Laura Nyro 01 Dedicated To The One I Love

[GuyJon57]

she must have been unhappy in her later years in carrying all that extra weight... i think she was hurting, still she brought a unique sound in music that moved us to tears and fun...

[4qbilly]

She belongs in "The Glass Bead Game". The best of our dying race.

Hey Journey: The dawg has to call you on that inappropriate comment about her weight. Aside from the fact that Laura was one of the most beautiful souls that ever sweetened this earth, she was dying of ovarian cancer and the medications and the awful illness caused sever inflammation. Yet listen to that precious voice, even in all that pain and discomfort. She lives on forever in these beautiful tomes, just as your inappropriate comment will live on. Which would you prefer? Speak up people!

[vonnieknight]

Thank you so much for recording this concert-- i really appreciate it .

[journeythruthepast]

I didn't know she was such a big woman by this point in her life. Girl was packin junk in the trunk but hey, that's irrelevant. Talent and charm were all the same! Laura will always be missed. Fantastic talent and it's a damn shame the music biz was too much for her to handle and she had sporadic releases after 1973.

[youspoppa]

[engpauloh]

It seems that play any song is very, very easy. Laura Nyro does this magic for us. What a beautiful woman... in every way.

I guess God wanted Laura for himself. I miss her so much.

[Thejbirdy]

Damn, if you'd only bought a tripod.

[SigMaQuint]

As a young girl I was enchanted by this song. It was complex enough to be interesting, at the same time as it carried the hope that love could endure.

[idigyoubaby]

Like no other. I remember the first time I ever heard her was on a compilation album I picked up in the early 70's. Laura was on it with Blackpatch. I knew from the moment I heard that song that she was special.

[andrewcasarsa]

carole King!!!

[heartyblack]

What a brave woman. In every sense.

[nurikara]

[anlrcptvchnkcnt]

why is performing behind a chain link fence?

[sappleseed]

What a voice. What a musician. What a woman.  RIP Angel.

[barney906]

God...this is brilliant !

[atisaseret]

An unparallelled Genius...bar none!

What an AMAZING WOMAN!

[BCraingirl]

I just discovered her after watching Elton John on Elvis' Costello's show say how much she influenced his music. I wish I had found out about her music earlier. Wonderful!

[dmkfhq]

Isn't it amazing how she could take any song and make it her own?

[uVueD2b]

She sings a cover like no other....If you haven't-check out Laura's version of "Will You Still Love Me Tommorrow". Incredible how Laura had the mind to turn it from a pop tune to a more sensual and moving piece.

[EmpressOfWyoming58]

Her vibratto is so rich here. She wrote some of my all time favorite songs.

[cindylear2001]

OMG!!! I LOVE Laura. It means so much to me to see her live. Her brother lived next store to me in Manhattan in the mid 1970's. God Bless You sweet Angel you are so missed.

[tmmmviii]

@cindylear2001

Could her brother sing?

[thetopper1]
