Jim Morrison's live performances have been one of the most important dynamics of the band achieving their iconic status in rock music. This particular live show is early in the bands career during a period when the band's live escapades were growing increasingly theatrical. Recorded on September 17, 1968, this newly released set presents the band mastering their psychedelic sound. All the band members are there in support: the dynamic interplay between Ray Manzarek's swirling organ lines, Robby Krieger's fluid guitar phrasing and John Densmore's sharp, jazz-informed percussion. Jim Morrison, deep-voiced and brooding, pushes each performance with a hypnotic intensity. Highlights include 'When the Music's Over' stretches and coils while 'Back Door Man' retains its raw Chicago-blues swagger. 'Light My Fire' becomes a vehicle for lengthy instrumental exploration and 'The Wasp (Texas Radio & The Big Beat)' is delivered with Morrison's poetic cadence fully intact. Even the shorter pieces like 'Hello, I Love You' sound sharper and more vital than their studio counterparts. This live album is a chance to hear this band at during their live peak with some of their best material.
