This version sound's fantástic, grettings from Acapulco, ¿When comming to México in a presentation please?
Who tf Want to skip that intro from a genius?
@@ezequielcuevas5892 You go to Robbie, Robbie doesn't come to you.
@@lexcastillo5575 you gotta right Lex !
@@lexcastillo5575 yeah it was a cool story. I love listening to the background of the music.
54 years ago, 21 years old, Vietnam, Army. That song still is with me as are the nightmares. That's all I want to say.
Perhaps the most profound thing I ever read on UA-cam
Oh, sorry! 🥺
im 21…
The terrible nightmare is the 3 million victims of the Vietnam war, 85% of them innocent civilians.
Rarely does someone say something significant. Haunting!
The body gets old but the heart stays young.
Manzarek and Krieger Defined The Psycodelic side of Blues and Jazz... And Morrison just put it in words... But we cannot forget the groovy drums of John Densmore
Morrison did more than just put the words, he was a composer and guided the band. If he was born with today’s technology he would’ve easily made music like Kanye West, Pharrell, you name it. He even predicted the type of music they make with machines.
@@zylac4305hay una entrevista de Jim donde hace esa predicción ,donde dice con 26 años sentirse viejo .....me gustaría encontrarla
@@zylac4305 Was Morrison even the leader of the band? I've always thought there was no official leader.
You have it backwards. Morrison had the words. Manzarek and Krieger AND Densmore built their music AROUND those words to create the mesmerizing psychedelics that still resonate today due to the “universal” compositions.
Robbie is the most underrated guitarist from the 60’s. His slide solo on moonlight drive still gives me shivers.
Robbie is die
Indeed, Love it!
Who said that he is underrated? You?
@@osmarnobile7745 No, I always rated him equal to Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Jimmy Page.
@@scottbaxendale323 so, why do you say that he is the most underrated? Could you explain me? please sr.
Thanks Robby Krieger for playing this wonderful song I'm 69 and this song will never die. 🎶The Doors 🎶
This is music people. Today’s generation has no idea what they missed. Nothing today comes close.
It makes my heart so warm that Robby and John are still playing today. Gives the people who weren't alive in the 60s a chance to experience it like it's still 1967. Even with both Jim and Ray gone.
55 years later and Robbys still bringing it. Awesome
Yup, tears. 😭 I love this so much. I at 68 didn't even discover The Doors until this year (2023). I feel like I missed so much and have had to make up for it. I bought the collection and have been reading a lot of books including Robby's...such a fascinating history and what a time to have been living in LA...amazing.
The Doors were real musicians and song writers! Almost unheard of today!
No it's not unheard of at all. That's every band...
@@ellie-tk4jy No. It isn't.
@@crupert23225 yes it is.
I would classify it as Jazz-Rock. They did everything, wrote, arranged performed all their own work...
FANTASTIC!
GREAT band, GREAT tune!
Robbie still has the energy and skills - keep going for many years to come - love you!
Thank you.
The year was 1967. Graduated from High School. Same year The Doors and Strange Days came out. Never will forget the total enjoyment of the period. These groups can make a 3-5 minute song for the radio, and stretch it to 30 minutes in a concert hall. 60s Rock Is King.
I graduated in '69. In '67 We drove out to CA and I heard the long version of this on the radio from SF (KPFA?) in my grandma's house. It was so exciting! That same summer Purple Haze and Brown-Eyed Girl came out...
we still had short hair; our folks let us go over to the Fillmore to catch a show: The Doors, Richie Havens, James Cotton Blues Band. Morrison was wasted (supposedly he had been given STP?) but the show was great nevertheless. He did not fall off the stage, and the sound was excellent. It's so great that Robbie is still doing this, and doing it so well.
Fascinating about how the song arose. Never knew about the reference to Coltrane but absolutely!
Only second to Steve Howe from Yes.
i love how everybody on youtube was there
That year is the best year for music.
He wrote one of the most enduring songs of the 60's! You can't help but think of the 60's when this song is playing!
BRAVO
Born in 70, this always grounds me, my parents lived through this music, I loved it
The assembled musicians who joined Robbie in this rendition brought it to a whole new level. Much respect, I think Jim would have approved. My favorite jam of all time, privileged to have seen Robbie many times and been hypnotized by that guitar.
