Andrew Lloyd Webber este un compozitor britanic de muzicaluri, ale cărui opere se numără printre cele mai jucate din West End și de pe Broadway. De-a lungul carierei a compus 21 de muzicaluri, printre care Jesus Christ Superstar, Cats, Starlight Express și Sunset Boulevard, și a primit numeroase premii prestigioase, inclusiv șapte Tony Awards și trei Grammy.
Compilația Unmasked: The Platinum Collection a apărut în 2018 la casa de discuri Polydor cu ocazia celei de-a șaptezecea aniversări a compozitorului. Acest dvoialbum pe 2 CD-uri cuprinde 39 de piese și parcurge întreaga operă a lui Webber, de la muzicalul de debut Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1968) până la contemporanul School of Rock. Alături de melodiile consacrate precum Memory, Don't Cry for Me Argentina sau The Music of the Night, albumul prezintă noi suite orchestrale și versiuni noi interpretate de vedete ca Beyoncé, Lana Del Rey, Gregory Porter, Nicole Scherzinger sau Madonna. Înregistrările au fost realizate în celebrele Abbey Road Studios din Londra.
