The Doors-Absolutely Live (1970)

"Absolutely Live" was The Doors' only live album while they were active, a fascinating and unique double album.
What is most striking about this recording is that it does not include any of its successful singles, which shows its groundbreaking character, also the powerful versions of songs by Bob Diddley and Willie Dixon, thereby demonstrating where their roots were, and it is equally Remarkable the fantastic medleys that are included here.
It begins with Bob Diddley's classic "Who Do You Love", which they take to their field, and continues with the first medley with 4 songs, culminating in one of the epic moments from the album "When The Music Over".
Then comes the turn to the fantastic "Break On Through" and then surprise with "The Celebration Of The Lizard", epic poem music 14 minutes long and say goodbye with a long version of "Soul Kitchen".
The Doors were unique even to record live albums, absolute masterpiece.
