Ondine Discotheque New York City
March 23rd 1967
Village Voice NYC
November 1st 1966 The Doors played their first ever East Coast gigs arriving in NYC and checking into the Henry Hudson Hotel on 57th St.
They attend an extremely weird Halloween party at Ondine's on the Upper East Side.
This is the same place where they will be giving their month long East coast performances booked sight unseen and only by reputation as L.A.'s hippest band with a sound unlike anything that is being played in NYC.
During this time the band assists Paul Rothchild in the mixing of The Doors debut album and the band also shoot the photos for the album cover and a video for Break On Through at Elektra's studio in NY with Mark Abramson who is another of the labels top producers.
It is during the time in New York that Jac Holzman persuades the band to remove the word 'higher' from the mix as he plans to release this as the bands first single.
During this stay The Doors spend Thanksgiving as guests at producer Paul Rothchild's home and take a night off from playing at The Ondine.
Jim comes on to Rothchilds wife....
