Title: An underrated gem
Product review: Flower Drum SongFlower Drum Song (1961 Film Soundtrack)OK,so it ain't "The King And I".The book may be somewhat dated and over-sentimental,but so what?The main thing about "Flower Drum Song" is its colorful and tuneful score,well-performed here by a brilliant cast.Pat Suzuki and Miyoshi Umeki are the standouts here,the former with her delightful "I Enjoy Being AGirl" and the latter with a beautiful "I Am Going To Like It Here".These are two of the album's highlights,and the best of all is Arabella Hong's haunting "Love,Look Away".The last two,in fact,are among Rodgers And Hammerstein's most beautiful ballads.This is a wonderful album that all Broadway and movie musical fans wil love.
