Live in New York (The Doors live album)

Live in New York is a six-disc box set of four complete concerts performed American rock band the Doors on January 17 and 18, 1970 at the Felt Forum in New York City. Two shows were played each night, with 8:00pm and 11:00pm scheduled start times on January 17, and 7:30pm and 10:00pm scheduled start times on January 18. The final show featured an extended encore with guests John Sebastian (harmonica and vocals) and Dallas Taylor (drums) that concluded around 2:30am. Select tracks were previously released on the Doors' live album In Concert and as part of The Doors: Box Set. About a third of the material was previously unreleased.

The concerts were held a few weeks before the band released their fifth studio album Morrison Hotel on February 9, 1970. The box set was released by Rhino Records from the Bright Midnight Archives collection which contains several previously unreleased live concerts by the Doors.

Production
The original 8-track and 2-track concert recordings had been used for the 1970 release of Absolutely Live. During this editing of the tapes, many cuts had been made which left the original running order severely compromised. To ensure the correct running order was used, the audience recorded bootlegs were used. However, this process has led to occasional dips in sound quality.

Additionally, John Sebastian's blues harmonica was recorded through the PA system on the final three songs and not recorded onto tape. Long-time Doors' sound engineer/producer Bruce Botnick got John Sebastian to re-record his performance four decades after the original concerts.
