In July 1969 The Doors played two concerts to packed audiences at the Aquarius Theatre on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, California. In addition, the day after the two concerts, The Doors used the Aquarius Theatre stage, still loaded with their equipment from the night before, to conduct a private rehearsal. Both of these concerts, as well as the private rehearsal, were recorded. Bright Midnight Records will release four titles made from these Aquarius Theatre recordings; this is the first of these titles

Live in Hollywood (The Doors album)
Live in Hollywood: Highlights from the Aquarius Theater Performances (WEA)
Live in Hollywood is a live album, released by The Doors. It was recorded on 21 July 1969 at the Aquarius Theatre in Hollywood, California and released in May 2002. The album consists of excerpts of a live show at the Aquarius Theatre the Doors performed at.
With such a plethora of live releases issued over the years (and quite a few with less than satisfactory sound quality), whenever a vintage Doors performance gets the CD treatment, it's understandable for fans to be skeptical. But 2002's Live in Hollywood is one that gets it right. Although not a complete performance from beginning to end, Live in Hollywood plucks highlights from several performances at the Aquarius Theatre in 1969. According to legend, depending on which night you witnessed a performance by Jim Morrison, you either got the Lizard King in all his glory, or a clearly out-of-it gentleman in danger of inciting a riot or getting arrested. These performances were certainly when Morrison and his bandmates were "on," as the group sounds simply fantastic -- offering more than enough evidence as to why the Doors are often considered one of the most mesmerizing live acts of the '60s. Most of the group's favorites up to 1969 are featured here, including fine readings of such classics as "Break on Through," "Touch Me," "Five to One," and "Light My Fire," as well as an embryonic instrumental version of "Peace Frog." Your chance to witness the real Doors on-stage has expired long ago, but Live in Hollywood does quite nicely. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide

Live in Hollywood" features the absolute best of The Doors' Aquarius Theatre concerts from July 1969. The recording is superb, the performances are great, the set list includes songs from all their albums to that date. A few of these tracks appear on "Absolutely Live" but this is a superior compilation I think. A great addition to the collection of any Doors fan
