Summer in the City: Live in New York is a live album, produced by Joe Jackson and Sheldon Steiger.
With semi-classical pieces on his previous three recordings, Jackson proved he had not abandoned pop altogether in June 2000, with this issue, an album drawn from an August 1999 concert. It featured Jackson playing the piano and singing, backed only by Graham Maby and drummer Gary Burke, performing some of his old songs and several covers.
The shows were recorded by Steve Remote and Sheldon Steiger over three days in August 1999 at Joe's Pub in Manhattan.
All songs written and arranged by Joe Jackson, except where noted.
