"Yet another "updated" Mikado, this time with 1960-style pop styling. Some songs, especially "Three Little Girls From School" are fun. Others fall flat. In most songs only the musical style is altered whereas lyrics remain the same. Mikado's patter song is only one with new words. Strangely some of the most popular songs from this operetta are absent, like Koko's "I have a little list." The Titwillow song is instrumental only, in go-go style. This album gets boring and even annoying quickly. Only worth buying if you collect Mikado albums or want to hear another take on the show. "Hot Mikado" is a much better choice, though."
