    This is really chilling. Brought back so many memories. I was at Woodstock. After the rain a helicopter flew over us. Many thought we were going to be gunned down. Instead they tossed thousands of dandelions down on the crowd. People screamed. Some fell to their knees and called out their names. And as if on a magical cue everyone began to sing Let The Shine. It was a baptismal moment. Watching this just now brought it all back.

    This is an amazing clip. Hair seems like it was on the cutting edge at the time. The juxtaposition of Ed Sullivan with the amazing original Broadway cast underlines that. But also consider the timing. Hair opened on Broadway in April, 1968, well over a year before Woodstock. But it opened Off-Broadway in October, 1967, right after the so-called Summer of Love. And Ragni and Rado started writing it all the way back in 1964. I feel like they really caught the emerging zeitgeist and actually helped to make it a widespread reality. Often when theater or movies or TV deal with current events and fashions, they are just a little behind the front lines, but Hair was right there pushing things forward.

      67 was the Summer of love, can't figure why so many people now think it was 68 or 69.plus still best version of the play as all are real hippies and some real flower children ✌️

      The interesting thing about the timeline is that during the 1967 off-Broadway season a new song was added. Initials explicitly linked the CIA with LSD in a smash-hit Broadway play, years before the CIA's connections with LSD were made public.

      It's very interesting watching this clip from 1968 because it seems un-ironic and quite serious, something I didn't catch from the modern day performances which is much more light hearted and fun. Now I get it, it is a serious protest for the times.

    I was in Viet Nam in 1968 so this Anti-War musical means a lot to me. I just saw a production of the play at The Bay Street Players in Eustis, Fla. this past weekend. Great memories and "Let the Sunshine In" brought me to tears as it always has.

    I knew Jerry Ragni as a teenager. A tortured, brilliant - no - genius, Magoo who changed my life. If he was my age today, HAIR wouldn't have come into being. The space for this kind of creativity doesn't exist anymore. Hell, it barely existed in his time.

Told me that I had a great voice but I was "too legitimate" theatre. They were looking for street people. I sang "Don't Rain on my Parade" 🙄from Funny Girl...and dressed straight as an arrow!! WTH was I thinking?!🤷🏻‍♀️Went back a few says later wearing a great DISGUISE. He walked right past me in the hallway and I quickly pulled up the newspaper I was reading. I donned an Afro wig, a Daishiki and decorated bell bottom jeans‼️🤣😂Still a no❤️‍🩹...as main cast had long been chosen, but saw the play 13 times with different cast members (rarely had to pay.)

    My Mother was part of this very cast shown in this video. She has this very same video, but it is on a VHS tape. We no longer have a VHS player, so we have been unable to view it at home. In addition, we have been super scared to possibly transfer the VHS to DVD, in fear of destroying the actual VHS tape itself.

    I knew Mildred when we were in high school together. Mostly in passing. Near the end of that school year, she and my sister had tickets to Hair at the theater in Baltimore. My sister’s boyfriend was supposed to go with them as their driver.
    But they broke up. 😢
    So that asked me to drive.
    During intermission, my sister went to the ladies room. It was then that Mildred and I , how shall I say this?, hit it off.
    We married two years later.
    We have been married for 50 years.
    Hair is special to us.

I did have the soundtrack, which is excellent. This song does bring back memories of my time in the military, most of which have been tempered with the passing of the years. I am grateful to be alive. This song gives emphasis to that sentiment.

    ‘Hair’ the 1978 film of the play was a big movie on early cable tv…I always enjoyed the film, and I’ve been seeing clips and reading up on the original B’way cast and the general history of the play…
    From 2024, looking back, I find ‘Hair’ incredibly moving & touching. These 2 songs especially, and Treat Wiiiams’ death last year put a new spin on the cross-cutting at the end of the film version, as he takes Jon Savage’s place in Vietnam, and they gather round the grave… yeah, good stuff. Love seeing the passion of this original cast.

    (Let The Sunshine In) Has to be one of the most moving songs ever made. 5th Dimension got that off. Only thing the Broadway hit did was change the Bassline.

      Do you understand that the song came from the musical? 5th Dimension did their thing later. Both experiences are spot on.

      @sharonelliott2366 Yes, I do know that. I guess I made it sound as if 5th Dimension did it. I was talking about the different Basslines.

    I saw this in 1968 as a kid. Unfortunately was too young to understand it but I loved the music. My mom got me the album not knowing the lyrics, and my older sister told me sing Sodomy in front of mom who said she would take the album away if sang it again. I had no idea what any of the lyrics meant except they were “bad words”.

      My parents had the album and I started listening to it when I was around eight. I didn’t know what the words meant, but I knew how to look them up in the dictionary. LOL

    Hair is the first musical I saw - in 1969. I love musical theater and have seen many shows but it remains my favorite. It has the best opening and closing songs, my favorite line - “oh my god your skin is soft, I love your face” - and my favorite musical moment - when the second female voice joins in on “facing a dying nation.”
    It’s interesting to see videos of the Flesh Failures from eastern from Eastern Europe. I’m amused when I hear “supreme wisions.”
    Check out the performance of the Flesh Failures on Bulgarian Idol, featuring one of the best singers in the world.

    This is a great clip but I'm pretty sure it's not the original Broadway cast of hair. James Rado played Claude and Jerry Ragni played Berger and neither of them are in this clip. This was taped most likely after the show opened in Los Angeles with Jim and Jerry. There are clips of Aquarius that have Jim and Jerry in it that you can find. Someone please leave a comment and correct me if I'm wrong. Either way it's a great clip
