I want you to siiiiing along with the 5th Dimension!! Almost every high school choral group in America has performed this medley of the first and last songs from the Broadway musical “Hair.” Tipped off by a cabbie, the group saw the show in New York and decided they had to record “Aquarius.” It was producer Bones Howe’s idea to repeat a few bars from “The Flesh Failures” at the end (“let the sunshine in...”), abrupt transition and all. A Wrecking Crew gig all the way; the vocals were recorded in Vegas as 5D was performing there, and were mixed in later. Bassist Joe Osborn played his ass off on the ending.
