5.0 out of 5 stars Jim Morrison at his best, February 22, 1999
By A Customer
If you buy just one video featuring The Doors, this is a "must have." Jim Morrison and the band are at their best, even though it was alleged that Morrision may have ingested LSD before giving the performance of his short, but intense life.

For those of us from that generation, the music still haunts, the lyrics still reveals and the emotions still remain unchanged by time and memory. Morrison sings, dances, and screams like no one before or since. However, for all the frenzied activity, the simple, direct lines of his poetry echo softly through the years.

Watching "Live at the Hollywood Bowl" is like being alive, then and now.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Cool Concert., April 14, 2001
By 
Mr. Fellini "Fellini" (Orange County, California United States) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This is one of the best Doors performances ever caught on film. It is the only COMPLETE filmed concert of theirs and shows Jim Morrison at his poetic, comic and visceral best. It also shows how The Doors were great in the intricate compositions of their sound and how they were also a great band because Morrison apparently had an idea of how to make a performance visually interesting in his movements, acting and singing. The performances of "When The Music's Over," "Light My Fire" and especially "The End," show the talent these guys really had. Morrison sings the lyrics with intensity and the sense of their poetic worth. "Moonlight Drive" and "Five To One" (which is connected in medley with "Backdoor Man") are especially well-performed. There is also a curious entertained feeling when Morrison begins reciting weird, but effective pieces of poetry. This is evident in the original execution of "The End," where Morrison begins improvising (I think), adding new words instead of the typical lyrics you hear in the album version. The band is also plays incredibly well. Ray Manzarek's organ is haunting at times and the drumming of John Densmore and guitar playing of Robby Krieger are sub-par. This is an entertaining, well-done performance by a great band.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complete Doors Concert On Film - May Be The Only One, February 24, 2005
By 
G. Reid (Roseland, NJ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the legendary Doors at their peak in this, the only complete concert ever filmed of the controversial superband. The concert was filmed live at the Hollywood Bowl during the July 4th weekend in 1968. The concert includes my favorite Doors' song "light My Fire" (extended version.)
