Must have for Doors fans........2006-05-28

Although all of the concert footage can be seen on other DVD's, the insight from the surviving members of the band make this film worth buying. The band members speak about individual songs and also build up each preformance with behind the scenes stories concerning each show. An excellent Doors video.

Awful.......2005-08-08

I was looking forward to seeing the doors perform their music on DVD but was disappointed. The audio is extremely poor on all the PBS performances. Not the Doors at their best. The only highlight is The Doors performance of 'the end' at the CBC in Toronto. Everthing else should never have been put on disc.

Awesome DVD.......2005-03-25

There is some very rare footage on these discs. I am a huge doors fan and thought I had seen most of there stuff - not this. Completely awesome - if you like the doors - get this.

classic footage.......2005-01-13

For any Doors fan, this is a must have DVD.

The sound quality is exceptional, especially when one acknowledges the fact these performances were recorded over thirty years ago.

This isn't flashy. The Doors are just playing some exceptional music. Certainly, someone raised on contemporary pop music would find this utterly boring. This DVD is not for people who need semi-clad dancers and strobe lights to make a music performance entertaining.

Jim Morrison is captivating in a very subdued way. It's quite fortunate these performances were recorded. The Doors, mostly because of Morrison's drug use and unpredictability, were quite hit and miss in regards to their live shows. These moments show Morrison at his best.

This is a gem amongst a lot of crap.

Fantastic, Mesmerizing, and Captivating.......2004-11-16

The unique thing about this DVD is that you get to see the band change before your eyes. The first song recorded at a Canadian TV show type setting shows 'The Doors' doing probably the most outstanding version of "The End" ever put to audio/video ever. Even though the Oedipal section is eliminated it is absolutely mind blowing (To Say The Least). Morrison is steaming. This performance capture the bands pre 'Light My Fire' fame remarkably well.
The second set of songs was recorded in Europe (Sweden I believe) and Morrison is seen in his prime bellowing out classics such as 'The Unknown Soldier', 'When The Musics Over' and more in sizzling hypnotic form. I was completely mesmerized by this part of the DVD (Morrison has some type of hypnotic quality to him in this video along with the sound of the band thumping behind him).
The third set is from the post Miami days. Morrison grew the beard, began dressing like a bum, and seemed a little more subdued (If not shaken up) as a result of the Miami fiasco. Still, you won't find a complete performance on video anywhere of 'The Soft Parade' and despite the mediocre video quality the performance is titllating. Its what the Doors were all about.
