The Doors – the celebration continues

After the superlative 2007 best-of product aimed at Doors beginners, the surviving members of the band have turned their attention to hardcore fans, with the release of another high quality set, Live in Boston, April 10, 1970:

“Featuring more than three hours of music and mayhem, LIVE IN BOSTON finds keyboardist Ray Manzarek, drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger at the peak of their powers as Jim Morrison leads them on a booze-fueled romp through "Roadhouse Blues" and "Light My Fire", plus mind-bending journeys for "When The Music's Over" and Elvis Presley's "Mystery Train". Morrison scatters spoken word gems throughout both performances, including a short riff on Adolf Hitler where he professes: "Adolf Hitler is still alive? I slept with her last night."

LIVE IN BOSTON is mixed and mastered by engineer Bruce Botnick, who recorded several shows from The Doors' 1970 tour on multi-track tape for the Absolutely Live album. The superior quality of the original tape reflects Botnick and his team's attention to sonic detail. All but two tracks on this collection are previously unreleased. "These concerts are really interesting and very enjoyable," Botnick writes in the liner notes. "The opening scream going into "Roadhouse Blues" from the first show is stunning and worth the price of admission."
