Hey, it's Matt Herrmann and today is the 2nd of November making it TUNEFUL TUESDAY here on HAIR the american tribal love-rock podcast.
Today's episode features Mort Garson's Electronic HAIR Pieces. Mort Garson, the leading exponent of electronic music, re-created the music of HAIR using a Moog Synthesizer, with many oscillators, patch cords, filters, various forms of modulation and program sequences. In result, he has given new dimension and clarity to the brilliant musical created by Gerome Ragni, James Rado and Galt MacDermot.
We hope you enjoy and look forward to our time together again on HAIR the american tribal love-rock podcast.

Hey! It's Matt Herrmann. Thanks for stopping by. Before we embark on this journey back to the Age of Aquarius, I thought it'd be best to take a few minutes and record, for you, a little overview of the program. Which is exactly what this episode is. So please take a listen as we bring you stories from the musical that changed the world, as told by the people who lived and breathed it, eight shows a week.
