Waiting For The Sun - Celebration of the Lizard

[nickb]

Hello,

As some of you may know, The Doors' long lost project 'Celebration of the Lizard' was supposed to be released on their third album. However, it was either too difficult to record or the band lost interest, either way it's only been released as a whole in three different forms:

Live at the Aquarius Theatre on Absolutely Live
Live at the Felt Forum, New York
And as a studio attempt on the 4Oth anniversary reissue of Waiting for the Sun.

However, they performed many different pieces of it live, like 'Wake Up/A Little Game/Hill Dwellers' at the Hollywood Bowl and 'Wake Up' at the London Roundhouse.

I always wished Celebration of the Lizard had been recorded successfully so I took it upon myself and combined all their best performances of it into one whole which sounds great. I also synced up footage from the Hollywood Bowl and London Roundhouse and made a video of it and posted it on youtube. I think true Doors fans will appreciate my efforts:

This is strictly a fan video. I love The Doors and I am not trying to violate any terms of use. If I am, then I am sorry, I just think Doors fans and 'Celebration of the Lizard' fans will love what I have done. Again, I am a huge fan!

This is the song that Not to Touch the Earth comes from!

To be honest mate I could not care less if you were sharing Doors music illegally.
Those three have made plenty of money out of us mugs this last 40 years. I will never 'buy' a Doors product again unless I absolutely have to.
I have not watched the vid as these kind of things don't interest me but feel free to share it although this place is a tomb so I doubt you will get any trade here.
I have moved your thread to general Doors as it's not really relevant to the section you put it in and here it can be seen by guests rather than the handful who show interest here..

To be honest once again mate I dunno what one of them is.
They have been and still are my fave band for over 40 years now but I would not give the 3 individual surviving ex Doors the time of day as human beings.