Hello there, good day to you, and it’s nice seeing you here
What an amazing guy and a LIVING LEGEND
True
I'm 69yrs old and have been a huge fan of Robby's talent and rate him highly. There would have been no Doors without his style.
Wow, The Doors, Frank Zappa and Santana all rolled in to one, how cool is this!
Hello there, good day to you, and it’s nice seeing you here
My father was the man responsible,who introduced me to the doors!! I still remember like it was yesterday,glad people appreciate their music!!!!!.....the doors music!!!!!
Awesome. Robbie Krieger is one of my favorite musicians, long live The Doors.
The horn section is amazing 🤩. Robby really sounds great on his solo. Of course he never forgot how to play it after all these years. I love this music set. ❤️❤️❤️
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens. I was 10 years old when Light My Fire was released, when Robby included These Are Some Of My Favorite Things into his guitar solo I couldn't help getting chocked up remembering what it was like being a child growing up and listing to all of this great music when it was new during the late 1960's. Delightful.
Same age for me listening to older brother's music. Never noticed the Favorite things part...another great song!!
Damn Rob is so humble. I love hearing him talk. The way he gives credit to everyone but himself. Hey Robbie, you sir are a legend! Thanks a lifetime for ALL the best jams. The Doors of perception have been cleansed.
Us mere mortals will never be able to fully comprehend what it must be like for Robby to be jamming out on his solo over a HALF-CENTURY after he first laid it down. Thank you Robby Krieger for your staggering contributions to music.
Great book btw for those who have not read it.
I once joined the doors fan club ,it came out of Germany.Once they asked" what is real?
The doors are real"Go Robbie 👍
I didn’t start listening to the Doors until I was 21 in 1980. I thought they were great then and I still do, shows how far ahead of their time they really are.
I didn't start listening until this year 2023...at 67. Ya, I always knew the name, that guy that died and Light My Fire but it wasn't until this year that I went into a deep dive about everything Doors. I am now a fan for the rest of my life. I bought their collection and a lot of books...A documented fascinating history and time for music and to be in LA. Peace. 🙏
Favourite thing Coltrane is my thing too, thanks Robbie and band!!
Young buck Robby Krieger and his mates should go touring. Their rendition of the Doors’ songbook is impeccable.
the original recordings are so, so clean warm and spacious they make my laptop sound golden
That was beautiful!!! Thank you Robby for explaining to us how this incredible track came to be.
Morrison really was quite an amazing rock star. So young with so much charisma and intrigue. Great writer and the band was one of the best in America. Just a bunch of fantastic songs. Don't make em like that anymore.
Best surf song of all time. Driving up and down the coast of Florida in 68-69 looking for waves in Cocoa, Satellite, Sebastian Inlet, Reef Rd, NSB, Ormond, Blowhole. The Doors made travelling easy
More instruments and longer song. Wow, what a pleasant take on this classic😊
The more instruments and the longer the better. I liked the arrangement a lot. They looked liked they were really enjoying playing. Nice touch robbie
❤️🎼🎹🎸🥁I have nothing but great memories from high school (1967) but I love this version a lot👍🎹Thanks for sharing ❤️
Hey, this is very good, BUT it just goes to show you just how incredible it was when 4 guys just let it flow through them like they were taking a walk in the park.
The 60’s can’t be recreated. The harder we try, the more elusive it gets. Those times were a mixture of nonchalant iconoclastic irreverence and uptight anxiety over what tomorrow might bring. We were mixed up between our belated ignorance and our sense of country and what society “should be”. In the midst of that was Elvis and Jimmy Hendrix…..and a really cool band called The Doors. 😎
Nicely put.
@@v.garcia3083 I second that emotion and concur !
I love all these guys of rock 60's 70's ... they are cool !!!
Light my fire + my fav things.
What a masterpiece!
The jazz undercurrent in the band was always part of it, obviously in Ray's organ playing but also in Robbie's guitar. The Coltrane connection he brings up feels quite natural. By the way, this song points forward to early Yes, doesn't it? - another band with jazz and soul influences.
And yes, this is a superb version of LMF.
This is absolutely one of the very greatest rock songs of all time. No other rock song ever recorded was better. As well the Doors as a band do not take a back seat to any rock band. The songwriting and arrangements of this band are remarkable. While Jim Morrison was a great vocalist and wrote some fantastic lyrics, most to the credit of the Doors greatness goes to the three instrumental band members. Their artistic creativity and originality is off the charts and second to none. The Doors Music is so incredibly diverse and overall their sound cannot be placed in any category.
