''Donovan in Concert'' is the sixth album from British singer-songwriter Donovan, and the first live album of his career. It was recorded in the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California on September 23, 1967. It was released in the United States in August 1968 (Epic Records BN 26386 (stereo)) and in the United Kingdom in September 1968 (Pye Records NPL 18237 (monaural) / NSPL 18237 (stereo)). The album reached No.18 on the U.S. charts. ==History== This concert was recorded in September 1967, several months before Donovan released ''A Gift from a Flower to a Garden'', and the concert included several songs that would not have been widely known to a US audience, including some which were UK single b-sides. "Poor Cow" is introduced by Donovan as "Poor Love", its original title, which was changed when the song appeared in the film ''Poor Cow''. It retained that title when released as the b-side to "Jennifer Juniper" in February 1968. The music at the concert was much more subdued than Donovan's singles of the time, and Donovan was backed by the core group of musicians who had recorded with him on his previous albums including flautist Harold McNair and percussionist Tony Carr. They play many genres of music, from folk to jazz. The concert was introduced by (Los Angeles radio station) KRLA radio personality, Rhett Walker, who then hands the proceedings to Donovan's father Donald Leitch.
