  • Thank you as always to our patron Scott for so many great picks! This was another winner... short, sweet, and to the point. The harmony was TIGHT and so was the instrumentation. Great track.

    Lauro Nyro (1947-1997) was a Genius and wrote tons of hits that went up the charts! You MUST Listen to her first album ELI AND THE 13 CONFESSIONS recorded and released in 1967 when the was 17.
    Between 1968 and 1970, a number of artists had hits with her songs: the 5th Dimension with "Blowing Away", "Wedding Bell Blues", "Stoned Soul Picnic", "Sweet Blindness", and "Save the Country"; Blood, Sweat & Tears and Peter, Paul and Mary with "And When I Die"; Three Dog Night and Maynard Ferguson with "Eli's Comin'"; and Barbra Streisand with "Stoney End", "Time and Love", and "Hands off the Man (Flim Flam Man)". Nyro's best-selling single was her recording of Carole King's and Gerry Goffin's "Up on the Roof". Nyro was posthumously inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2010, and into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012.[

    Laura Nyro wrote a number of hits of the era (1968-70} and she was quite hot for a while, as a singer as well as a songwriter. She wrote five of the Fifth Dimension's singles and is in the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

    Yo, great reaction. This band was the first concert I went to, a birthday present from my sister. What a thrill for a 13-year-old kid! And for a band that was obviously dominated by the talent of these three amazing singers, they were always a complete, genuine band. The guys that played on the recordings also played them on tour...something not so common with a lot of other vocal-centric bands at the time, when the Wrecking Crew was the house band for many other groups. And each member of this ensemble had his chance to shine, not just the singers, for that golden period of hit after hit.

    Things are always changing bro. Everything old is new again. There was a big explosion of new music new fashion new our new sensibilities in the 1920s and then it hit again in the 1960s 70s couple so I predict we’re gonna go through some really hard times, but out of that will blossom new era like we’ve never experienced before one that’s going to be beautiful when that’s gonna be enthusiastically, peaceful and full of love hope and energy

    I have never heard this version with the coda cut off, even on AM radio at the time! One of the great things about Laura Nyro (aside from her compositions and singing) was that she was never precious about others covering her songs even if their versions were more popular.
    She also did great covers, some together with Patti Labelle..."Up On the Roof", "Dancing in the Streets", etc.

    Back in the days of radio, the stations needed advertising revenue to survive. They also wanted to get as many listeners as possible. So most songs were 2 or 2 1/2 minutes (albums often had longer versions, which was a selling point) so the stations could cram as many in as possible.

    Buddy you ain’t kiddin. At one time, AM was all we had. There used to be very few FM but when we had FM they could sometimes play whole albums or long songs like Stairway to Heaven. But before that few songs were longer than 3:30. It was amazing. Unless you could get album versions. Sometimes if you listened late at night, the night time DJs would play longer cuts.
