Music reviews of Jesus Christ Superstar: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Album

Music Review: Greatest Opera of All Time
Rating: 5 Stars

As a whole, this is a masterpiece, but each song is amazing. This is the kind of music that you learn by heart and remember the rest of your life. I heard it first 30 years ago and will never forget it. The opera when performed is nonpareil. A must listen (and see) for anyone who appreciates musicals.

Description of Jesus Christ Superstar: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Album

This 1974 Norman Jewison film may have been a critical misstep, but some fans actually preferred it to Broadway's rock spectacle. The thing is, Jesus Christ Superstar was first introduced as a two-disc rock opera, not unlike the Who's Tommy, as it even scored several Top 40 hits. While no set matches the original, it's still hard to go wrong with the music, no matter what the source. This also includes the pretty "Could We Start Again, Please," composed for the stage version, and sung here by the original LP's Mary Magdalene, Yvonne Elliman. Ted Neely (Jesus) and Carl Anderson (Judas), meanwhile, have spent two decades on the road, recreating their roles night after night, although they have to now be at least two decades older than Jesus was at the Crucifixion. --Bill Holdship
