Pro Reviews: Hair / O.C.R. (Bonus Tracks) (Coll) (Rmst) (Dig)
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews When the Broadway cast of Hair was rereleased on compact disc back in 1988, the producers took advantage of the longer playing time and added as much bonus material as they had from the original recordings of 1968, presenting a better picture of the entire show. Fifteen years later, the 1988 version needed a remastering, but the producers wanted to add something more and came up wth this Broadway Deluxe Collector's Edition, adding both the Original OffBroadway cast recording (which had been out of print since the sixties and never available on compact disc) and exerpts from a 2003 interview with Galt MacDermot, who composed the music. Hair was a brilliant, groundbreaking work, but it was also an everevolving piece as actors came and left, lyrics were changed and songs were reordered and reassigned to different characters. The OffBroadway recording offers a look at where the musical started, and some of the changes that occurred. Some of the more noticeable diiferences are the order in which the songs themselves appear, and the disarming way the OffBroadway version of Claude sings "Manchester, England" with an English accent The band also went from just a fourpiece OffBroadway to a ninepiece for the Broadway cast (featuring the great Idris Muhammad on drums), and the arrangements change accordingly. The liner notes include a wonderful description of the Broadway staging from Lorrie Davis, one of the cast members. All in all, this is a fabulous presentation of one of the finest Broadway musicals ever, and the remastered sound is fantastic. Anyone who is still enjoying the Original Cast recording of Hair owes it to themselves to check out this truly deluxe edition. - Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide |
