there was in those daze, nothing better than to See Ms. Nyro, surrey on to the stage, move her hair, touch the rose, the silence, then the moment.
ReplyDeleteLaura Nyro: A truly Beautiful Lady, who wrote, sang, and played, straight from her Soul, some of the most amazing music this world has ever known. How I wish I could have been there for her, but alas, as a kid, I was completely clueless, only knowing the cover versions of her awesome songs, and the songs of other Artists who were influenced by her - they were all played heavily on the radio, while Laura herself remained the music industry's best kept secret. I know better now, and I hope that somewhere out in the Heavens, Laura knows that her loyal Tribe is still growing.
