Everybody knows Rodgers & Hammerstein's big hits, from Oklahoma! to The Sound Of Music. This show, based on John Steinbeck's novel Cannery Row, was their biggest flop.

Nevertheless, the music was standard R&H, with songs reminiscent of South Pacific, especially, although none of them came to life outside the show. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
