Early Bette is magnificent!,
By Glen Laverick (London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live at Last (Audio CD)
If you are a Bette friendly person, you will not be dissapointed by this album. I think it is a special choice, I first became inspired by Bette midler when i was in my early teens, for her humour, her difference, and her energy. This recording from 1977 is a treasured item of mine, as i find bette's 70's and 80's stuff the most special. I wish it would have been recorded on film like 'Divine Madness' as I am sure it would have been the cherry on the top of that divine cake! OK it has a just a few weaker moments, but the rest of it makes it all up, The best Delta Dawn version I've heard, followed by a completely Bette ' Long John Blues' and one of the sweetest introductions to a song,' Fried Eggs' , is magical, Bette mixes humour, with sentimentality so well and with some improvisation with the audience, this c.d.will make you laugh ( Fact ) and move your body and also at times get into it and wish you were there at that time! Ohhh, I wish i were there! but as i was 6 years old then, all i have is my admiration and appreciation, and imagination of this great live show. cheers from london.glenny.x.

A fabulous recording,

This review is from: Live at Last (Audio CD)
These two discs are Bette at her raunchy best - funny, energised, surreal. A great combination of songs and patter which really capture her energy and personality. A MUST for any Ms Middler fan.

Divine Bette ? - as sure as Fried Eggs are Fried Eggs !,
By SMc "SMc" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live at Last (Audio CD)
I couldn't agree more with the previous reviewer, this is a great live album comprising the best of Bette Midler; from the raucous to the upbeat; from the wonderful clawing sentimentality of John Prine's "Hello In There" to the "boogie woogie" of Glenn Miller; whether telling bawdy Sophie Tucker jokes and "Long John's Blues" (where she has a different take on going to her dentist for a different type of filling - and it's not amalgam I can tell
you!), this is worth the purchase price. And there's much, much more and as live album's go, this is a must if you like your music and humour a little eclectic and downright vulgar!
