactly the same every single time they play them? It gets boring. If you were a musician, especially a touring musician, you'd probably have figured that out. What is on the record is one version.
@sakalan i think i read somewhere the only played LA Woman live in concert once. i have pretty much every Doors show on my iPod and i still don't have one with LA Woman in it.
Thanks so much for posting this. This has been one of my most favourite songs for over 30 years. We had a radio station at my high school and I liked to play this song...a lot. My teacher ruefully told me he wished she'd walk out the door and never come back . I always got a chuckle out of that but often wonder if she thinks back to those days like I do. Again thanks the memories. I'd never heard a live version before.
after this here the doors only gvae one more concert with jim, and that was a day later on 12th december at the warehouse in new orleans, but that wasn't recorded.
Jim sounds here like a 47 years old blues singer or perhaps Nietzsche like if the german philospoher would sing .Alcohol vanquished his voice. It's very sad and a great loss for music. His vocals were good from 1966 to 1970 ( till Morrison Hotel).So 4 years, what's 4 years? He musta have been really fashioned in not giving a shit with his music as poetry was his first true love.
Really? Whats with this idea that Morrison Hotel is bad vocals? I think that album is quite obviously the peak of his skill as a vocalist. He sounds truely professional with an astonishing range and control. Have you ever tried to sing "Blue Sunday" ? lol
for the record, I grew up in Hollywood and seen the Doors live 3 times there when I was abot 16. Knew people that knew them and others and Jim was a nut case from the get. I stood in a green room with him and a couple others once for 20 minutes just listening to him rant. He needed some friend to lock him in a room like other back then had done to them in LA. We heard about tghat stuff back then but it never hit the media.
Not enough room. I grew up in L.A. born and raised. Started running the sreets at age 12. Started hanging in the music scene taking live pictures at 16. Met a ton of stars in music and movies but it was pretty much just ho hum to us locals around the late 60's and thru the 70's. I was a local at every club in the area and always walked right in past the doormen no matter who was playing or at any club. I took photography at Hollywood high school and used it to get access. Jim was a trippi dude.
I think I seen him at about 5 or 6 party's but I was just a kid then and he really wasn't a big star but rather just another dude. He did get big later on. He hung at the beach area partys the most near Malibu and Manhatten Beach areas.What I remember of him is that he was wasted all the time and he had many girls hanging around. Then again that was the norm in L.A. for musicians. They wanted fame coke and women. If I could go back in time I would have sat down closer to him, who knew.
@urquinaona69 you are tone def, Morrison hotel is great. waiting for the sun has great vocals, and roadhouse blues..the spy..indian summer..etc... why even comment? even at his worst, he's better than you.
in no one gets out of here alive it said during the recording of L.A. Woman Bruce Botnick and Jac Holzman had speculated saying they were hearing Jim's last album as a vocalist his drinking actually made his voice fade in the end which sort of could be like foreshadowing of what was to come in July of that same year.....it's really to bad...his lyrics and poetry are my favorite that I've ever read/heard but I'm only 15 so there's alot that left to do:)
One word describes what should have happened to Jim Morrison:
Intervention.
His bandmates didnt have the nuts to lock him in a room and drive sanity into him. If they had, we would have 20 more albums of Jim and the Doors to listen to.
Other Voices was already half done before Jim even died. He was outta there. There wouldn't have been any more Doors + Jim records probably.. at least not for awhile. Unless they ended up like Zeppelin in their later years... only getting together for an album every 2 years.. throwing a tour in here and there. In 1971 Jim said "I see us doing a few more albums and then going to do our own seperate things" to paraphrase
@soulsurfer56 Ya I hear ya but...it was meant to be man. It was supposed to end up like that...destiny. you know it was quality over quantity. Its a testament to their music...still going strong 40+ years later.
The gitarsolo after 5.18, I can't live without such atmosperes. So glad they made this music, hopefully some other band in the near future will create such special things.
Ok! Now I understand. When you said go back and point our middle fingers back to this time I thought you meant it as in 'f**k that time'... Now I see. I completely agree.
One of the infinite things that is amazing about The Doors, the greatest band of all time, is that they just never did a song the same way twice; true experimentation. It's as if they were mad scientists with musical equipment. There will NEVER be a band like this again. TDFFTD
I have to agree. The Doors, in my opinion, is one of the best damn jam bands period. Jim Morrison was such a sexy mofo and it was a tragic loss to lose one of the 20th Century's best wordsmiths. A true test of a bands talent is how well their portfolio stands up to the test of time. The Doors are often immitated but NEVER duplicated!
@SerhatKBD you're only partially right. In the 60's and part of the 70's it was normal, even for quite famous bands, to play gigs in small places and in festivals, with very little soundcheck, sharing the equipment with other bands on stage. The doors could play the same arrangements of the studio albums but it would have been ridicolous and in contrast with the spirit of rock . It still appens today but only with garagebands gigs for 100$ in pubs around the real world /watch?v=JLiJx6ZvSU8
We are extremely fortunate to have this recorded... only known performance of this awesome song recorded live.... amazing to see the song extended and turned into something the album version never could be. Maybe we can all start a collection and buy the supposed tape from the New Orleans show (the next day and truely the last Doors show with Jim)... they only want a cool few hundred thousand..... every fan tosses in a buck!
It's funny...I remember I saw the Doors live in Frankfurt, Germany, in the summer of 68...the room wasn't even full and the most of the audience left after the Jefferson Airplane,who opened the night,ended their gig...I remember I stayed to see the Doors, that I didn't even know that well,and they played for nearly 30 minutes...but it was pretty exciting,I still remember that!
I have to agree with kelvinkloud...i was there and the only thing he left out was that during the first show of two shows scheduled that night is he almost fell off the stage numerous time...trivia, I still have my stub and it cost $5.00 to get in...lol
then your in delusion... this was performed in '70 in dallas in dec.... morrison was only 1/2 yr from the grave. far from the wiry leather pants lizard king 2 yrs before. by this time morrison was bearded, overweight, depressed & had a prison sentence and mounting legal bills hanging over him b/c of hte miami trial.
shoulda been alot more good times Jim..but thx

