OH. MY. WORD! I, too, have never seen this! and with Dinah Shore who is enjoying it so much (who wouldn't). She's such a demure divine diva in this!! What fun. Thanks so much. (Must bookmark, must bookmark.). And Ol' Red Hair is Back from 1977 is right here in the search -- So Good.
As a huge fan as I'd been when this aired, I never saw it. What a gem of an interview. Dinah recognized what us very early on die hard fans knew. Bette Midler is a treasure to the world
Dinah shore and bette milder had a beautiful friendship in the 70s and I enjoyed it but I was born in the 1987 and I can watch her show on TH-cam and enjoying it now 😅
And this is why people have loved her forever. She is the most authentic person ever in show business. When she goes, the world will be in mourning forever.
I've been a fan of Bette Midler since I was a kid. And this is the most fun entertaining interview I've ever seen with her. Thanks so much for sharing!
What a delightful and engaging interview....a great example of mutual respect for each other as people and as very talented women. I had forgotten how gracious and fun Dinah was on her show!
First saw THE DEVINE MISS M at Continental Baths NYC. Barry Manilow was at the piano. Baths were just a walk across Central Park from where I lived. An outstanding evening. Also saw her for a NYE performance at the Dorthy Chandler Pavilion, LA. A NYE to remember. CELEBRATION INDEED! Thank you for decades of great music entertainment, movies and your "social voice" Divine Miss M. "Gotta have friends"and you have millions.
J.E. Jones, that was you? I also remember Bathhouse Betty, back in 1972-73 it's a little vague now 😁 but I'm still here. The memories keeps me young, oh what fun. And to think all those years of fun we had nothing to worry about and now we have to deal with this.😷 Cheers! Stay safe.
@@billgreen1861 😁 Yes Bill..Think! Blonde, blue and fit....You were so goood.😅.....May have seen her twice. Wasn't really " Bath Guy" but wanted to see her and it was only a 20 minute wallk thru CP. and maybe $5.l-$10..Paid over $100 to see her in LA.... Pretty much left the baths after the show although I took a peek😉 Big voyeur.... More of a Charlie's or Village type. Even knew Lou Katz a bit before he became a criminal. His life turned out to be so sad just like his buddy Roy Cohn. We'd all have dinner on Bleeker now and then....Very interesting experience for a guy just out of college..Glad you said 👋. Have a great weekend.
I saw a NYE performance at Bill Graham in SF - late 1990s I believe. No joints under the seats though. First time I saw her live was Clams on the Half Shell. I was 15 and went with my dad in his late 30s. It was us and pretty much every gay guy in NYC. What a revelation!
What are “baths” , you mean bathhouse? Why would a singer be at a bathhouse? Is that what I think it is? In my city a bathhouse is just a sauna or pool.
@@hirsch4155 Continental Baths NYC were rather famous and many "kinds" of people went for a variety of reasons.Yes: Pool, saunas, food and "secret rooms." Bathhouse Bette and others entertained poolside. Couple hundred all in towels sitting around the pool....She did it with Barry Manilow because it was fun and a great way to build a fan base. This was the 70s . She was becoming rather well known.. Her appearances skyrocket her fan base. A few years later she played sold out concert venues..I've been fortunate to have attended many concerts. One of the best was The Divine Miss M at The Dorthy Chandler Pavilion, LA on NYE in 80s. Two SOLD OUT SHOWS. Barry in the 80s opened The sold out Pacific Amphitheater Both he and Bette attracted a diverse fan base because of talent and personality. Crowd was mostly on their feet for the whole show for both of these wonderful entertainers the night I saw them.
‘’Broken Blossom’’ - her best album. Best song; ‘’Paradise’’ a previously unreleased Ronettes song done up in full Spector manner (with Ellie Greenwich on backgrounds!)
Sweetie, in ONE WEEK Sandra Shevey interviewed Janis Joplin, Tina Turner, Mick Jagger and John Lennon. I would have interviewed you too Bette but Warren Cowan or Dale Olson pre-empted our meeting because he said I was more preoccupied with Spencer (my then bf) than you or the show. Totally untrue. I could have done the interview in my sleep and I was so looking foward to talking to you.
I’m trying to locate 2 Dinah! Episodes. Episode # 1.143 -May 22, 1975 and Episode # 4.220 - Sept 18, 1978 Would you happen to have them, or iknow where I might find them? Thank you

