Boot Yer Butt!: The Doors Bootlegs is a four-disc box set released by Rhino/Elektra Records for the band The Doors, featuring songs that were recorded as bootlegs during concerts of The Doors ranging from the years 1967 to 1970.
This is part of previously unreleased material of the Bright Midnight Archives collection of live albums by The Doors.
" Gathered for official release in 2003 as the four-disc set Boot Yer Butt!, these lo-fi recordings are genuine real-time events: We hear the inebriated Morrison ad-libbing, the band struggling to keep up or pushing the music even further out. Many of these versions document, as Marcus writes, “the drama of a band at war with its audience,” reflecting Morrison’s determination to take the Doors out of the realm of entertainment and into confrontational living theater.
This spirit matches Marcus’s own fierce commitment to bringing back a sense of rock as an Event, a series of ruptures in History, and to rescue the music from the dead time of repetition and nostalgia. "
