Jesus Christ Superstar-Original Soundtrack-180 gram 2LP Deluxe Gatefold Import

Description: Originally released in 1970 as a concept double album, it soon became a massive global best-seller, topping the US Billboard LP chart in both February and May 1971, as well as ranking at number one in the year-end chart. By 1983, it had sold over 7 million copies worldwide. However, the journey to international success was far from straightforward. At first, as they were relatively unknown names, Webber and Rice were unable to find a producer willing to stage their ambitious idea for a religious-themed rock opera. Eventually, they persuaded MCA Records to let them tape the score first. Using a full orchestra, and with the outstanding talents of Ian Gillan (from Deep Purple), Murray Head (who had just left the West End production of Hair), Yvonne Elliman (also from Hair’s British cast, and later on the Eric Clapton Band), and The Grease Band (Joe Cocker’s backing group), they created a masterpiece that revolutionized the form of musical theatre. Within a year of its chart success, stage productions of Jesus Christ Superstar began to appear all over the world, leading to record-breaking runs in the West End, a hit Hollywood film, Tony nominations and Olivier Awards.TracklistSIDE A1.
