There are songs spanning seven decades on the album, from ’30s trios The Boswell Sisters and The Andrews Sisters to ’90s act TLC.
“I have loved the sound of females harmonising since I was a kid; I always sang along. Didn’t we all?” Midler told Billboard.
“I think the idea that you could become part of the group was the thing that endeared me to the girl groups. You weren’t just singing along, you were THERE!”
