FIVE TO ONE,BABY

GETS OUT ALIVE

 Live in Boston 

is a

 triple CD

 live album

 by American

 Rock band

The Doors 

released 

July 24th 2007.

 It was recorded at

 the Boston Arena

 on

 April 10, 1970, 

during the band's 

Roadhouse Blues Tour. 

The band performed

 two shows, 

one starting 

at 7 pm

 and a second 

scheduled for 

10 pm

 but not actually

 starting until

 past midnight.

 Jim Morrison

 appears to be

 intoxicated 

during the entire

 latter show, 

and continued 

drinking heavily

 throughout the performance. 

The late start ended 

with the venue's owners 

cutting power

 to the stage 

to force the 

end of the concert.

The album was released from

 the Bright Midnight 

Archives collection 

which contains a number 

of previously unreleased

 live concerts

 by the Doors.

Background

Ray Manzarek,

 the band's keyboardist 

recalls the concert as

 "manic, wild, crazy, intoxicated", 

adding:

 … the shaman was intoxicated in Boston I don't know if you're allowed to even be a shaman in Boston. But Morrison sure as hell did it! Still, as intoxicated as Jim was, it was never a problem. Even in his most intoxicated state, he'd hit the musical cues. When we’d play "Light My Fire", you could solo as long as you wanted – and sometimes we did! – and then Jim would scream, improvise, add poetry, or whatever, sang some things that he felt like doing.
