I just received the recording- Gavin sounds amazing on this song. I was wondering if anyone knew the background on the song...was it in the original production?

If anyone could hook me up w/ where to find the sheet music...that would be amazing.

Yes, it's always been in the show, since the first outing at the Public Theatre. I don't know if it was ever in the published vocal selections though.

are you talking about the Hair concert with Raul Esparza? There is a recording for purchase? Where can I find it?

it's currently available only from Ghostlight (link below). It will be officially released into stores on June 14th, I think.

Yes, it was in the original production but not the OBC recording when first released. Upon it's re-release "Going Down" was added.
