Hair - 1968 - The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical OST
Hair: The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical is a rock musical with a book and lyrics by James Rado and Gerome Ragni and music by Galt MacDermot. A product of the hippie counter-culture and sexual revolution of the 1960s, several of its songs became anthems of the anti-Vietnam War peace movement. The musical's profanity, its depiction of the use of illegal drugs, its treatment of sexuality, its irreverence for the American flag, and its nude scene caused much comment and controversy. The musical broke new ground in musical theatre by defining the genre of "rock musical", using a racially integrated cast, and inviting the audience onstage for a "Be-In" finale. After an off-Broadway debut in October 1967 at Joseph Papp's Public Theater and a subsequent run in a midtown discothèque space, the show opened on Broadway in April 1968 and ran for 1,750 performances. Simultaneous productions in cities across the United States and Europe followed shortly thereafter, including a successful London production, which ran for 1,997 performances. 01 - Aquarius 02 - Donna - Hashish 03 - Sodomy 04 - Colored Spade 05 - Manchester England 06 - I'm Black - Ain't Got No 07 - Air 08 - Initials 09 - I Got Life 10 - Hair 11 - My Conviction 12 - Don't Put It Down 13 - Frank Mills 14 - Be-In 15 - Where Do I Go 16 - Black Boys - White Boys 17 - Easy To Be Hard 18 - Walking In Space 19 - Abie Baby 20 - Three-Five-Zero-Zero - What A Piece Of Work Is Man 21 - Good Morning Starshine 22 - The Flesh Failures (Let The Sunshine In) LINK
