Season of Lights

“Season of Lights” Laura Nyro in Concert.   Columbia Records   (1976)   Cover art by Rokuro Taniuchi.   Originally conceived as a double live album,   the full set is finally now available as a Japanese CD release.   The band included jazz players John Tropea, Richard Davis, and Mike Mainieri that had performed on Nyro’s then-current studio album ‘Smile’.   I saw her at Tanglewood in Massachusettes on June 26, 1976 (Section 4, Row D, Seat 21) on this “comeback” tour and some of the songs from that night’s show are included on this album.

    Q: Reporter to Ed Kemper: “What do you think now when you
    see a pretty girl walking down the street?”

    A: One side of me says, ‘Wow, what an attractive chick,
    I’d like to talk to her, date her.’ The other side of me
    says, ‘I wonder how her head would look on a stick?’
