Ray Manzarek on the Doors' 1970 Boston concerts
Gillian G. Gaar, Goldmine, 21 December 2007
ON FRIDAY, April 10, 1970, The Doors were scheduled for two shows at the Boston Arena. The 7 p.m. show was respectable enough, beginning with some fierce wails from Jim Morrison before bursting into 'Roadhouse Blues,' and concluding with the band's biggest hit, 'Light My Fire.'
