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.
