{"product_id":"hair_original_soundtrack_recording","title":"Hair (Original Soundtrack Recording)","description":"\u003cp\u003eHair (Original Soundtrack Recording) is the soundtrack album to Miloš Forman’s 1979 film adaptation of the countercultural stage musical Hair, with music by Galt MacDermot and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado. Released on RCA Victor, it reimagines the musical’s late‑’60s rock score with fuller film orchestrations and a cast that includes Treat Williams, John Savage, Beverly D’Angelo, Cheryl Barnes, Nell Carter, and others, backed by MacDermot’s band and studio players. The album runs a little over 75 minutes and is often issued as a two‑LP set, including an overture‑like “Aquarius” and a climactic, extended “The Flesh Failures\/Let the Sunshine In.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe soundtrack retains most of the show’s signature numbers—“Aquarius,” “Donna\/Hashish,” “Colored Spade,” “Manchester,” “I Got Life,” “Frank Mills,” “Hair,” “Hare Krishna,” “Where Do I Go?,” “Black Boys,” “White Boys,” “Walking in Space,” “Easy to Be Hard,” “Three-Five-Zero-Zero,” “Good Morning Starshine,” and “The Flesh Failures\/Let the Sunshine In”—while rearranging or trimming others to fit the film’s narrative. It also restores several songs that were recorded but cut from the movie (“Abie Baby,” “Air,” “My Conviction,” “What a Piece of Work Is Man”) and adds a new MacDermot composition, “Somebody to Love,” used as source music in the army‑base scenes. Compared with the 1968 Original Broadway Cast Recording, the film soundtrack is lusher and more cinematic, with denser orchestrations and a stronger funk\/disco undercurrent beneath the rock‑musical surface, making it a standalone listening experience that traces the film’s arc from exuberant tribal celebration to anti‑war tragedy and cathartic, communal protest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Magenta Vinyl","offer_id":53322571284794,"sku":"37700","price":69.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-04-15_at_2.23.34_PM.jpeg?v=1779523238","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/hair_original_soundtrack_recording","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