Great to see Robbie playing, especially the solo.
Love the version, the performance, and the story. I got to meet Robbie at a show one night and he was very humble and cool. His show was great. He’s got great jazz in his soul. There is something about this song that is timeless, and simply a canvass for many interpretations. Thx
Great version of a classic song. Different, with the Horns, etc, but very enjoyable.
The saxophonist is incredible; beautiful!
Indeed. Highlight of the performance.
Dan Rothschild is doing a great job on vocals. Dan is wearing a The Specials t-shirt. The Specials are one of my favourite bands and I suggest that you UA-cam The Specials and enjoy some really fun, upbeat songs. Thank-you to all involved in producing this Doors song and uploading it.
0 complexity in a lot of modern pop/rock music, we all keep going back in time to stuff like this, thanks Robbie.
having fun! like frank said "music is best"!
You too having that Frank vibe from this performance?
Variety is the Spice of Life is pure genius. The entire band was talented
Talented + educated, prepared, well studied guys + the cool rebellious expression + passion, devotion, hard work... beyond cool.
Such beautiful music thanks i enjoyed this very very much . Keep rockin robbie and friends love ya guys . Some times music is the best medicine
@Robby Krieger You are the best!
I miss Ray so much. R.I.P
All my love and support from Argentina, Buenos Aires.
Robby does a wonderful job with his guitar.. it’s an extension of his soul.
Do it Robbie!! Do it!!
Your musicians did such a great job with this song and you to robbie blessings . I hope get to hear you live again . Like fine wine just keeps getting better and better thanks
Robbie krieger is great guitarist..the doors were brilliant.
I like how we taps into " my favorite things"....
I liked that trombone solo. And all of it, thanks for sharing.
I really love this jazzy rendition of Light My 🔥 way to go, Robbie! 👍🏽
The Gentleman Robbie He is a Legend. Thanks for keeping The Doors Legacy. The Doors still open lighting The Fire🚪🚪🚪🚪🚪 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just finished reading Robbie's book! amazing stories! one of the best rock bio's ive read in some time. I love how they add the horn solos...gives it more of that jazzy feel. Far out to see Robbie play that solo in 2021!
I finished reading Robbie's book (Set The Night on Fire) yesterday, 11/12/2021. Great book. Clears up a lot of rumors and misinformation about The Doors.
I was listening to this song earlier today and it occurred to me that music of this era was so good because the musicians were influenced by Jazz Musicians like John Coltrane, Miles Davis and Dave Brubeck. Even Ringo said his stepfather encouraged him to listen to Sarah Vaughan and he really appreciated her artistry.
He fit in the doors perfectly
Robbie gave us the eternal flame that lit our generation.
He is one of the 10 greatest guitarists for me ,underrated by the glamour of Jim as a frontman.His values upon fingerboard were so right - inspirated - original - unexpected ! For example ,his solo to "Crawling king snake" still surprices me.
That trumpet solo and the rest of the brass section is something else in the breakdown. Great job fellows
What’s genuinely amazing is that the first song he ever wrote turns out to be the summer of Loves most popular song and a number one single for the Doors that put them on the map.
So he didn’t just hit a home run, he hit a Grand Slam! After this hit, they went from clubs to stadiums.
And he’s still so quiet and humble. The Late Great Ray Manzerak said Krieger was the Doors secret weapon. He also wrote Love me two times and Don’t you love me madly.
Incredible guitarist and songwriter!
*Love Her Madly
AND Touch Me!!
@@allendulles2481
Yeah, Manzerak said Krieger was their secret weapon and he was right! He wrote some classics! But everyone assumed they were Jim’s songs because they suited him so well.
Jim did write the line about our love becomes a Funeral Pyre. Only Morrison could rhyme Fire with Pyre! It was brilliant!

@@dynjarren8355 They were so great!
Chi ha avuto la fortuna di vedere i Doors in formazione originale è un essere umano molto fortunato a mio parere,from italy
500 yrs from now this song and many others from the 1960's will be alive in some form or another. It will be revered and listened to with amazement...
love his guitar tone. Such a classic. It reminds me a lot of Zappa's tone (maybe it's even the same guitar model Zappa used)
I can hear that too.
