From 26 to 30 August 1970, rock'n'roll fans from across the world had their gaze locked on the Isle of Wight, where a festival was underway that brought together 600,000 spectators and whose stage saw Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, the Who, Sly & The Family Stone, Joni Mitchell, Ten Years After, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Free, Donovan, the Moody Blues, Joan Baez, Leonard Cohen, Jethro Tull and the Doors in one of their final performances, as Jim Morrison had but a year to live...
But its success was never assured: and ill omens loomed as the concert began. Treacherous weather, blustery winds, and Morrison's refusal to permit the producers to shine floodlights on the stage, the group or the audience all threatened the event. Not the least of the festival's worries was the fact that Morrison was due to appear in court in Miami a few days before the start, on the latest of many, many obscenity charges. But when they got up on stage, all was forgotten and the Doors magic kicked in immediately! The fury of the instruments was overwhelming. And on the organ, Ray Manzarek's pyrotechnics were as impressive as ever. On the mic, Morrison was simply shamanic. The fourteen minutes of Light My Fire alone justify spending some time and money on this gobsmacking live recording. © Clotilde Maréchal/Qobuz
