Comment on ‘HAIR’ Celebrates New Broadway Cast Recording at Bumble and bumble! by BobsViews

BobsViews — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 04:02:59 +0000

The New Broadway Cast Recording of “Hair” captures the magic of the current smash
Broadway revival. The ground-breaking show about a tribe of hippies in New York’s
East Village contains classics such as “Aquarius,” “Good Morning Starshine,” “Let
the Sun Shine In,” and the title track. The current cast sounds as vibrant as they
do live on stage. Examples include, Sasha Allen’s soaring “Black Boys,” Will
Swenson’s joyous “Donna,” Caissie Levy’s heartwrenching “Easy to Be Hard” and
Gavin Creel’s outstanding “Where Do I Go?” Executive Producer, Bill Rosenfield
along with, Galt MacDermot, “Hair’s” original musical composer, include songs that
weren’t on the show’s Original Cast Recording, some of the show’s dialogue and
both of the show’s encores. The current show’s Musical Director, Nadia
DiGiallonardo, makes MacDermot’s music sound fresher then ever by using top-of-the-
line musicians. Gerome Ragni’s and James Rado’s lyrics are as relevant as ever on
songs such as “Air”(“Welcome, sulphar dioxide/Hello carbon monoxide/The air, the
air is everywhere.”) and “I Believe in Love” (“I believe that now is the time/for
all good men/To believe in love.”) Their songs are philosophical(“What a Piece of
Work Is Man”) and provocative (“Sodomy”), but also funny (“My Conviction”) and
heartbreaking,(“Frank Mills”). The New Broadway Cast Recording of “Hair” reminder
us that not only is this the right time to experience its latest revival but to
also hear its timeless songs.

I was fortunate enough to have worked at Les Mouches as one of the first female club DJ’s during Ms. Lupone’s twenty seven week engagement there.
Ms. Lupone brought the house down every Saturday night!
One could hear the cheers from the cabaret theater section of the nightclub..well into the disco where I was cranking the music for hundreds!
Patti Lupone..legendary!

Comment on 2009 Tony Awards Preview concert to air May 30th! by Larry McD

I was lucky enough to be there for the taping and the performances from Next to Normal and Hair by themselves would make the show worth watching but when you throw in the duet from Westside Story and the character song from Billy Elliot's grandmother and you've got a winner.
