[box] I wouldn’t say I invented tack, but I definitely brought it to its present high popularity. — Bette Midler[/box]
Nothing like a Bette Midler concert to get the old blood circulating in the midst of Lockdown.
This is classic Midler from the period not so far away from the days she drew crowds at New York’s gay bathhouses. She takes raunch and camp to extreme levels, then follows these funny bits with some awesome powerhouse singing.
I enjoyed this so much. Recommended to fans.
