专辑介绍: 　　萝拉尼罗（Laura Nyro, 1947年10月18日 — 1997年4月8日）生于美国的纽约，因癌症于1997年4月8日去世。 作为一个歌手、词曲作者、钢琴演奏家、吉他手和艺术家的身份，萝拉尼罗是公认的流行乐和摇滚乐曆史上最出色天才之一。 　　她最初於 1966年发行首张个人专辑，随后自1967至1971年发行了一系列杰出的专辑如： Eli and the Thirteenth Confession、New York Tendaberry、Christmas and the Beads of Sweat、Gonna Take a Miracle 等； 1971年24岁的Laura Nyro退出乐坛，1977年复出，并发行了 Smile , Live at the Bottom Line 等优秀专辑直到1997年因卵巢癌去世。 　　Laura Nyro 独树一帜的将福音 (Gospel) 、爵士乐 (Jazz) 、蓝调 (Blues) 、民谣 (Folk) 、摇滚乐 (Rock) 、灵歌 (Soul) 等风格，利用她有力多变的嗓音完美融合在她独特和弦编配的歌曲中，因此她的风格影响深远，包括 Todd Rundgren 、 Joni Mitchell 、 Rickie Lee Jones 等等。 .........特别邀请到跨领域美声歌后Ann Sally安 佐里参与演唱，从托派与Laura Nyro萝拉．尼罗所一同录制的最后专辑「Angel In The Dark」中撷取而出的「Will You Love Me Tomorrow」、「La La Means I love You」两首歌曲。此外，特别收录的这两首歌曲还有另一种涵义，不单是在演奏专辑中可以欣赏到美妙歌声，而是於吉他教父约翰．托派的爵士乐专辑中收录两首流行歌曲，以及由疗伤系爵士女伶安 佐里来演唱流行歌曲，如此难得可贵的突破表现，这般丰富精采的融合爵士鉅作，绝对值得您的聆听！ 03. Will You Love Me Tomorrow明天你是否爱我 歌坛才女Carole King卡洛金所作的发烧金曲，收录在1971年「Tapestry／织锦画」这张经典专辑中，在此由爵士女伶Ann Sally安 佐里用她细致温暖的柔和美声来詮释。 12. LA LA MEANS I LOVE YOU 啦~啦~代表我爱妳 收录於1968年费城灵魂乐团The Delfonics的「La La Means I love You」专辑中，在此藉由Leon Pendarvis里昂．潘达维斯巧妙的编曲，搭配Ann Sally安 佐里温暖舒畅的歌声，来展现不同於原作的抒情风格。 　　Nyro peaked early, and Eli and the Thirteenth Confession, just her second album, remains her best. It's not only because it contains the original versions of no less than three songs that were big hits for other artists: "Sweet Blindness" (covered by the 5th Dimension), "Stoned Soul Picnic" (also covered by the 5th Dimension), and "Eli's Comin'" (done by Three Dog Night). It's not even just because those three songs are so outstanding. It's because the album as a whole is so outstanding, with its invigorating blend of blue-eyed soul, New York pop, and early confessional singer/songwriting. Nyro sang of love, inscrutably enigmatic romantic daredevils, getting drunk, lonely women, and sensual desire with an infectious joie de vivre. The arrangements superbly complemented the material with lively brass, wailing counterpoint backup vocals, and Nyro's own ebullient piano. The 2002 CD reissue adds three previously unreleased demos, with no instrumental accompaniment save piano, of "Lu," "Stoned Soul Picnic," and "Emmie."

Lankford, Jr. [-] Angel in the Dark is a lovely recording featuring the graceful vocals and finely crafted songs that everyone expects from Laura Nyro. These sessions were completed in the summer of 1995 and represent the last music Nyro recorded. The title cut and "Sweet Dream Fade" mine the same soul terrain as her late '60s recordings, featuring horns and underlined by heavy guitar riffs. These upbeat pieces perfectly integrate voice, arrangements, and lyrics to create an organic whole, and are two of the best cuts on the album. Slower, piano-based songs like "Triple Goddess Twilight," "He Was Too Good to Me," and "Serious Playground" are mixed in-between these songs. These pieces are quieter and introspective, with Nyro's voice more intimate. It is almost as though she was sitting at the piano, late at night, and singing to herself. There are also several covers including "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" and "Let It Be Me." The first of these is over five minutes and has been slowed down so much that it drags. In fact, she slows down all of the covers as if to convert them into heartfelt ballads. This works best on "Ooh Baby, Baby," partly because the arrangement is fuller and more dynamic. One other standout is the upbeat "Gardenia Talk," filled with lively percussion and a sensual vocal. Angel in the Dark is a fine coda, perfect for late-night listening, and a perfect companion to Nyro's other recordings.
