Bette Midler – The Rose (CD)
Product Details
Bette Midler had already built her reputation in the bathhouses and on Broadway before this 1979 film role crystallized her into a genuine rock and roll presence. Paul Rothschild's production bridges Midler's theatrical roots with raw, lived-in performances that hold up against the source material they're invoking. The title track became one of the most-covered ballads of its era.
This soundtrack to the film inspired by Janis Joplin was produced by Paul Rothschild-producer of Joplin's Pearl . This 1979 LP has Bette's smash The Rose ; hit take on When a Man Loves a Woman , plus Stay with Me; Midnight in Memphis , and more!
