Bette is at her best with tear-jerkers like this and the film soundtrack version with the garage footage requires an extra box of Kleenex!

my favorite album of hers has always been Live at Last with so many classics including the "Fried Egg" monologue leading into "Hello in There" (better than this version)

At the start of her carreer she sang in gay / swingers Sauna / steamroom place so any woman who's open minded enough for that gets my voted - plus she's actually good ( and seems like a real laugh ) too of course.

Barry Manilow was her penis in those days

sorry, pianist

isn't there an old joke about a Scottish guy offered a wish by an Irish leprechaun - with the accent problems he ended up with a 12 inch piano player

Yes she sang at the Continental baths in N.Y.C. I was there once when she sang.
