Live at The Isle of Wight Festival 1970 (The Doors) Doors' manager Bill Siddons. A 2002 interview recorded with Ray Manzarek, the Doors' keyboardist, who died in 2013 is also included. The Isle of Wight Festival had some 600,000 attendees and the Doors hit the stage at two o'clock in the morning on August 30, 1970. Their set was particularly dark due to lead singer Jim Morrison's not wanting bright spotlights for the film recording on the band. Much of the recording sees the group bathed in a single red spotlight. Jerry Hopkins in his biography of the band, "No One Here Gets Out Alive", commented on the cold wind
