    The song, “Could We Start Again Please?”, which you have as the first cut on side four, was not a part of the recording, “Jesus Christ Superstar – A Rock Opera.” That song was added to the score of the motion picture “Jesus Christ Superstar”, released in 1973, and the song was included on the soundtrack recording.

    Great detailed review! I have the original 1970 Decca [best], and the [inferior] 1973 MCA reel to reels, and at 45 min per side, join Side A (parts 1,2) Side B (parts 3,4) . .. my question is about your “yellow box” info… says ‘released Sep 1970- recorded May 1972 -Aug 1973’.. wasn’t that May 1969 – Aug 1970?
    Anyway great review!
