Laura Nyro - My Innocence

This is a cut from Nyro's somewhat forgotten 1978 effort, "Nested." The album was rescued from obscurity in 2008 by Iconoclassic Records, who reissued it on CD. It's definitely worth picking up for not only this cut, but several other classic Laura tunes like "The Sweet Sky" and "Mr. Blue." There's some nice guitar work on this song and it's most likely played by Vinnie Cusano, who later joined Kiss under the name Vinnie Vincent.

Nested is a sublime masterpiece from beginning to end. R.I.P Laura 8 April 1997.

I just became a Laura fan a month ago, and I've been ordering her albums, one per week, I just received "Gonna take a miracle" My next purchase will be "Smile", and then this one. So far, I LOVE everything I've heard by her, she has quickly become my favorite Female Artist of all time! Thank you for giving me a sneak preview, looking forward to "Nested"!

@scott10221969 I've known Vinnie since long before his Kiss days, and he is a very accomplished jazz guitarist who kinda sold out for money in my opinion. I hate all of that bs tapping hard rock crap he did, and i know he hates some of it too.

[scott10221969]

Imagine if he would have started a finger tapping, all out rock solo!

I love Vinnie always.
