Summary: Great document of a calm night.............
Comment: Another tape witness of the captivating crudeness of The Doors....In this night Jim seems to be in another thing but he takes us again to the center of the madness, of the folly, of the beauty....great sound, nice booklet...Another good excuse for not to leave this trip that the doors propose us in spite of the time..listen it....

Summary: Clean sound, but lack of energy
Comment: I've heard a couple of officially-released live Doors performances that are pretty good: the two unedited performances The Doors live in Detroit and The Doors live in Philadelphia. The new set recorded in Pittsburgh is not on par with the others. The sound quality is fine but (and I think you'll notice this in even the first song), Jim seems to be on autopilot. He is doing everything right, but just not expending any more energy than he has to. The band seems to mirror his lack of energy. I'll be honest and say I didn't finish listening to the show. After the first few numbers I was worn out.
For those of you looking for better live Doors shows:
1. The Detroit show was, I believe, the longest show they ever played. They seem to be enjoying themselves and the energy is good throughout.
2. The show in Philadelphia has a couple of unusual selections, pretty good energy, and the way "Wake Up" leads into "Light My Fire" makes it one of my favorite Doors moments ever.

Summary: History in the making.
Comment: I enjoyed listening to history in the making. Very good concert. The only thing negative about the CD was that at the end of the recording it sounds like a defect. I don't know if the "clicking" is suppose to be there. The first time I heard it, it was annoying. Now, I'm getting use to it. All in all, listening to this concert made me feel like I was in the audience.

Summary: Essential Doors
Comment: After slurring the blues on the three-disc "Live in Boston," Jim Morrison comes alive for this remarkable Doors concert. Recorded on May 2, 1970, "Live in Pittsburgh" may be the group's finest live album to date - even better than the Detroit and Philadelphia releases. For 79 minutes, the Doors deliver the goods with excellent versions of "Back Door Man," "Roadhouse Blues," "Mystery Train" and "Light My Fire." The 22-minute "When the Music's Over" is simply astonishing. Throw in a rare performance of "Someday Soon" and you have a definite keeper.

Summary: Awesome Album
Comment: If your a fan of Jim Morrison and the Doors, then this album is MUST OWN. Even tho this was recorded in 1970, it felt like I was there in the crowd, great moment in history. RIP Jim

Editorial Reviews:

Recorded on May 2, 1970 at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena during
The Doors final tour with Jim Morrison as lead vocalist, LIVE IN
PITTSBURGH captures a spectacular concert performance from the
legendary quartet. A single-disc tour de force, the album features
over an hour of incendiary energy from Morrison, keyboardist Ray
Manzarek, drummer John Densmore, and guitarist Robby Krieger as
they take the audience on an epic musical journey. The powerful
recording was expertyly mixed and mastered by the Doors longtime
engineer/producer Bruce Botnick, who recorded several shows
from the band s now-historic 70 tour on multitrack tape for the
Absolutely Live album. Along with classic Doors hits and choice
covers, highlights include Morrison s improvisational riffing during
an exciting 22-plus minute version of When The Music s Over,
leading the band into bits of songs they d never played live.
