Conceived as a concept album, the original 1970 recording of Jesus Christ Superstar includes the hit songs “Jesus Christ Superstar” and “I Don’t Know How to Love Him” and went to #1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart in 1971. It was nominated for three Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, and ranked number one in album sales on the year-end chart ahead of Carole King's massive hit Tapestry. The first Broadway production, starring Ben Vereen, opened in 1971 and garnered five Tony nominations in addition to winning a Drama Desk Award for Andrew Lloyd Webber. It is also fondly remembered for the 1973 Golden Globe and Academy Award nominated film that featured a new song, “Could We Start Again, Please?” that is included in the live broadcast and on the soundtrack.
