Interesting. Those guys all look like they were stoned out of their gourds. Like most guys I knew in rock bands, and they could get away with it. It wasn't like they were playing Chopin. Morrison in the live footage was gone, out there, poor sap. I suspect the "Light My Fire" version heard was recorded in the studio, because the footage doesn't look like it was live to the performance. Wow. How easy it is to forget how spine-chillingly ugly the early 70s were! *shivver*

On the other hand, "Riders on the Storm" was a really good, lasting tune and only Morrison could have delivered it the way he did.
