I've heard some bootleg tapes of the Felt Forum show and they're fantastic. I don't think the Doors were ever given credit for being a great live band because they didn't have a virtuoso instrumentalist like Hendrix, Clapton, or Garcia in the band but the Doors didn't need a virtuoso because they had Jim.

Jim made the Doors live performaces as varied and intresting the best improvisational bands because of his incindiary talents as an agitprop performance artist.
