    In April 1972, The Doors performed at the Rose d'Or Festival in Montreux, Switzerland, showcasing their evolving sound and stage presence. By this time, the band had released their fifth studio album, "L.A. Woman," in April 1971, which marked a significant milestone in their career as it was their last album featuring Jim Morrison before his passing. The live performance captured a band grappling with both the weight of Morrison's fame and the internal tensions that had begun to surface. The setlist during the festival likely included tracks from this pivotal album, highlighting their transition towards a more blues-influenced sound. Additionally, interestingly, this performance came at a time when the band's future was uncertain, making it not only a reflection of their past success but also a poignant moment before a significant shift in their lineup and musical direction.
