Background notes

Archive material and source history

The Broadway Boys formed in New York City in the late 1960s, with Tom and Tim Gilbride, Ed and Rick Gimble, and James Rado. They started performing in cabaret clubs and Off-Broadway theaters. In 1967, they wrote and performed "Aquarius" for the musical "Hair," which became a counterculture anthem and topped the charts.

Their recordings included albums like "The Broadway Boys Sing the Hit Songs from Hair" in 1968 and "The Broadway Boys Live at the Apollo" in 1972. Beyond "Aquarius," they recorded songs like "Feed The Birds," "Give Love On Christmas Day," and "Imagine." Their live performances were energetic, and they appeared on television and radio shows.

Some of their songs contained explicit lyrics and anti-war themes that drew criticism from conservative groups, leading to performance cancellations. The group also faced internal conflicts and substance abuse issues that strained relationships among members.
