Jim would be proud of you Ray how you humbly and gracefully handled the Band and working with Other Bands with dignity and respect after he was gone. RIP Ray & Jim.

[@Diablo4643]

What an interesting band, besides Ray Manzarek of The Doors, we’ve also got Nigel Harrison of Blondie on the bass.

[@chuckfinley6156]

I had this LP back in the day. Ray did a whole lot of neat stuff in LA for years after The Doors. this is good to hear again.

[@klaus-jorgschuster8456]

Just two albums but i enjoy them a lot two musicals gems

[@reubensane5539]

I’ve been a Doors/Ray fan since 1980 I have albums of the Doors without Jim and albums Ray was involved in never heard this, this is fkn really cool!

[@peterseidel8557]

It's alright, Nite City! Thank you for your company for almost whole my life. Wouldn't wanna live in any other time like this with you, The Doors, Stones, Beatles and all this great music and feelings. See you all later! Greetings from Berlin!

[@jasonr.8822]

I grew up with this music, my mom friends with Ray!

[@TheBlackycat]

I have this album from back when it was released and I thought it was a fabulous album. Could not understand how it didn't really go anywhere.

[@susanhudak7393]

They were victims of the corporate world. Record companies were looking for " hits" to make lots of cash. They didn't care about art.

[@jessemcdonald7903]

I was 7 years old when my parents bought this album and was immediately influenced by it. I still listen to it today. One of the most underrated rock albums of all time. I did not care for Golden Days Diamond nights when I heard it on Napster back in 2000 but Nite City 1977 will always be a classic. Too many rock fans missed the boat on this.

[@GuitarStudioA]

I was a member of this band, just prior to Paul Warren joining. I left, as I had an offer for a project with a music publisher. Loved working with Ray Manzarek, he was a terrific Pianist, smart guy, just this wasn't really happening (management might have been a little too closely involved in the music, etc.). My name was left off "Midnight Queen," as a going away present (I'll assume that was managements choice). Oh well!

[@ryandaniels4625]

shocked this hasn't been reissued on cd yet.. needs to be!

[@PaulWarrenProject]

@LaGuNalOvERs42 - Hi, I'm the guitarist from Nite City. I'd love to hear from your friends Dad. I believe his real name is Phil Crane, but at the time he was calling himself Noah James.

[@wheelinthesky300]

Paul: Can you tell us anything about working on this project? I think the first album was underrated. This track pulsates and grows on you.

[@marcodellanna5285]

ci sono brani musicali che non si possono dimenticare, Nite City è uno di questi..

[@robertmelton9741]

i remember Paul doing "COME TOGETHER"high school 1968

[@TheSavedSinner]

I saw them live in NY in the 70's. Just awesome! Jim Morrison is a tough act to follow, but Noah was his own man and did a great job. He didn't try to be "Jim" he was just Noah and did a great job of it. Of course Ray was and is awesome! I saw him in NY and CA too, when he was doing the "The Whole Thing Started With Rock and Roll" and the "Golden Scarab."

[@EDPERRYTIGHTROPE]

Right On !!!

[@KOSMICKEN09]

actually i looked this up, cause i was looking through these old rolling stone magazines i was selling at the flea market today, and saw an article about this band....ray is cool....

[@JohnHoulgate]

I bought this album when it first came out. It wasn't the Doors, but given a few listens, I got hooked. Nice effort by Ray Manzarek and friends.

[@RogerMurdock]

I love this album but have never heard the second one. I always felt the singer was doing a watered-down version of Morrison but the band still had a good individual sound.

[@faheysmythe]

Hello Paul, We (Isaiah) opened for Nite City in Tucson at Choo Choo's Friday and Sat. nights, then you and Jimmy came and jammed with us Sunday night, Ray was there, you 3 were the coolest in the band, we had a great time, you guys RAWKED! Tripp

[@dougdenslowe3918]

@PaulWarrenProject:I played with Noah James in San Francisco before moving to L.A.When I played with him,after rehearsing for a year,we played three gigs where Noah got stage fright and freaked out worse than anybody could imagine.His real name is Don Crane.He also appeared on The People's Court.

[@Raincitywarrior]

sounds great i love it

[@EDPERRYTIGHTROPE]

one of the greatest bands

[@jimmyhunter2799]

thank for that! Ed Perry - did we meet in New York a long time ago?

[@billc307]

I had no idea that he formed this band. I like this song. To bad they did not gain a following.

[@BulutUnvan]

This is so underrated.

[@sequentialable12]

very interesting song. Great tune

[@rosepearljanis]

hey paul-i got this on lp and totally dig it!

[@OneTheBlue]

Curiosity brought me here after I heard Jello Biafra say that the Ramones opened for this band in Denver.

[@kevingotch391]

Thus us the best.

[@manzarek88]

Heyy Funky, somebody... I've been trying to find the two Nite City's albums with no luck... its a extremely rare material, and excellent! Can somebody make a torrent or something? we could trade

[@KOSMICKEN09]

ray did produce a bunch of really good lp's by the band X though...

[@EDPERRYTIGHTROPE]

OUT ALL NIGHT- NIGHT CITY

[@ryandaniels9825]

i wish this song is on cyberpunk 2077

[@codylindenstein2771]

I was looking for this comment, hahaha

[@ryandaniels9825]

@@codylindenstein2771 i had wishful thinking. it would've been great driving to this.

[@artistasolvidadas]

dammit I did it years ago but I was menaced to get a closed account by uploading Doors music. I'll do it in some days, I'll advise you !

[@manzarek88]

Hey man, I've been out of the country for a while, I just came back and downloaded soulseek, but I cant find the Nite City's Albums.... can you connect tomorrow or something like that? I'd really apreciate it.

[@sugarlanskee8]

When the music is over, turn out the Nite.

[@RayManzarekGod]

@KOSMICKEN09 Haha thats funny, Ray is a really cool guy, just out of curiosity, that flea marke doesn't have a Vox or Gibson Organ or Rhodes Piano for sale in it does it?

[@RayManzarekGod]

I find it somewhat funny that The Doors never had successful careers after Morrison, I mean yeah they made more records, but none of them were really big hits... I'm surprised.

[@RayManzarekGod]

Hey, guys get THIS. John Densmore wrote in his book, that after The Doors disbanded "Ray then started some Doors-copy band, called Nite City" What crap eh?

[@tommytomorrow2219]

I read that book. I refer to him as "John More-Dense" now.

[@RayManzarekGod]

@KOSMICKEN09 Yeah, but I meant as like playing Music, not producing.
