I think Laura Nyro was second only to Joni and maybe Bob Dylan. In fact, Nyro 
even transcended Joni in some ways. I would go so far as to say that until 
Joni produced "Blue," Laura was more mature and profound. If you love Joni 
and you're unfamiliar with Nyro's classic trilogy of albums--"Eli And The 
Thirteenth Confession" (1968), "New York Tendaberry" (1969), and "Christmas 
And The Beads Of Sweat" (1970)-- I suggest you RUN to get them...NOW!
