Absolutely one of the greatest songs in the universe RIP Jim and Ray still playing this song in 2022 can't forget about Krieger and Densmore legendary.🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎵🎵🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
I listened to the doors just non stop in high school. that was in the 1990’s. i guess every year there is a new group of 16 year olds falling in love with the doors. theyre is just no one else like them.
I'm still playing this song in 2022 all October month long constantly heard it sixteen years ago and I finally find this treasure salute to you all forever bumping this jam 👍🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🎵🎵🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
I seen them in 1970, almost got to meet Jim, I was about 8ft from him. Girl! he was beautiful!! I can honestly say I was, as you put it, intoxicated by his presence. Since then and even til today, no one has ever made me feel that way. The concert was awesome. If I had 3 wishes, one would be to go back to that day.
too drunk ?! he wasn't drunk if you watch the whole performance, just because he doesn't stick to the usual forma it didn't mean he was drunk he is well known for improvisational skills too, i hate it when people prefer referring to him as a drunk singer instead of the genius poet he really was
agreed. i think it was lao tzu who said that the best leaders guide the masses without the masses knowing that they are being led. the same probably goes for guitarists.
makes me wanna run out the door and buy a bottle of whisky. The Doors' music is drinkin' music. ..makes you feel all these different things, it's soul music...you get your own meanings out of it... 'I need someone who doesn't need me'
everytime I observe Ray, I wonder how he managed to play like that! This is what made The Doors something else! they were not like other bands all pulling and pushing in front of the cameras. You can see the focus in every single artist here. Love them all!
Aneudyù Lozada absolutely right! beyond correct ! what a band what great musicians! still nowadays we only get to listen to the doors very rarely. in the UK Real XS Manchester plays Riders or break on through but very rarely, not even mentioning the chart radios!
RAY MANZAREK, CREADOR DEL SINGULAR SONIDO DE THE DOORS. A DOS AÑOS DE SU PARTIDA. DESCANSE EN PAZ. GRACIAS, RAY. Raymond Daniel Manczarek (Chicago, Illinois, 12 de febrero de 1939 - Rosenheim, Baviera, 20 de mayo de 2013) fue un músico, cantante, productor, director de cine y escritor estadounidense. Fue cofundador y teclista de la banda de rock The Doors entre 1965 y 1973, y en The Doors of the 21th Century (luego Manzarek - Krieger) desde 2001. Sus primeras notas en el piano fueron a los nueve años. Fue pianista de The Doors entre 1965 y 1973; hasta 1971 la banda actuó con su formación original compuesta también por Jim Morrison (voz), Robby Krieger (guitarrista) y John Densmore (baterista).
The slide Robbie is using is actually the lid of a bottle. This video is from a DVD, and later in the DVD there's an interview with Robbie and he talks about it. You just wrap a rag around the bottle, and smash the bottom of the bottle, and keep the top.
Every time I drive past an 18-wheeler on Sunday's I sing to myself "Sunday trucker...." and wonder if the driver is singing that same thing to himself throughout his route.
Just look at Manzarek... bass on left hand and keyboard on right hand, and after Jim died, he even sang. What amazing talent.. Nowadays, you'd have 3 people doing all that.
Love the sheared wine bottle neck Robbie is using to get a bluesy sound. This was the first time Jim sported a full beard in public with The Doors. In Miami it was much more cultivated.
WHOA! Robby Krieger w/ a Les Paul? Haven't seen that before...love them Les Paul "Black Beauties" and I totally dig Robby's unique Flamenco guitar style. Rock on and R.i.P. Jim.
probably my favorite jim morrison, were he didnt give a fuck about looks or money, he was just being the blues man he was. and did a good job of it too
Give me a witness, darling. I need a witness, babe. I got the poontang blues. I got the poontang blues. From the top of my head to the bottom of my cowboy shoes. Build me a woman, Make her ten feet tall. You got to build me a woman, Make her ten feet tall. Don't make her ugly, Don't make her small. Build me a woman, Make her ten feet tall. You got to build me a woman, Make her ten feet tall. Don't make her ugly, Don't make her small. Build me someone I can ball All night long.
jim morrison had a drinking problem long before that, and yeah i can connect to him and the alcohalism he had, because im becoming one my self. yo can hear the feelings and emotions in his singing. usually when someone sings blues and is acually sad, it makes it feel real to everyone listening. even though it was a bad time for jim he still managed to sing and thats what makes it special to me.
Fuckin A, brother! I've had a few shitty cards dealt to me in life and drinking booze is the only way I can deal with it. A lot of people are alcoholics and don't even know it. I'm probably one myself, but I embrace it. I love a good drink! Sometimes it even gives you the jolt your body needs. Anyway, for those that like a good drink and listen to The Doors playing the blues .... keep rockin', yo!
He was 25 but looked 40.. That's what happens when you drink 3 liters of Whisky per day + smoke 60 cigarettes, snort cocaine and take every kind of acid. It was pure self destruction.. He was talented but suicidal. Sad.
Grace slick from Jefferson airplane recounted an anecdote from when they were on tour in Europe with The Doors, in which while walking through the streets of Amsterdam, fans would approach them to offer them all kinds of drugs. They accepted them but did not consume them for obvious reasons. However, Jim took the ones that were given to him and the ones that were given to others. That night Jim had to be hospitalized for an overdose and The Doors had to go on stage without Jim.
Its on 'Absolutely Live', which has since been repackaged as 'The Doors In Concert' along with another live album 'Alive she cried'. The song was never on a studio album.
Gotta love the blues...Especially when Jim sings it. Robby is wearing sunglasses to cover up the black eye that Jim gave him. Jim made out with Robby girlfriend at a party and Robby confronted Jim...
watch the interview extremely after the show robbie has his sunglasses off and he dosen't have a black eye and I think robbie got punched by someone and it wasn't jim
I love this song!! I like how many times Jim Morrison slips in the word motherfucker. This had to have been super controversial back in the late 60s / early 70s. It would be considered controversial today!!
It's 2022 and I'm still playing the doors right now jamming hard to this live version of Build me a woman RIP Jim Morrison and Ray Manzarek Robbie Krieger an John Densmore are still alive the doors greatest of all time salute and God bless to you all always and forever bumping this jam.🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼 🎵🎵🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
This is the BEST version of "Build me a Woman" I just Love it!! Long Live Jim!
Absolutely one of the greatest songs in the universe RIP Jim and Ray still playing this song in 2022 can't forget about Krieger and Densmore legendary.🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎵🎵🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
agreed
Because this version swings.
Um.... hasn't anyone told you.... he's bn gone a while now....!!
Everybody always goes on about Jim Morrison and how good of a front man he was but you've got to admit the doors won't have been the same without Ray
And John and Robby
Very true... I just watched the documentary.."Break On THRU" 2/12/2020.🎶 Manzarek IS A genius!!
The doors wouldn’t be the doors without any of them Jim John ray and Robby
I listened to the doors just non stop in high school. that was in the 1990’s. i guess every year there is a new group of 16 year olds falling in love with the doors. theyre is just no one else like them.
The Doors wouldn't have ever exist without Ray.
The Doors were always at their best playing the blues.
Ironic that in another version of this he goes on to complain about the blues
Amén

Well said, Jude999. I agree heartily! Love this version of Build Me A Woman!
I seen them in 1970, almost got to meet Jim, I was about 8ft from him. Girl! he was beautiful!! I can honestly say I was, as you put it, intoxicated by his presence. Since then and even til today, no one has ever made me feel that way. The concert was awesome.
If I had 3 wishes, one would be to go back to that day.
its been 16 years. how've you been Marianna?
@@TheFPimplol she still thirsty for jimbo
too drunk ?! he wasn't drunk if you watch the whole performance, just because he doesn't stick to the usual forma it didn't mean he was drunk he is well known for improvisational skills too, i hate it when people prefer referring to him as a drunk singer instead of the genius poet he really was
Robbie krieger is the most undervalued guitarist player in the history, he's excellent
I hope he comes to Mexico again :(
sings about a cunt
agreed. i think it was lao tzu who said that the best leaders guide the masses without the masses knowing that they are being led. the same probably goes for guitarists.
To me Jim is looking at his brothers and truly admiring them. He thought they were brilliant and gifted. He loved them.
makes me wanna run out the door and buy a bottle of whisky. The Doors' music is drinkin' music. ..makes you feel all these different things, it's soul music...you get your own meanings out of it...
'I need someone who doesn't need me'
Robby Is one of the best guitar players I’ve ever heard
Ray was the musical backbone of the Doors.
I never get bored of The Doors. Real music.
Not enough Densmore closeups
Dude was seriously underrated
He's amazing in Land Ho. Maybe his best drumming ever
He was special because a jazz drummer really.
For the record; this is April 1969. 'The Soft Parade' performance from this program is incredible, I highly recommend it. LYJ.
everytime I observe Ray, I wonder how he managed to play like that! This is what made The Doors something else! they were not like other bands all pulling and pushing in front of the cameras. You can see the focus in every single artist here. Love them all!
The sound of the organ was so unique. RIP Ray!
yes, it was and we can still listen to Ray. When I type on my PC I think of Ray so I start typing really fast LOL
Elizabeth Faitarone they were perfect
Aneudyù Lozada absolutely right! beyond correct ! what a band what great musicians! still nowadays we only get to listen to the doors very rarely. in the UK Real XS Manchester plays Riders or break on through but very rarely, not even mentioning the chart radios!
No body better than Jim Morrison
the DOORS always the best band from the 60's... and always ... integral part of MY life.LOVE THIS
They were all just as important as each other in and to this music. Doors fans know that it couldn’t have been any other line up.
Ray Manzarek was the glue that held this band together, musically, imo.
They all worked as one well oiled machine... No other band in the history of all time like them and never will be again.... truly amazing ❤❤❤
They were so tight at this point love Morrison and the blues
A fan since 1990 this never gets old
Same!!!
Ray always kills it
Hey fellow music lovers, I just want to claim my seat and say I loved this song and video! It made my day after work.
Ray Manzarek was ***king phenominal ..R.I.P. RAY....

one of their best songs ever. I wish i could shred a piano like ray.
Phenomenal. To think that Jim would be dead in less than a year later, after this performance, sends shivers over me.
This was recorded in 1969. He died in 1971.
I love the Doors best in two configurations: slow blues and ballads.
This is my favorite band right here.
The slide Robbie is using is actually the lid of a bottle.
This video is from a DVD, and later in the DVD there's an interview with Robbie and he talks about it. You just wrap a rag around the bottle, and smash the bottom of the bottle, and keep the top.
amazing guitar solo. a great example of less is more.
Not all rock.
50% Rock
50% Blues
That's what makes the Doors :D
Jim has to be one of the most handsome men of the last century, I mean; Look at him!
I'm so jealous...
Every time I drive past an 18-wheeler on Sunday's I sing to myself "Sunday trucker...." and wonder if the driver is singing that same thing to himself throughout his route.

ray is a machine on that solo.
So great it's really unbelievable.oh hell ya. Blues ! She came!
WHOA! Robby Krieger w/ a Les Paul? Haven't seen that before...love them Les Paul "Black Beauties" and I totally dig Robby's unique Flamenco guitar style. Rock on and R.i.P. Jim.
He used that guitar for slide
By far the best recording of build me a woman (imo). Something about this version is just mesmerizing.
Jim wrote the song too, 100% his
Long Live Jim!! The pride of Tallahassee. We love you Jimmy.
Pure genius...
he had a much higher space than most of us have...i will always adore his poetry!
no words... just true artists.
probably my favorite jim morrison, were he didnt give a fuck about looks or money, he was just being the blues man he was. and did a good job of it too
LOL i've read that this performance was just a few days after the MIAMI incident. dude, i was born in the wrong era, THIS is rock n roll.
Jim really relishing it 1000%
love this jacket too :)
Wish this version was recorded for album use
Jim was like 25 in this video? Wow
true ....
He look like a 35
@@yabinalvirde9600 no,he doesn't
Nini Mtchedlishvili yes he was drink very mucho !!!
@@yabinalvirde9600 i know almost everything he used to do, but he still doesn't look 35 to me. 🤦♀️
love the way the doors went from rock to blues.
That beard, so cool!
i don't know why but the doors just puts me in a certain trance it's as if i smoked a joint every time i listen to their first album.
How I love that vox continental!!!
Great, I love this song
I never made that connection before but now that you mention it I can see the resemblance. I also have to agree they both rock!
Robbie tears it up on the guitar!
agreed, it just blows me away everytime I hear it!
This looks like the PBS Soundstage show...widely available on VHS back in the 80's...don't know if they put it on DVD
Love his jacket ..
Jim's jacket ?
Yes it's great
Jajaja sí
Give me a witness, darling.
I need a witness, babe.
I got the poontang blues. I got the poontang blues.
From the top of my head to the bottom of my cowboy shoes.
Build me a woman,
Make her ten feet tall.
You got to build me a woman,
Make her ten feet tall.
Don't make her ugly,
Don't make her small.
Build me a woman,
Make her ten feet tall.
You got to build me a woman,

she came, she came ; i saw her coming just about the break of day (possible double meaning ya think) laying between the lines
The Doors una leyenda esta version de Build Me A Woman fue tocada en vivo, mas no grabada en ningun audio.
The Ray´s solo
fuck!
that´s great men!
2:12 - 2:39 Yeeah!! Master of Master!! Sir Manzarek
yay jim !! the only one in the entire world that totally ROCKS the bearded look !
I got a one eyed woman, 10 feet tall.
She overlooks half the things I do. Life is good.
Even better with 'Doors'
He was 25 but looked 40..
That's what happens when you drink 3 liters of Whisky per day + smoke 60 cigarettes, snort cocaine and take every kind of acid.
It was pure self destruction.. He was talented but suicidal. Sad.
I'll bet he had fun doing it!!!

Just the way it goes. Adinfinitum...
Ray, SUPERB
Get it ray !!!
I'm a bass player and I fully agree!! HAHA! Long Live The DOORS!!!! :)
This band got me more into blues from BB King to Lee Morgan.
17 years ago. One of the first youtube videos

Shaun Clutts she caaame bey
Its on 'Absolutely Live', which has since been repackaged as 'The Doors In Concert' along with another live album 'Alive she cried'. The song was never on a studio album.
Ray is awesome
Build a woman, great idea.
This band, that I love, is all about Ray Charles backing up Muddy Waters or John Lee Hooker. This ain't no hippie shit. This is pure punk.
He wasn’t drinking during this performance. That’s a fact. Robby can confirm.
This is so great!
look at that guitar slide!!! its huge!!! and jim is freekin smashed... or at least hes askin like it.
Gotta love the blues...Especially when Jim sings it. Robby is wearing sunglasses to cover up the black eye that Jim gave him. Jim made out with Robby girlfriend at a party and Robby confronted Jim...

Untrue. Fool
LES SALIÓ FENOMENAL ESTA VERSIÓN DE BUILD ME A WOMAN EN VIVO..HUBIESE SIDO GENIAL ESTA VERSIÓN EN ESTUDIO..
Si es real...
Jim with a very cool look going on around this time. I'd rank it just behind Robert Plant & Roger Daltry circa 1972 on the coolness scale.
Robbie's slide in underrated...
I love this song!! I like how many times Jim Morrison slips in the word motherfucker. This had to have been super controversial back in the late 60s / early 70s. It would be considered controversial today!!
You stole these words from my mouth. Ray is just great!!!!!!!

im in love Robby´s Gibson les paul custom 57 ^^
love Jim here....He almost seems sober...He looks tired....
The Lizard King at his finest...........RIP Jim 1943-1971.
