Free Music Notes for Hair (The New Broadway Cast Recording)
Free Music Review: Hair the new broadway cast recording
Hit: 2 Stars
I would just like to say that I was very disappointed with this recording. The performances are too polished and the cast is trying to hard to recreate the original production. The original 1967 cast album is much better in the sense that is has an edge to it, and it is a little "gritty".
One would be better off purchasing the original cast recording from 1967, it is much more enjoyable.
Free Music Review: New Hair Got No Soul
Hit: 2 Stars
I wanted to try the new Hair soundtrack because I thought that the mix would be superior to the original. Unfortunately, the new Hair lacks any conviction and just sounds show-tuney. The male singers sound really corny and most of the female voices have a quality like Kristin Chenoweth, childish and cutesy. The original Hair was gritty and soulful -- stick with that one.Free Music Review: Get the original cast

Sorry, but I was so disappointed in this. As someone who listened over and over to the original, and saw the Broadway show in its later performances, this album sounds flat. It lacks the spark and spirit of the original. It's like the cast has no idea of the emotions behind the theme of the musical. The original came from the heart. This comes from a printed score.Free Music Review: Disappointment

This cast recording lacks the heart of the original production. Enjoy the 2009 play, but purchase the 1968 recording. The later was made when the clothing was not just costumes and the singers better conveyed the emotions of era.
