Show Notes

This week Jimi is inhabiting the spirit of Dean Pelton. Don’t ask questions, just roll with it Jeffrey.

Research time! Check out the original concept album and enjoy some supreme seventies nostalgia with the movie, then sample something more contemporary with the millennial touring production and the massive arena tour! Great way to start if Jesus Christ Superstar is new to you.

While we’re on the subject, it’s there anything finer than the frosted-tips, pre-Jimmy era of Tony Vincent? No. The answer is no.

The Last Days of Judas Iscariot is a really fantastic play if you’re interested in the other side of this story. Definitely worth a peek!

Compare this video of Simon Zealotes from the movie version of JCS to Tony Vincent’s. Which do you prefer? Let us know on Twitter!

This is the picture that garnered Jimi recognition from the legendary Ben Vereen. He’s still reeling.
