The End (Medley: Across The Sea / Away In India / Crossroads Blues / Wake Up) 49:06 The Doors band members are Jim Morrison, John Densmore, Ray Manzarek, and Robby Krieger. Live at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970 was recorded at the Isle of Wight Festival in England on August 30, 1970, and this was released by Eagle Rock Entertainment. The concert was the group's final appearance as a foursome outside of the US and also the last full filming of a Doors concert. A huge crowd descended on the Isle of Wight at the last of the three original festivals, in 1970; The Guinness Book of Records estimated the total attendance at between 600,000 and 700,000 people. The Doors hit the stage at two o'clock in the morning on August 30, 1970. Their set was particularly dark due to lead singer Jim Morrison's unwillingness of film spotlights to be used. Much of the recording sees the group bathed in a single red spotlight. Jerry Hopkins in his biography of the band, No One Here Gets Out Alive, commented on the cold wind and poor weather that hampered the performance. Hanging over Morrison was his trial for lewd and lascivious behavior from a March 1, 1969, concert in Miami. Less than a month after this concert, on September 20, Morrison was convicted and sentenced to six months in jail, with hard labor, and fined $500. Morrison appealed but died in July 1971 before the matter was legally resolved. John Densmore said of Morrison, “He was like a pot of boiling water with a lid on top. He didn't move a lot, but he sang really strong.“ Manzarek said of the show, “Our set was subdued but very intense. We played with a controlled fury and Jim was in fine vocal form. He sang for all he was worth but moved nary a muscle. Dionysus had been shackled.“ Source: Wikipedia
