Description:

The Doors' legendary live performance just after their debut in San Francisco in March 1967. The entirety of the original master tape has finally been revealed! Very early in their career, The Doors played a show at a little hole-in-the-wall club called The Matrix, which was co-owned by Marty Balin of Jefferson Airplane. At the time, there was an unspoken understanding that when an LA band came to San Francisco, they had to play at the Matrix as a sort of "pay it forward" in honor of the band that had established the local scene. The Doors happily complied, and Peter Abram, the club's co-owner, recorded the band's two performances on March 7 and March 10, 1967. The set list includes popular Doors covers such as "Gloria," which influenced them in the creation of original songs like "Break on Through (To the Other Side)" and defined their sound, and the blues classic "Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)." The album also includes cover songs.Both shows had been released once before, but after their release it was discovered that they were based on so-called "grandchild copies" (3rd generation tapes) of the original live recordings. Over the years, The Doors tracked down the original master tapes (1st generation recordings), and now, for the first time, the two nights are being released in their entirety. Since some of the live recordings from the original master tapes have only been released as Record Store Day exclusive products and on the "Light Your Heart on Fire (50th Anniversary Deluxe Japanese Edition)" released in 2017, this release is sure to be a hot topic of conversation. This release is sure to be a hit. The 5LP+7" and 3CD sets will feature new liner notes by Joel Selvin.(From the label) ○The 3-CD set containing the original master tapes of the legendary live recording "Live at the Matrix", which has been eagerly awaited by Doors fans, is finally available! When it was released on 2CD in 2008, it contained 24 tracks based on "grandchild copies" (3rd generation tapes). Later, the original master tapes (1st generation recordings) were discovered and included in the Record Store Day limited edition and in the "Set Your Heart on Fire (50th Anniversary Deluxe Japanese Edition)" released in 2017, 1967. This album contains 37 songs from the March 7 and 10, 1967 shows. Includes complete translation of the English liner notes by Joel Selvin.
