  • Oh God! This is FASCINATING and BEAUTIFUL! Where in the world did you find this? Have you got any other Laura demos? I would LOVE to hear how any of the beautiful tunes on "More than a new discovery" sounded in this early stage. I always wondered what "Stoney end" or "He's a runner" or "Wedding Bell Blues" sounded like when Laura was just crafting them at the piano!

  • Pretty amazing, eh? I wish there were more. Just this and And When I Die. A short cd that came with the new book called "Laura Nyro: Lyrics & Reminiscences" has them. We should contact her publisher or family or somebody. If there are more recordings I would sure love to hear them too.

  • Hi Caveatemp. I loved your " And When I Die" video. Peace & Love to you!!!!!

    Laura songs/lp's? Your 3 are excellent choices. My favorites right now are: Timer, Blackpatch, Lu/ Flimflam Man( the demo version), Map to the Treasure. Christmas in my Soul. O.K. - narrowing it down to 5 was hard enough! "I am the Blues" is up there on my list too. I was "Luckie" enough to see Laura live in Chicago twice. Oops, gotta get ready for work....your friend, Cathy

  • Wow! What year was it when you saw her?

    Good choices. I know, it's too hard to narrow it to three. It's like having only three foods on a desert island.

  • This is the first time I have heard this and trust me... not much that Laura laid down has escaped me. This is so different than the version that is on the PL. She is so deep in to lyric!

  • What a terrific pic, havent seen that one. terrif,

    

  •  great

  • this is awesome!! i am in floods of tears!! x thankyou for a lovely post x

  • caveatemp, nice try, but very disappointed your photo array cropped the picture of Laura, Maria, and Scootie. You showed all of Laura's tom cats, but neglected her favorite "She-line."

  • Don't miss this song as released on her album along with "Goodbye Joe"

  • This is so BEAUTIFUL!! Much deeper than what she recorded for her first album. Where oh where can I get a copy of this? unless you plan to keep it on YouTube forever and ever amen.....

  • truely a gift. so slow and amazing. so sweet to see that pic. loved.

  • Great video! Thanks for uploading. It's too bad this song isn't better known.

  • thank you so much - you always think you've heard everything and suddenly something new and unexpected turns up. You've made my day. love the vid.
