| Description: | 1994er Live-Album der Super-Songwriterin, bislang nur in Japan erhältlich und exklusiv geremastert.
Mit Versionen von â??And When I Die,â?ť â??Wedding Bell Blues,â?ť â??Stoned Soul Picnicâ?ť und mehr. Als Mitglied sowohl der Songwriters als auch der Rock & Roll Halls of Fame schrieb Laura Nyro nicht nur Songs, die zu Hits fĂĽr Bands wie The 5th Dimension, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Three Dog Night, Barbra Streisand und viele mehr wurden. Auch Kate Bush, Elton John, Elvis Costello, Cyndi Lauper, Todd Rundgren, der Broadway-Komponist Stephen Schwartz (Godspell, Wicked) und unzählige andere haben sie als maĂ?geblichen Einfluss genannt.
Nyro nahm 10 Studioalben auf (eines davon erst posthum veröffentlicht), aber eine Live-Performance von Laura Nyro war immer ein Ereignis. UrsprĂĽnglich nur in Japan als â??Live In Japanâ?? im Jahr 2003 veröffentlicht, mit Laura selbst am Klavier und Gesang, mit Harmonien von Diane Wilson, Dian Sorrell und Diane Garisto, kehren diese 16 Tracks, die in der Kintetsu Hall aufgenommen wurden, plus fĂĽnf weitere, die bei â??On Air Westâ?? aufgenommen wurden, zurĂĽck als â??Trees Of The Ages: Laura Nyro Live In Japanâ??. - ..
