Stunning! I’ve been a Laura Nyro fan since she released Eli. Mention her name these days and it doesn’t ring all the bells that it should. Joni wouldn’t be Joni, Elton wouldn’t be Elton, and Rickie Lee wouldn’t be Rickie Lee (and so many others) if it weren’t for Laura Nyro... Anyone who helps keep her memory alive is a saint in my book. Kudos & thank you!

Arranjo maravilhoso. Belíssima homenagem para nossa eterna Laura Nyro!

Eu AMO Laura Nyro! Ela é uma das melhores cantoras/compositoras de todos os tempos! Creativa e única, e não preocupada com o sucesso comercial. There’s no one else who’s like her, but she influenced so many women singer/songwriters who came after her. An amazing artist, realmente!

Nicely done

[@michaelg3074]

I just subscribed. If i get my trumpet chops together, I'll do a Laura album. My favorite song writer

[@lilredscout]

do it. we need her to not be forgotten. A new doc is on the way.

[@iandowney4630]

@@lilredscout When is a new documentary coming out? Any idea where it will be available to watch? I’ve loved her since I first heard her…early 70s. One of my all time favorites!! I’d love to see a documentary about her- again!

[@lilredscout]

@@iandowney4630 its all way in the beginning right now. Celection of staff, writers, content, editors, etc. I would imagine a good year or more. That would be my guess.

[@lilredscout]

you know her dad trumpeted right? That is so throughout her earlier works. First three. Brass baby Brass, and violins, flutes....

[@iandowney4630]

@@lilredscout I'll look forward to seeing it...whenever it does come out!

[@craigdylan3953]

Nice version. Too bad Laura Nyro was so far ahead of her time. Laura, you are sorely missed.......