Zappa used a Gibson SG for a number of years
Inspirational is a word I'd use ot describe you.....and AMAZING!!!!!!!!! U sir are a GOOD soul............
The Doors, about the most creative, talented bands to ever take a stage. The best of the best.
Lite my fire is still a relivent song I love it as all the Doors songs freaking GREAT STUFF ROBBIE
These kids are Great!
So glad I got to hear this awesome version of a classic song
What a band.
I can imagine these musicians playing the soft parade...! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Light My Fire is one of the anthems of the 60's and more, of revolutions of the body and the mind. After the magic of the time I can understand wanting to keep it going. Me too! But you can't recreate something as unique, as living as "Light My Fire." Just can't be done. It's like trying to paint a picture of a flame. You can get close, and people might say, "Oh, that's just like a flame (or any living thing) and they might be right. "Like" the real thing but NOT the real thing. Rock on Robbie!
Robby still JAMS!!!!! Love it!
Nice version of this song.I would like to see Robbie team up with the great, Eric Burdon again. They sounded so good together,
Watching Robby and ALL the musicians do Light My Fire made me cry. Long Live the Doors! Those licks were as good if not better than after 60 years
Robbie is underrated mastermind behind many the Doors hits. People tend to think Jim wrote every hit, its not quite right
What people? Ones that weren't their?
Я в первый раз услышав эту композицию ,до сих пор не могу наслушаться и восхищаюсь исполнением этой песни!)В ней есть что то волшебное)))))
31 год слушаю))
Bravo Robby.
Keep on rocking
This is like the deluxe DELUXE improv version. Just let it flow. Fantastic!
Bravo! I just don't know what to say... Wonderful, great, brilliant, so good, man! Thank you, Robby Krieger.
Enduring brilliance and magic!
Love it! Very much in keeping with a Doors live jam to my ears.
This will always be my favorite song in life. With tears and emotions flying high thank-you Robbie Ray John & Jim
Certainly not a bad choice if you had to pick just one song.
How nice to listen to great musicians 👌
that singer put out my fire..
One of the greatest songs of all time, it's a masterpiece
Fantastic! Grew up in West Virginia 50-60s, where bluegrass was king but I loved the Doors
One of my all time favorite songs that I always loved playing along with, but I couldn't get enough volume from my little old record player........ Man I loved The Doors and still do! Thanks for this great time.......
This is so amazing. Fun to hear the backstory. Thank you, Robby Krieger!
Back in LA in the 60’s…The Doors..The Seeds.. Love….the good old days….Honorable mention,,Blue Cheer; Summertime Blues..Clear Light; Mr Blue..The Music Machine;Talk Talk..Otis Redding; sittin’ on The dock of the Bay..The Chambers Brothers;Time has come today….Quicksilver Messenger Service; Pride of Man…
I love it, "These Are a Few of My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music thrown in the mix.
Keep going Robbie !
Cut it , we saw it every night at a drive inn I love that show 4 days in a row👍🎵🎶
i thought he was breaking into Soft Parade for a moment
This is DYNAMITE!!!!! All of it is delicious. But shout-out to Chuck Ellis for her wicked solo, from a fellow trombonist! And the segue into My Favorite Things is... wonderful. Thanks to all of you for this great performance. And, my goodness, hats off the great Robby Krieger for writing it!
In 🇲🇽 Mexico where im from the Doors are huge!! We love them and love that Robbie still bringing it to live, wonderful version
Shit I misspelled Robby sorry people
EXCELLENT! I saw Robby and Ray a few years ago in Phoenix Arizona. i Couldn't get a ride, so I missed the original band at Dinner Key Auditorium In Miami many years ago. Robby has always been one of the greatest and most innovative guitarists. Thanks for posting this Wonderful video. A great team of musicians and well produced. "DOORS", always one of my favourite bands and i have enjoyed playing their music as a drummer. i started playing in 1965
You musta been a baby
What A BEAUTIFUL RENDITION OF A CLASSIC......❤
Light my fire used to be one of favourite things indeed 🥰🙌
The first time I heard LMF, I knew
a new era was coming in music and
attitude. The magical psychedelic
Respect to all these gobsmackingly excellent musicians! Wish John Dinsmore could've been there too!
