Rolling Stock: "Starlight Express" Returns to Vinyl to Celebrate New London Production
Andrew Lloyd Webber first became interested in adapting Reverend W. Aubry's Thomas the Tank Engine stories in 1974. A pilot episode for a proposed television series was produced but ultimately not picked up. But the Jesus Christ Superstar and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat composer didn't give up on the idea of musicalizing a story with trains.

Shadows and Light: Joni Mitchell's Asylum Albums Go Quadio
