The single ‘Superstar’ was released in 1969, before the entire album by Jesus Christ Superstar was recorded (in 1970). The song was sung by Murray Head & The Trinidad Singers. Because the song was successful, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice were given the opportunity of record company Decca/MCA to record the entire album. In the Netherlands, the single reached 11th place in the Top 40. In Canada, the song even ended up in 6th place and in the USA in place 8.
