Every contemporary article I can find lists the original recording of Jesus Christ Superstar as a nominee for Album of the Year in 1972, not just "Best Pop, Folk & Rock Vocal Performance by a Duo, Group or Chorus" (as Billboard listed that category). It's simply missing from that page for some reason. At a quick glance, it looks like every other category listed has at least five nominees, but that one has four. It's a mistake there.

As discussed in my post below, what was nominated that year was the original recording, not the cast recording of the London production, which wouldn't open till five months after the Grammy were given.
