IN STORES THIS CHRISTMAS!
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
Behind the Scenes of the Worldwide Musical Phenomenon
By Ellis Nassour
“Ellis Nassour has given us an utterly invaluable tome about Jesus Christ Superstar from the perspective of someone who witnessed much of it up close. Dense with information about the planning and machinations of putting this extraordinary musical together and filled with exclusive interviews and never-before-seen photographs, this should be on every JCS fan’s shelf!”
– Gibson DelGiudice, producer, author of Impressions of a Crucifixion, and co-creator of JCS Zone
JCS Zone was privileged and honored to be part of the research process for this new book from the author of Rock Opera, the original opus on the creation of JCS from the initial “Superstar” single to the 1973 film’s release. This fresh volume promises to continue the story, incorporating new information about the past half-century as well as covering the 50 years that followed. Click the book cover above to be directed to the official website, or visit our Box Office page in the Nav.Bar to be directed to information about promotional appearances (book signings, Q&As, etc.) where you can meet Ellis Nassour — and, sometimes, JCS Zone’s admin — in person!
Latest reviews from the Discography
Uninhibited Pain
And I thought the 2000s film was disappointing. At least the choices there were conventional; here I couldn’t help but be baffled at the numerous deviations made despite the claims that they maintained the original musical conception of the show. Mind you, I’m not opposed to deviations (the 1992 recording is a favorite of mine), but these are just bad, like having the refrain of “He is Dangerous” in This Jesus Must Die be incredibly slow while the verses around them are really fast. The symphonic aspects are good (even if they’re still not quite the original orchestrations), but the rhythm section is flacid and the guitars dont even sound amped a lot of times. Overall very painful listen
