Fred Johanson - Allow me to RANT - but first, a question....

Is there a recording anywhere of him doing "Pilate and Christ" (other than watching the DVD).

RANT:

I thought he was a great Pilat, very strong. His "Pilate and Christ" is the best I've heard. But they didn't record it!

This does not make me happy AT ALL!

End of rant.

Is there anyone else that was recorded and is very good?

Akh, I just heard another who took the COMPLETE OPPOSITE approach as Fred.

Fred Johanson later appeared in Garbo the Musical at the Oscar
Theater, Stockholm, Sweden. This is the show that Jim Steinman
and Michael Reed composed in 2002... Steinman's second flop
that season (alongside the famous one)

You should hear 'City of Black and White'

which has an amazing (incredible) uplifting solo from Fred
in the middle section. I think he sounded at his best here :)
