Vivino/Sebastian tribute to Laura Nyro - "And When I Die"

[pnyc1969]

Great tribute! Laura's music is eternal.

Nice bluesy feel to a Laura classic. Actually, the 'Soul Picnic' book states that Laura wrote the origins of the song in summer camp at 14, but later in an interview (recounted in the booklet with the double CD Stoned Soul Picnic) she said her late teens. She was wise at an early age. Miss you, Laura!

I saw Jimmy play with Nyro many times. After a gig in STL a bunch of us went out to dinner, and her band was there. Shit, she wasnt, but I went to their table and thanked all of them for a wonderful night of muse. Ended up smokin a bunch of Bidi's and hanging out. Great guys. Thanks Jim for tributing this song to her again. Dang if she didnt write this when she was 17. No one better.

The show was so good, I keep re-living it in my mind. My favorite song the entire evening was When I Die.

Great job on this clip.
