  1. The experience of hearing the band's ebb and flow as they organically develop the performance in real-time--as opposed to hearing a package of material that has been cherry-picked after the fact--is one of several advantages that the Live in New York (2009) anthology has over its predecessors. Another is the stunning fidelity throughout, thanks to the work of Doors' original producer/engineer Bruce Botnick and the exhaustive processes of restoring the eight-track, open-reel master tapes.
  2. Given the disjointed bloat of the group's sole live release in Morrison's lifetime, 1970's "Absolutely Live," the new 6-CD Live in New York, whose four-show run over two nights at Madison Square Garden's smaller stage contributed to "Absolutely Live," actually strengthens and streamlines that same tour's audio.
  3. Many tracks from these shows have been released before, but on this box you can listen to them bootleg-style, with all the repeated songs, tuning breaks, and banter with the audience.
