FLOWER DRUM SONG ON COLIN HOLMES MAGIC OF THE MUSICALS. NOVEMBER 9TH 2014.
FLOWER DRUM SONG..... DRG RECORDS. BROADWAY PRODUCTION 2003.
Tracks played...
I am going to like it here / I enjoy being a girl / You are beautiful / Grant Avenue / A hundred
million miracles / Don't marry me.
Cast...Lea Salonga,Randall Duk Kim / Sandra Allen,Jose Llana.
There are two cast albums of this show. This one and the original which I have on Vynyl, but this
is sound and orchestrally superior. The songs have been re- orchestrated and re-imagined in some cases
but the feel and clarity of the show is more updated than it was. There is a loss of a song called " the
older generation" which, though amusing, has been cut from this version.
I have never seen a production of this show (there is a film...a bit slow!) and although it has some great
Rogers and Hammmenstein music it is not one of their best. Great music but lacking attentive plot...
very uninvolving....but the sountrack here...Excellant.****.
PLAYLIST
Born free....Matt Munro......PLAYLIST.****.
Hernando's Hideaway...Ella Fitzgerald....ELLA SINGS BROADWAY.*****.
Fabulous baby.....Patina Miller.....SISTER ACT.****.
Fight the dragons....Norbert Leo Butz....BIG FISH.****.
A place called home / Mr Fezziwig's annual Christmas Ball...Cast...A CHRISTMAS CAROL.*****.
Spirit of the season...Alan Silvestri / Beleive...Josh Groban....POLAR EXPRESS(FILM)*****.
C'est Magnifique....Kay Starr......EIGHT CLASSIC ALBUMS.*****.
Happy Holiday/Let yourself go.....Cast....WHITE CHRISTMAS.***.
Push da button....Cast.....THE COLOUR PURPLE.***.
Razzle Dazzle....Jerry Orbach.....CHICAGO.*****.
One normal night...Cast....THE ADDAMS FAMILY.*****.
When the children are asleep....Barbara Ruick,Robert Roundsville....CAROUSEL (FILM)*****.
