Absolutely amazing! I love hearing Bette for the first time, even after 40 some years. She nailed it…..perfectly!! Closing my eyes, and just listening to the song, I would think that it was recorded in the 1920’s. She’s Ella, Mae West and more, capturing all the nuances in every phrase. What a treat. Thanks, Mister D, for finding this one. This is one of the most straight-forward versions of a classic that I’ve ever heard Bette sing (as in, ‘no camp’), which truly focuses on her incredible vocal abilities, and talents. A ‘wow” moment, IMHO.
I found this on Bette Midler Fansite so i bootlegged their bootleg since they don’t like me. It was the only way to share it. So fuck’em if they can’t take a joke. My site was named appropriately at least…xx

Good job and major coup! xx
…oh, and I have a pretty good ideia where they got that from in the first place…LOL
Why the scenery has a recycling symbol in it?! It was too early for the kind of thing.
Guys, a minor question: Did Miss M ever have a nose job?
that’s the million dollar question? Some say she has…others swear not…xx
I’d say yes. Miss M’s face nowadays is prettier and softer than in the beginning of her career and it can’t be only the power of makeup.
