A Tribute to Jim Morrison (later re titled as The Doors: A Tribute to Jim Morrison and No One Here Gets Out Alive: A Tribute to Jim Morrison) is a 1981 documentary about Jim Morrison, lead singer of American rock band the Doors who died in July 1971.
The documentary explores Morrison's interest in film (he was a graduate of UCLA film school), poetry, psychology, mysticism and sexuality. Excerpts of Doors songs are included with only TV appearances playing "Light My Fire" and "Touch Me" played in their entirety. It features contemporary interviews with Morrison as well as interviews with all the surviving members of the group (Ray Manzarek, John Densmore and Robby Krieger), record producer Paul A. Rothchild and Doors' biographers Danny Sugerman and Jerry Hopkins (on whose best-seller No One Here Gets Out Alive the documentary is based on).
Archive film in the documentary is drawn from Granada TV's The Doors Are Open, the band's appearance at the Hollywood Bowl in July 1968, snippets from the then unreleased film Feast of Friends, the opening scene of Apocalypse Now featuring the Doors' song "The End" and television appearances on The Jonathan Winters Show, The Ed Sullivan Show and The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
Many original photos of Morrison and the band are included from Joel Brodsky, Paul Ferrara, Jerry Hopkins, Frank Lisciandro and Gloria Stavers.

A 1968 self-produced film shares life behind the scenes, live concert performances, and studio sessions with the band that lit the music world’s fire.

Former Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek compiled and directed this video, which brings together a number of television performances and vintage promotional films of Jim Morrison and the group along with footage of the Doors in concert and previously unseen film of the band at work in the studio. Manzarek also directed a new video for the song L.A. Woman, which is included in this collection. Other performances include Break on Through, Light My Fire, People Are Strange, Roadhouse Blues, Riders on the Storm, and six more.

The Doors' Soundstage Performances features live footage from three rare TV appearances during the height of their career from US, Canadian and Danish TV. Material also includes personal commentary and perspectives by band members Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, John Densmore and manager Danny Sugarman.
Culled from three television appearances at the height of the band's career, THE SOUNDSTAGE PERFORMANCES includes 12 songs and extensive interview footage of the band. There are never-before-seen live TV performances from Canada, Europe, and the US, from 1967-'69, including the epic show stoppers "The End" and "When The Music's Over," Brecht-Weill's "Alabama Song (Whiskey Bar)," and the Willie Dixon blues "Back Door Man" among others. Also included is one of Jim Morrison's only on-camera interviews, shot not long after the notorious March 1969 Miami concert where the charismatic front man was arrested for "lewd and lascivious behavior." Additionally, the film includes latter-day exclusive commentary from the surviving Doors. With their genre-colliding sound and boundary-breaking poetic exploration of psychological, sexual, and political frontiers, the Doors are a fascinating gem in the '60s rock crown.
The film includes footage from Toronto in 1967, Denmark in 1968, and New York City in 1969.

A chronological look at The Doors, focusing on lead singer, Jim Morrison (1943-1971), from the formation of the band in 1965, it's first gigs, and first album, to Morrison's death, after years of alcohol and drug use. Along the journey, we see archival footage of rehearsals, performances, and private moments including a Miami concert resulting in Morrison's arrest and trial for indecency. His love of the spotlight, his desire to be a poet, and his alcohol-fueled mood swings lead to a back and forth between public and private desires, successes, and failures. The band's music plays throughout.
