Alive, She Cried is the second official live album by the American rock band the Doors, released in October 1983 by Elektra Records.

[3] In a contemporary review for The Village Voice, music critic Robert Christgau wrote that the tapes are "of some quality" and Morrison is effective when he focuses on singing, but the album is marred by moments "when he emits his poetry" and "narcissistic" come-ons.

[5] Rolling Stone's Parke Puterbaugh rated it four out of five stars, explaining that it "brings ... the Doors' impossibly strange and wonderful music, Morrison's drunken loutishness and his stabbingly sober poetics, and the brilliant, vivid sparking of a machine too mercurial to last."

He concluded by stating that "'Light My Fire' ... flares upward into an intensifying bolt of passion that crescendos with ... a scream signifying the communal orgasm of a generation and a decade and a band that would flame out and fall silent all too quickly.

"[6] In a retrospective review, AllMusic's Bruce Eder said that Alive, She Cried "helped solve [Absolutely Live's] problem [of leaving] more casual fans rather cold, owing to the absence of any of their biggest hits".
