The Divine Miss M is returning to BBC Radio 2 with her For The Girls show.
Fans will get another chance to hear Bette Midler celebrate the music of her favourite girl groups, as the 2014 broadcast is repeated on Sunday.
“A long, long, time ago I fell in love with voices in harmony. It almost didn’t matter what the songs were… it was the sound of human voices blending together,” the singer/actress explained.
“I never recovered from that initial assault on my senses and, in particular, I loved female voices singing together.
“Growing up when I did, I was lucky enough to hear and fall in love with so many great girl groups – these girls had A SOUND!”
The programme features tracks from 1930’s stars The Boswell Singers, and war-time favourites The Andrews Sisters, all the way through to the Spice Girls and Wilson Phillips.
The Chiffons, The Shirelles, The Shangri-Las, and The Dixie Cups also star, along with Midler’s personal recollections of the tracks, and examples of how they inspired her own music.
Tune in to Radio 2 on Sunday at 5 pm UK time.
