My 34-yr-old son loves the soundtrack to the movie JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, which he heard me play on various media while he was growing up. He now is really into vinyl, so I wanted to give him an original LP recording of "JCS" for his birthday. The LP arrived promptly & was safely & securely packaged.
Original Cast Decca 7206 Released: November 1970 Chart Peak: #1 Weeks Charted: 101 Certified Gold: 12/21/70 It's quite a feat. I admired and enjoyed it right away.

At the end of the 20th century and into the 21st, this has begun to manifest itself in audio form in a series of tributes to JCS, including A Resurrection, This Jesus Must Die, Jesus Christ Surferstar, the Ultrasonic Rock Orchestra’s updated riff on the concept album, Jesus Christ Supernova, and most recently this studio recording.

Benefit Coordination by CJ Dorgeloh. The original 70's rock style of the arrangements in this recording, are to me just perfect. JC Superstar was a product of the 1960's generation, and it was rather a surprise that the generation of "sex, drugs, rock-and-roll' suddenly started paying attention to Jesus, albeit in an unconventional manner.
