Jesus Christ Superstar [Remaster] by Original Cast Recording (CD - 09/24/1996)
Description:
"Jesus Christ Superstar [Remaster]" (09/24/1996) Original Cast Original Cast, MCA Records (USA)Personnel includes: Ian Gillian, Murray Head. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Conceived by composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyricist Tim Rice while the British duo were still in their early 20s, the rock opera JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR was released in 1970 as a studio album before its many subsequent stage productions. Featuring Deep Purple singer Ian Gillan as Jesus and Murray Head as Judas, this recording presents the initial versions of these well-known Broadway tunes, including the funky, frenetic "What's the Buzz?/Strange Thing Mystifying" and "The Temple," a hauntingly chaotic number. Although other productions of the musical are highly regarded, this original version is arguably the best.
