Donny Hathaway's Live is widely considered the greatest live soul album ever recorded, captured across two nights in 1971 at the Troubadour in Hollywood and the Bitter End in New York. Hathaway transforms every song he touches — Marvin Gaye, John Lennon's Jealous Guy — into something more raw and communal than the originals. His electric piano playing on The Ghetto runs to eleven minutes, driven by the audience, with Hathaway feeding off their energy until the whole room becomes the instrument.
