...I have listened to this cd after a pause of a couple of years and it surprised me. Some somgs I didn't like a lot in the beginning have become my new favorites."Big Noise From Winnetka" is a fun song that I knew before, from the Divine Madness video, but I have to say the studio version is a little weaker than the engaging live performance, and as with another track on this album, Bette's voice can harldy be heard under the Harlettes and the music. The songs is typically 6 mins+ long as it was in vogue back then, but it could have been better.
"Millworker" is a great piano tune, with great vocals and lyrics delivered with a genuine touch by our Divine Miss M. Thank you.
"Cradle Days" is one those I'm not really fond of (yet), but it's not too long after that that "My Knight In Black Leather" takes over and storms your stereo. In true Village People fashion, a fantastically gay gay song, with male choir, and maybe too little something. Can't quite put my finger on what it is, but it's a great song I fell in love with right from the beginning. Have you ever seen Bette perform it at the Musikladen in Germany? Hilariously camp.
"Hang On In There Baby" is one of those, what can I call it, Disco Ballad, with a great light Disco base, lovely vocals and arrangement. Along with "Hurricane", the track I love the most here, it's the great Disco Bette tune in my opinion, two tracks that deserved way more attention.
"Hurricane" begins with whispering waves (well, kinda) and Bette's intro is a favorite of mine, like the rest of the song, but hearing that alone makes me happy. The is a drumming of some sort of "Hawaiian" ...well, drum, that I also love.
Right now I don't remember how "Rain" goes, but personally, I don't really care for this or "Married Man".
"Married Man" is more of a rock-orietanted disco track. I know it was like the only hit from this album, but it makes no difference to me.
If you like Bette Midler, and like Disco, this album is for you.
This is the album that got me looking for the Disco albums that several artists committed to in the craze of the 70s.
It is one of the best in my opinion
