2. It's way past time!
R&R hall of fame, Nyro wrote some big songs in the '60s. Some of us like her rendition better than the big hit
(eg Stoned Cold Picnic or Save the Children)

8. When I was in high school, I thought she was my soul mate.
I was fortunate to have seen her 3 times. There are some good videos of her online.

The most passionate, vulnerable soul who ever lived.
