(Since the description is lacking) This performance was recorded on April 28th, 1969 in New York at PBS Studios. This was the second to last television performance of any kind by the Doors while Jim Morrison was alive. It's also notable as the only time that the Doors played songs from The Soft Parade album on television. Jim Morrison passed away two years and 2 months after this was recorded.

THIS WAS AT 'CRITIQUE': 28th-29th of April, 1969. The doors made seven songs in this tv program and then they made an interview. They asked Jim to read some of his poems, he started to read them, but then he stopped because he said that he wasn't able to read them in the right way to express his feelings. He was so humble!!!

[@deadmansworking4263]

This has always been my favorite version of this song because of its true representation of the Doors as a cohesive band of 4 unique and original forces blended into one... Manzarek with his godly and goose bump producing keyboard playing in conjunction with spot on base lines, Krieger with his intricate guitar picking and his own sense of rhythm, Densmore with his tight but mellow and smooth drumming, and of course Mr. Morrison with his natural-born nack for storytelling and beautiful poetry that has moved me to bliss. I will always love this true band .

[@DIDGCARNAGE]

This song is a shining example of the brilliance that was The Doors, the lyrical depth and fidelity is raw and intriguing which is why Jim is considered a poet, to me this is poetry. The emotional input is there too, this song makes me happy and sad at the same time much like all of their collective works. People today listen to music to bide time when travelling or sitting around with friends, not to listen and appreciate the depth with isn't necessarily prominent in modern music, the lyrics are second place to a good sounding beat. This is why The Doors had no predecessors or successors, they were perfectly unique and produced in my opinion the very best of music in such as short time.

[@stevemarvellous6382]

+DIDGCARNAGE Actually this song was written by Robby Krieger and Jim was reluctant to sing it because of the messiah like lyrics and call for people to ' get their guns' so I've read

Both Jim and Jesus can show you ways of living and can influence you in both positive and negative ways. I've learned to love and accept more readily, and to look out at the world as well as in at myself because of Jim's poetry and The Doors' music. And the best part is if I disagree with him, I'm not condemned to hell. And, I don't worship him. What scares me about religion is that I'm created, and then punished because of certain actions. Why create me at all? Is it then based on fear of hell?
