STREET LIGHTS
SHARE THEIR HOLLOW GLOW
YOUR BRAIN SEEMED
BRUISED WITH NUMB SURPISE
STILL ONE PLACE TO GO
STILL ONE PLACE TO GO
Live at the Matrix 1967
is a double
live album
by the American
rock band
The Doors
It was recorded at
The Matrix
in San Francisco
on
March 7 and 10, 1967
by club co-owner
Peter Abram
(the other co-owner was Marty Balin).
The recording is notable
as one of the earliest
live recordings
of the
band known to exist,
played to a
mostly empty venue.
By March 1967,
the Doors had recorded
only their debut album
(released January 4, 1967)
and
"Light My Fire"
had yet to be released
as a single
(on April 24, 1967),
and they were still
relatively unknown
outside Southern California.
In 2023,
a three disc version
sourced from
the original master tapes
was released.
Recording Equipment
The release
was mastered by
long-time Doors'
sound engineer/producer
Bruce Botnick.
The album was released
from the
Bright Midnight Archives collection
which contains a number
of previously unreleased
live concerts by
the Doors.
PopMatters music critic
Steve Horowitz
observed in his review of
Live at the Matrix 1967,
entitled
"Money...That's What I Want,"
that the Rhino CD
was not sourced from
Peter Abram's
master tapes;
Rhino's press release
stated that
"first generation tapes"
were used.
