 “The early show went off well but the late show was a killer ... Many of England’s pop aristocrats were there: Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Cream, Traffic, and movie stars Terence Stamp and Julie Christie. As the Granada crew filmed every song, Jim performed with a contained passion and an animal grace that surprised even the other Doors and their crew. They began with a deadly “Five to One” and tore through seventeen songs. “The Unknown Soldier” was rapturously received by the long haired young crowd, since the English were generally against the American presence in Vietnam. Jim cut “Crawlin’ King Snake” into “Back Door Man,” then took the band through an abridged but dramatic “Celebration of the Lizard” that brought the house down. After “Hello I Love You” they went into “Moonlight Drive,” during which Jim recited “Horse Latitudes.” After a howling ovation, the Doors came back and jammed on “Money” until the gray London September dawn suddenly broke through the Roundhouse’s glass skylights, an epiphany for everyone present.”
