“Beaches, A New Musical” — based on Iris Rainer Dart‘s novel that also inspired the popular Bette Midler film — playing the Drury Lane Theatre this summer, has announced a formidable creative team.

Midler’s almost-forgotten debut album is a classic of the ’70s nostalgia/camp boom.

Permanent Records is an ongoing closer look at the records that matter most.
On May 21, 1992, NBC aired the penultimate episode of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, which included one of the most memorable images in the show’s history: Bette Midler, softly speak-singing the Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer favorite “One For My Baby (And One More For The Road),†while the camera catches an enraptured Carson watching from his desk. Carson and Midler had history. She was a frequent guest over the previous 20 years, since first appearing on the New York City incarnation of the Carson Tonight Show in the early ’70s. She was even briefly the opener for Carson’s Las Vegas stand-up act. That night in 1992, they looked like old friends and even older showbiz pros—representatives of a fading era.

How ‘When a Man Loves a Woman‘ Captured the Terror of Love
The late Percy Sledge‘s best-known hit portrays one-sided, obsessive infatuation, which is part of what makes it such a classic.
SPENCER KORNHABERAPR 14 2015, 1:54 PM ET
To hear Percy Sledge tell it, the melody for “When a Man Loves a Woman†lived in his head long before he recorded the song that would be his first single, and the first Southern soul song to go No. 1 on the pop charts. “I hummed it all my life, even when I was picking and chopping cotton in the fields,†Sledge, who died today at age 73, told the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame biographers upon his induction in 2005.
