	The Village Voice - 6-27-01
		MacDermot's musical thumbprint is smudged all over the urban landscape, thanks to the unlikely rediscovery of his early solo oeuvre: ultra-rare albums that barely grazed any retail record racks upon initial release, but which have now become dusty groove nirvana and are being reissued this week as a two-fer CD on MacDermot's Kilmarnock Records.
		MacDermot's randb-tinged melodies and block chords on Shapes of Rhythm land somewhere between the bluesy bop of Bobby Timmons and Vince Guaraldi's Peanuts pop; Woman Is Sweeter has a stronger rock undercurrent, thanks to the greasy electric riffs of a guitarist named, oddly enough, Charlie Brown.
		MacDermot may have been content to collect royalties and let his records float around in their original incarnation were it not for a 19-year-old Vanderbilt University student and record collector named Eothen Alapatt.

		Born and raised in Montreal, MacDermot was the son of a Canadian diplomat.
		Three years later, MacDermot's music for +Hair, combined with lyrics by James Rado and Gerome Ragni, made the show first an off-Broadway success, then a Broadway smash, and later a major motion picture.

	Playbill Features: ON THE RECORD: Jerry Herman's Girls & an Intriguing Galt MacDermot Score
		Galt MacDermot's The Human Comedy is not a new cast album, exactly; it was recorded in 1984, but the show's quick demise after only thirteen performances caused it to remain unreleased until it unexpectedly appeared on CD last year.
		MacDermot's only Broadway appearance since was The Human Comedy -- which, like Hair and Two Gents, originated at Joe Papp's NY Shakespeare Festival -- but which garnered virtually no notice on Broadway and quickly disappeared.
		MacDermot's early Broadway shows were rock musicals, but one shouldn't consider Galt a rock composer.

	ear fuzz: Galt MacDermot
		Like legend David Axelrod, Galt MacDermot is considered one of the greatest music composers of the century.
		Born in Montreal, MacDermot was originally a pianist, but later began composing music for films and broadway plays, Hair and Two Gentleman of Verona probably being his most well-known works.
		Employing a unique blend of jazz, rock, funk, folk, and classical styles MacDermot's music managed to appeal to a variety of ears, and is largely what makes his music still relevant today as hip hop listeners and producers especially have found lasting appeal in MacDermot's music.

		A long time "jazz freak," MacDermot moved to South Africa in the 50s and took in experiences that would influence his musical development greatly.
		MacDermot's playing is brilliant and dexterous, and should be lauded for its execution.

		Galt MacDermot is famous for his soundtrack work of the 1960s and ’70s, most notably as the composer of Hair.
		MacDermot’s gift is his ability to craft music that rolls from one funky hook or break to another almost endlessly, making it some of the freshest, liveliest most head-nodding music to come out of the funk and soul era.
		This release is further proof of the genius within MacDermot’s keyboard-based, slightly fuzzy electro-funk and soul — a smattering of unreleased, dusty, old recordings that will no doubt begin to appear in the sampled format before too long.
