I shall.

And, having no connection to that other than popularity at that time, I was casting about and found Murray Head is also still with us (only 67 and also looking pretty good)...

He was the original Judas on Jesus Christ Superstar. That is like being Maria on West Side Story (only a guy). The best-known character on the album that created the “Rock Opera.”

IMHO — a big deal.

And I once met the director of “West Side Story”, that being the late Robert Wise (after he replaced Jerome Robbins) at a film seminar back in 1994. Curiously, of the five main leads in that film, all but one are still alive today, even 52 years later (that being Richard Beymer, 74; Russ Tamblyn, 78; George Chakiris, 78; and the great Rita Moreno, 81). Only poor Natalie Wood is gone, and she’d have been 74 this past July.