The gitarsolo after 5.18, I can't live without such atmosperes. So glad they made this music, hopefully some other band in the near future will create such special things.

Ok! Now I understand. When you said go back and point our middle fingers back to this time I thought you meant it as in 'f**k that time'... Now I see. I completely agree.

One of the infinite things that is amazing about The Doors, the greatest band of all time, is that they just never did a song the same way twice; true experimentation. It's as if they were mad scientists with musical equipment. There will NEVER be a band like this again. TDFFTD
HateDisease 2 years ago 52
I have to agree. The Doors, in my opinion, is one of the best damn jam bands period. Jim Morrison was such a sexy mofo and it was a tragic loss to lose one of the 20th Century's best wordsmiths. A true test of a bands talent is how well their portfolio stands up to the test of time. The Doors are often immitated but NEVER duplicated!

@HateDisease In fact that's called "not practising enough for the gigs..." Nevertheless, great band, I'm glad they were just they were.
SerhatKBD 1 year ago
@SerhatKBD you're only partially right. In the 60's and part of the 70's it was normal, even for quite famous bands, to play gigs in small places and in festivals, with very little soundcheck, sharing the equipment with other bands on stage. The doors could play the same arrangements of the studio albums but it would have been ridicolous and in contrast with the spirit of rock . It still appens today but only with garagebands gigs for 100$ in pubs around the real world /watch?v=JLiJx6ZvSU8

We are extremely fortunate to have this recorded... only known performance of this awesome song recorded live.... amazing to see the song extended and turned into something the album version never could be. Maybe we can all start a collection and buy the supposed tape from the New Orleans show (the next day and truely the last Doors show with Jim)... they only want a cool few hundred thousand..... every fan tosses in a buck!

Jim looks so happy to be ripping into that taco!
I was born and raised in San Diego, now living in SF, and I miss the tacos. My favorite food...Jim knew the good stuff!!!

It's funny...I remember I saw the Doors live in Frankfurt, Germany, in the summer of 68...the room wasn't even full and the most of the audience left after the Jefferson Airplane,who opened the night,ended their gig...I remember I stayed to see the Doors, that I didn't even know that well,and they played for nearly 30 minutes...but it was pretty exciting,I still remember that!

This is sad. Morrison may as well have phoned it in. Maybe he thought he sounded good drunk.

Like the vocal but the overall performance lacks the punch and dynamics of the studio recording.
This performance sounds like it is better than the recording can truly reveal.

I can picture Jim in his leathers, hanging onto the mic for dear life, goading the audience into a frenzy. oh to be young in the late 60's....

then your in delusion... this was performed in '70 in dallas in dec.... morrison was only 1/2 yr from the grave. far from the wiry leather pants lizard king 2 yrs before. by this time morrison was bearded, overweight, depressed & had a prison sentence and mounting legal bills hanging over him b/c of hte miami trial.
