Info:
During their three week engagement at Ondine in New York in March of 1967, The Doors make the first of two 1967 appearances on Clay Cole's Diskotek with a lip-sync performance of their current single Break On Through. This one hour teen-age dance program features numerous performers and airs Saturdays at 6:00pm on WPIX Channel 11. While WPIX permanently switched to color in 1967, the format for Clay Cole's Diskotek remains black and white until August 19th. Research has determined that the original master tapes
have all been wiped, with the only shows still known to exist are a few kinescopes and the final episodes copied by an employee of the station in December 1967.
During this first appearance on the show, Linda Eastman is present in the studio and photographs the band on stage. Also performing in this episode are Cy Coleman, The Vagrants, and Len Barry. The Doors return to WPIX Studios for their second appearance on June 13th where they most likely perform Light My Fire. (See Next Listing)
