4.0 out of 5 stars pretty great, October 24, 2006
By silly narwhal "sillynarwhal" (Portland, OR United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
No, Jim is generally not as "hungry" or as vocally flexible range-wise here as in the first couple years of the Doors' existence, perhaps (check out the Soundstage DVD for sheer perfection). But to dismiss these performances as drunken poetry recitals is just plain false--but then, similar criticisms were launched even in 1968 by those who had a set notion of what goods the Lizard King should be expected to deliver. Not only is the sound quality superb, but to these ears there's plenty of energy and magic. I mean, how much more inspired of a performance of "Been Down So Long" could you want from Jim? Or how much more beautifully sung a "Crystal Ship?" "The End" also--though the beginning lines are less than ideal with the band & Jim getting out of synch, some serious mojo is stirred up in the middle, with Jim in a deep poetic space. No, you don't get "the killer awoke before dawn;" why should Jim have to always visit that particular room (fans were singing along to those lines by 1968, for crying out loud) when he had so many others to choose from. The beauty is that, like the Grateful Dead exploring Dark Star, Jim is free to wander wherever he wants each time out so that each is unique & special, for both audience, and just as importantly, for him & the band.
"Touch Me" is a big treat, with Robbie jamming instead of a saxophone--nice to hear this with just the band filling all the space. Really like the "St. James Infirmary" back into "Love Me Two Times," too.
Perhaps this isn't the hottest Doors ever played, but it's pretty damned great--I know I'd have counted myself lucky to have attended one of these shows. And I'm very happy to have this document as consolation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Neat , Pretty Neat, Pretty Good, Awright, September 13, 2001
These new releases from Bright Midnight Records are very exciting. The Doors recorded numerous concerts during their career and now, with the authority and supervision of the remaining Doors, these concerts are now being released. This particular CD is a sampler of some eight shows throughout 1969-1970. The performances rate from amazing (Touch Me from the Aquarius Theater, 1969) to unusual (Love Me Two Times w/Baby, Please Don't Go/St. James Infirmary medley from Boston, MA 1970). When these guys were on, they were an unbelievable performers. For the most part, the three remaining Doors were always on. The question was Jim. Did he want to put on a great show, or did he want to just have himself a good time. When he wanted to do a great a show, it was just that. These releases are a treasure trove of music just waiting to be enjoyed by true Doors fans. This particular CD gets 4 stars due to the fact that it is a sampler and therefore the lack of continuity detracts from the CD as you get various songs from various shows. However the full concerts recordings are impeccable. It is as if you are there from start to finish. You should seek out the new CD entitled "The Doors at the Aquarius Theater, Second Performance" This is the second show from their 1969 performance which was partially released in 1983 on the Alive, She Cried album. If you recall, the track, "Gloria" this was a rehearsal that was recorded in the venue prior to that evening's performance. Great Stuff and you should check it out. Let's Roll!

4.0 out of 5 stars Bright Midnight: Live in America, February 5, 2009
By Bjorn Viberg (European Union) - See all my reviews
Bright Midnight: Live in America is a live album with Doors that was released 2001 and is compilation of performances in many different US cities between 1969 and 1970. The liner notes are written Danny Sugerman. The CD booklet has a cover photo of Morrison. We also get some black and white photos of the other members of the band. 4/5.
