The Divine Miss M

Special thanks to Randy Price for sharing this article


Atlantic recording artist Bette Midler was a legend in her own time even before she had signed her first recording contract. Playing small clubs in and around New York City, the "Divine Miss M," as she has come to be known, got her biggest break when she performed as a regular before a towel clad audience at the Continental Baths, also in New. York.

Her first Atlantic album release, "The Divine Miss M," has been certified gold by the RIAA and she has, thus, far, had two equally as successful single releases from that LP, "Do You Want To Dance" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" with a third, "Friends" on the way.

Ms. Midler is in the process of recording her, second album for the label, which is expected to be released sometime this fall.
