Sugar Mountain – Live at Canterbury House 1968 is a live album by Canadian-American musician Neil Young. On November 8–10, 1968, Young performed three solo acoustic shows at Canterbury House in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The album is compiled from the performances on the 9th and 10th.

## Recording

The recording of the song "Sugar Mountain" from this appearance was previously released as a single B-side and on Young's 1977 compilation album Decade.

## Release

This album is Volume 00 in the Archives Performance Series. Since volumes two and three had already been released, this album, though performed earlier chronologically, is the third release from the Series. The Riverboat 1969, released in The Archives Vol. 1 1963–1972 in 2009, is the fourth Archive Performance Series released but was performed earlier chronologically than volumes two and three.
The album was released only as a CD/DVD set, with the DVD containing a high-definition audio version of the album, playable on standard DVD players. The DVD also contains a trailer for Young's Archives Vol. 1 box set.
A vinyl record version of the album, pressed on 200-gram Japanese vinyl, was released in April 2009.
The album's cover is a photograph of Young taken in 1967 by Linda Eastman, later the wife of Paul McCartney.
