Notes

The latest addition to the band's acclaimed series of archival concert releases, this double LP collection contains The Doors' first show from the Felt Forum in New York City on the night of January 17th, 1970 in its entirety.

Recorded just a few weeks before the release of Morrison Hotel - the concert finds Jim Morrison, John Densmore, Robby Krieger, and Ray Manzarek locked in tight as they deliver smoking takes on soon-to-be-classics from their forthcoming album, including “Roadhouse Blues,” “Peace Frog,” and “Ship Of Fools.” The show also features a number of driving blues covers, such as Bo Diddley's “Who Do You Love” and Howlin' Wolf's “Back Door Man.”

“Those were the bluesy songs we always used to do,” Krieger says. “We probably hadn't done some of them in years, but we had resurrected them for these shows.”

In 1969, the year prior to this performance, The Doors became one of the first rock bands to play New York City's Madison Square Garden. When they returned in 1970, Densmore says they chose to play the Felt Forum, a smaller venue at the Garden. “It was more intimate, and you could feel the audience more,” he says. “There was more interaction, and the acoustics were much better, because it was designed for music.”

Manzarek hails the show as a return to the group's early days, when they used to play a club called London Fog. “I mean, talk about going back to basics. We used to do four sets a night at the London Fog, and we only had a small block of songs written up to that time. So we would do other people's material. And in New York, it was like the same thing as the London Fog. We've got four shows to play here, two sets tonight, two sets tomorrow night. Let's play whatever we want! Let's just go!”

Fans will be blown away by the crisp sound found on LIVE IN NEW YORK. The show was mixed and mastered by the band's longtime engineer, Bruce Botnick, who recorded a number of shows from The Doors' 1970 tour on multi-track tape for the Absolutely Live album.
