Free Music Review: Ho-Hum
Hit: 1 Stars
It is a sad commentary on the state of American Musical Theatre that the other reviewers praised this tepid effort. One of the magical ingredients of the original mounting was the energy level of every last principal and chorus member. This version puts me to sleep. None of the voices can compare to the origianl; bloody Mary sounds like she just got in from the Bronx. Our heroine's first song should be called "cockeyed sonambulist", her French planter sounds almost like a community theatre singer. And embarassingly the male ingenue sounds as if he's thinking about another sailor instead of an exotic beauty. Buy the original recording and be delighted; lei's stop praising mediocrates.
