I actually think Barry Dennen sounded better as he got older - he was a tad shrill in the film but he's got more gravel in his voice here. But Ted Neeley sound extremely wooden at the beginning.
Also, Barry is the original Pilate from the 1970 Rock Opera album the show and 1973 movie are based on, and has also originated the role on Broadway in 1971.
Actually, they're right where they're supposed to be. Pilate counts each lash on beat 1 of every bar and the lash lands on the off-beat or between beats 1 and 2 of each bar of music. That's how they've always been written. The guy doing the lashing is landing them where he's supposed to. So, nothing wrong here. Musically, it's correct.
I wonder the same thing. Because in his youth (1.973 movie), he was resistant to that. Now, watching this, that surprised me and I wonder how can he still holding that?
I've seen them live back in 94 in philly it was awesome show!!
