I've definitely got a soft spot for Laura.
Not my favourite album of hers but very listenable.
Got a bit behind with the listening; too much computers and not enough music
7/10 i reckon.

Laura Nyro was one of those rare artists that only come along once in a while. Passionate, soulful and with a distinctive singing style. Like Janis Joplin, she sadly died far to early. 8/10 from me.
This quote posted by someone on YouTube sums it up:
Where are the David Geffens of today...to find and shepherd through this crazy business, the artists who like Laura must be out there somewhere? Such a wonderful soul as hers and Joni's may never reach us today as they struggle against the tide of Lady Gaga and the host of circus clowns masquerading as "artists".
