Who is Laura Nyro and what did she do?
I grew up with the early 60’s and 70’s bands but have no idea who this person is!?
(I know .. Google it!)
But I’m asking for others that may not know!
I have no idea who that lady is.
Odds are in the late 60s, if you turned on the radio you would have heard one of her songs:
Between 1968 and 1970 a number of artists had significant hits with her songs: The 5th Dimension with “Blowing Away”, “Wedding Bell Blues”, “Stoned Soul Picnic”, “Sweet Blindness”, “Save The Country” and “Black Patch”; Blood, Sweat & Tears and Peter, Paul & Mary with “And When I Die”; Three Dog Night and Maynard Ferguson with “Eli’s Coming”; and Streisand with “Stoney End”, “Time and Love”, and “Hands off the Man (Flim Flam Man)”.