Completely authentic, unaffected and natural. What a treasure she is and an original. Mwah 💋 love that Bette. And Dinah, what a great host.
Absolutely true. Bette is so natural and unaffected and a joy to watch.
And this is why people have loved her forever. She is the most authentic person ever in show business. When she goes, the world will be in mourning forever.
Like Joan Rivers.
Also when a great comedian like Carol Burnett. She will be ninety next April and I dread the day that she goes...❤
I've been a fan of Bette Midler since I was a kid. And this is the most fun entertaining interview I've ever seen with her. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank u for posting this! Love 💗💕Bette especially in this time period. That photo on the back of the album is my favorite picture of Bette.
What a delightful and engaging interview....a great example of mutual respect for each other as people and as very talented women. I had forgotten how gracious and fun Dinah was on her show!
Dinah is so underrated for her quick wit and her comebacks were as good as Carson’s. And agree with everything you said.
Dinah’s show was awesome!
Thank you for sharing! I'd never seen that before. Very entertaining and enjoyable!
Thanks for posting this! I've loved Bette Midler since her first album, bu never saw this interview. I love her confidence!
Her Courage🙌

BETTE MIDLER.. HAS THE BEST PERSONALITY... SO QUICK AND WITTY...

I love Bette. Who know that Dinah Shore was such a great interviewer!
She looks exquisite here, and she could walk into 2021 like that and look the same way!
Love that Dinah!
Love that Bette!
Dinah is just like sprayable Klonopin! I LOVED HER SHOW AS A KID!!! Love finding her again!!!!

Just amazing to see this gem 💎
WHY ALAN, You never cease to amaze me. Thank you!
Beth speaks so different here.
I love Bette's interviews 😂 she's amazing
Today Dec.1st,2021... 🎉 Happy Birthday Bette! 76 ☆🌹🎂🎤🎬☆
DINAH WAS A HUGE STAR BEFORE BETTE WAS EVEN BORN, THAT IS NOT A PUT DOWN OF BETTE, JUST A COMPLIMENT TO DINAH !
So, why the need for caps?
@@dannydougin3925 WHY NOT !
@@dannydougin3925 let my bro express himself lmaoo
@@dannydougin3925
Maybe he doesn't know that all caps means "the person is yelling" some people don't know that I'd give him the benefit of doubt. 😳
By all accounts, Dinah was a lovely woman...❤
It's Johnny Gilbert announcing!
My mother let me stay home from school so I could watch this show.
The real Bette.
The " Devine Ms M "...so entertaining even when she doesn't sing!
The Andy version?
@@jamesmcinnis208 I'm sure that went over the commenter's head.
@@AManAndAMouse And he didn't even have to duck. That's okay, I do it for my own amusement.

See sandrasheveyinterviews TH-cam
When did you interview Janis? Is there a recording?
Both woman are wearing knee lenght boots. That's why i like the late 70s
Do you have the Dinah! show from January 23, 1975 with director Sam Peckinpah?
Bette is great Dinah pure corn
dinah speaks so sensually 🤣..
I’m trying to locate 2 Dinah! Episodes.
Episode # 1.143 -May 22, 1975 and
Episode # 4.220 - Sept 18, 1978
Would you happen to have them, or iknow where I might find them?
Thank you

@@suewinters1398 Don't have them. Sorry.
@@aeichler Ok,
Thank you -
Notice they don't mention the name :Harlettes!" :)
Why does Bette look like Joyce Beehive on da View. ?

What’s crazy is Bette Midler had already had plastic surgery on that mug of hers…uggg…my god, you couldn’t get it dark enough.
said a bitter communist teenager from a different country.
Second question is about her weight.
gawd, how cringy is that?
Yawn........yawn......yawn.....yawn.....yawn.....yawn.....yawn.....yawn.....yawn.....yawn.....
Dinah is lovely but Bette Midler is a bore --- yawn.
The canned laughter is humiliating
There was a live audience.
It’s obviously a live audience,,, doesn’t sound canned at all.
@@aeichler added in
@@jl3322 You might be right...I think sitcoms with live audiences do that as well...
Talk shows don't use "canned laughter" because they have a live audience.
