The Doors “Live in Copenhagen” presents a previously unreleased concert recorded at Falkoner Centret in Copenhagen, Denmark on September 17th, 1968.
The 2-LP set pressed on crystal-clear vinyl features the entire early show, including electrifying performances of “Break On Through (To The Other Side),” “Light My Fire” and “Hello, I Love You,” among others.
The Doors had made their first trip outside the U.S. in 1968; near the height of their popularity and driven to top the Jefferson Airplane (with whom they shared the bill on a couple of stops), the band was electrifying on their European tour. “Live in Copenhagen, 1968” features the L.A. quartet’s September 17th early show at the city’s Falkoner Centret in its entirety, pairing classics like “Light My Fire” and then-current hit “Hello, I Love You” with such deeper cuts as a full version of “Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)” and “The Wasp (Texas Radio & The Big Beat),” which wouldn’t see release until “L.A. Woman“. Originally a limited edition Record Store Day release, “Live in Copenhagen, 1968” captures Jim Morrison and company at their most focused and forceful – it’s a must for fans of the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers.
