Béla Fleck & The Flecktones
La Cage Aux Folles
Description
Composer Jerry Herman finds much greater depth in this French farce about a club for transvestites in St. Tropez than did the original play or the film, turning it into a virtual proclamation of gay pride ("I Am What I Am"). The score has his typically catchy tunes and slangy lyrics, and it remains touching, perhaps even more so in the age of AIDS. George Hearn is outstanding in the lead role. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
