5.0 out of 5 stars Prepare to wet your pants!!!! She's hilarious!, April 15, 2003

Bette Midler gets funny, silly and raunchy in this live comedy album. If you've not hear her hilarity, then you've been living under a rock, my friend. So get out from beneath that boulder and listen to her fling mud at cleebrities galore. This is not to say that she's bashing them. She flings the mud on herself, too. Nothing like self-depricating humor to counter that thrown on others!

She rants on topics from celebrity weddings to weight jokes to old people having sex and fart jokes. Nothing is sacred to Bette Midler. She's not afraid to offend. Hear her story about teh invention of the brassiere and her WHY BOTHER? act. Hilarious!

This is one of those rare jewels that people don't realize exists. This may be the best little hidden secret in the comedy album world. Get it and you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars I laughed so hard I cried, September 12, 1998

This review is from: Mud Will Be Flung Tonight (Audio CD)

This is Bette's only true comedy album. She only sings as a part of her act, and does none of her songs that people have grown to love. But she still delivers pure Bette. The tracks are quick and move into each other easily, and in nearly every single one there are moments when you simply must laugh out loud. The album ends all to quickly leaving you wanting more, and I listened to it over and over,and still do whenever I want to laugh and forget my troubles. Mud WILL Be Flung Tonight is a wonderful collection of humor, wit, and classic Bettisms, that pokes fun at the industry and herself. And of course there are plenty of remarks concerning her ample bosom. This is a must have for any Bette fan, as it reminds us of her concerts and movies. Midler really shines, and the gift of laughter is always precious, especially at such a wonderful price. Buy the album, it will make you laugh.

5.0 out of 5 stars Olivia Newton-John was married in Santa Barbera..., November 25, 2003

This review is from: Mud Will Be Flung Tonight (Audio CD)

This is hillarious. I am listening to it right now.
The Marriage, Movies, Madonna, and Mick, will make you scream. She talks about getting married the same weekend as Olivia Newton-John (who I greatly adore too!) and Sally Feild. When she talks about Madonna, you will die. LIKE A VIRGIN,YEAH!
Also, you will find hillarious the "Otto Titsling," and The Sophie Tucker jokes. Bette does not sing too much, but this is definatly not one to be missed. If you Loved "DIVINE MADNESS," you will need to purchace this.
