  • @neverforeverkate We oldsters from the 60's got to see and hear all the great bands. ;)

  • Great version of a great song.

  • I miss this woman and her music so much . if ever there was a challenger for the talent of Joni Mitchell , Laura was that person .

  • Thank you for sharing this gem.

  • Thanks for having the Laura nyro video's

  • I saw her do this song live in NY City in the park around '77 or '78 . Blew us all away then, and me away again now. Thank you so much!

  • Isn't this from the recoding done at the Bottom Line?

    If so it is indeed rare because the cd had (or perhaps still is) out of print for so long. I am lucky to have had it all these years since I bought it the day it was released.. way back when.

  • EK, thank you, Grazi, Gracias, Merci for this amazing beautiful clip of the greatest singer songwriter of my generation! I grew up with Laura and saw her many times live, what many don't understand is that she became a Mystic.....otherworldly, mysterious and magical, she transcended, a true artist the likes of which we shall probably never see again....there is a book about her life now, I hope there will be a film someday, future generations need to learn about Laura..,

  • Wow, very cool...thankxxx
