Movie Reviews of Doors - Soundstage Performances
Movie Review: Love The Doors
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a 2 hr DVD featuring vintage Doors' stage performances spaning several phases of the band's evolution. Along the way you get insightful dialogue from surviving Doors' members(Krieger/Densmore/Manzarek) along with former manager Danny Sugerman. Their discussion include topics such as Morrison, The Miami Incident, meanings of certain famous Doors' songs, etc.
The first featured performance in Toronto showcased a young Doors' group that was beginning to form its national identity. I found interesting their choice of attire compared to their latter incarnations; definately a lot more casual later on.
The Denmark performance is in black & white and showcases a Doors' band at the peak of their fame. They perform some of their most well known songs and Jim's got that classic "rock-star" look with his leather pants and all.
For the New York PBS performance, Jim is fully in his bearded, older look along with a more subdued persona. The band is also interviewed on stage by a "hippie" looking host who seems to admire their music.
I thoroughly enjoyed this DVD from beginning to end. This is my first time watching these performances, which I found to be both entertaining and inspiring. For me, I especially love the band's PBS performance. Overall though, this DVD is a nice treat for both old and new Doors' fans.
Summary of Doors - Soundstage Performances
The Doors Soundstage Performances are a truly unique compilation of three completely different Doors performances at three distinct stages in their career. The concept of the "Soundstage Performances" laid the way to assemble all three appearances. The majority of the material has never been seen before. Not only is it rare but it is startlingly great. Providing commentary are all three remaining Doors: Ray Manzarek, John Densmore and Robby Krieger. Even without an audience, the Doors mesmerize, playing for nothing but the cameras. Morrison still delivers electrifying performances, whether reciting poetry in Denmark proceeding "Love Me Two Times" or getting it on during "The Soft Parade" - Jim Morrison's charisma, beauty and brilliance shine during all.Track Listing:
