The concert is considered one of the better performances by the Doors with lead singer Jim Morrison providing a focused delivery of the songs.[1] The album includes a 22-plus-minute version of "When the Music's Over" plus "Five to One" and "Break on Through". The group also performed covers of Robert Johnson's "Cross Road Blues" and the band’s signature cover of "Back Door Man". Before closing with an extended take of "Light My Fire", Manzarek took the microphone with backup by Morrison for "Close to You".[2]
