Listened to the newly spiffed up Matrix Club recordings by the Doors. They had yet to "break On through" and played a tiny club in San Francisco in early 67, (owned by the Jefferson Airplane) for 5 nights, 3 sets a night. Luckily several sets were recorded, so we hear them in their prime, stretching out and relaxed, in front of tiny audiences. Only time Jim sounds drunk is the one of the late sets, singing the original lyrics to Alabama Song "show me to to the next little boy" and doing his fuck fuck fuck chanting. It's a great document, if you like them. I do.

I just started listening to this too last night. I listen to the first CD so far. I'm quite happy with it though I'm not familiar with the previous bootlegs I heard it's quite an improvement. On my simple setup it sounds just fine to me. I liked the two new instrumentals All Blues and Bag's Groove.

The first night's 3 sets are the most consistent, but there's good stuff on the other 2 discs as well. "Summertime" on disc 3 is really a variation on Light My Fire's instrumental section. The End on disc 1 has Jim in dreamy poetic mode compared to the more typical cathartic fury from the fragment on disc 3. Booklet puts it in context, LA bands were not always received well in SF, so the band had something to prove.

Yeah I love The End. It's one of my favorite of their songs. I like summertime too that was pretty good. I guess I like them more psych or Rock stuff from them than the strictly bluesy but even the song called All Blues I liked quite a bit. Paris Blues as I've heard it on streaming since it's not on CD is decent as well and I'm glad I got it. My favorite is the first night and CD material.

One more time. Makes me feel small, insignificant even. We may have a thread for that sort of thing. But it's late. We may have a thread to say goodnight. We had one on Idea. I created that too. Goodnight chickens x
