The Doors will release Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival 1970, on DVD+CD, Blu-ray+CD and digital video on February 23rd. Directed by Murray Lerner, the project captures the historic last concert ever filmed of The Doors, whose August 29 performance was featured alongside sets by The Who, ELP, Sly & The Family Stone, Ten Years After and Joni Mitchell, among others.

The whole show has gone down in rock folklore. The Doors hit the stage at 2am, before The Who, and deliver a 7-song performance.

“Our set was subdued but very intense,” keyboardist Ray Manzarek later stated. “We played with a controlled fury and Jim was in fine vocal form. He sang for all he was worth, but moved nary a muscle. Dionysus had been shackled.”

The original concert footage has been completely recut, remixed and restored, including color-correcting and enhanced audio in 5.1 Dolby Digital sound. It has been mixed from the original multi-track material by longtime Doors engineer / mixer / co-producer Bruce Botnick.

The DVD also includes a mini-movie, This Is The End, which presents 17 minutes of interviews conducted by Lerner with guitarist Robbie Krieger, drummer John Densmore, and original manager Bill Siddons, and adds archival footage with Manzarek from 2002.
