The Hair CD — recorded Oct. 1, 2004 at the Hit Factory — was based on the Sept. 20, 2004, benefit concert at the New Amsterdam Theatre. The single CD boasts a host of Broadway favorites, including Rent's Adam Pascal, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Raul Esparza, Wicked's Ana Gasteyer, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels' Sherie Rene Scott, Taboo's Euan Morton as well as American Idol finalist Jennifer Hudson.

The Sept. 20 Hair featured musical direction by Seth Rudetsky, who conceived the concert with the Actors' Fund of America. Devanand Janki and Christopher Gattelli co-directed and co-choreographed the concert, which featured three onstage staircases and two above-the-stage screens with projected images. The creative team also featured Paul Weimer (scenic designer), Jeff Croiter (lighting designer), Scott Stauffer (sound designer), Michael Crowler (costume coordinator), Elaine McCarthy (projection designer). Gattelli, Janki and Tim Pinckney adapted the musical for this concert version.

Hair focuses on a group of hippies — called The Tribe — in New York City in the late 1960's, and gives voice to their passions and frustrations in loose scenes and interactions, including a rant against war, an embrace of free love (including a group nude scene) and odes to nature, life, drugs and multiculturalism. Book and lyrics are by Gerome Ragni and James Rado, music is by Galt MacDermot. Tom O'Horgan was the original director. Heather MacRae, Melba Moore, Keith Carradine and Joe Morton were among performers in the early Broadway run of the show, at the Biltmore Theatre.
