Eli & The Thirteenth Confession (Japanese paper sleeve edition – with bonus tracks)
CD (Item 468976) Columbia (Japan), 1968 — Condition: New Copy
Groundbreaking work from Laura Nyro – exactly the kind of record that sums up the unique genius in her music! The record's not folk, not pop, not soul, nor jazz vocals – but a new sort of style that draws a bit from all those genres, and comes up with a bold new approach that opened the door for countless other female singers in years to come. Despite the fame of the record, and many attempts to copy its genius over the years, Nyro is completely without cliche here – unique in her approach and presentation of the material, and as personally possessed as she is fragile and introspective. Arrangements are by Charlie Calello, and really get the spirit of the tunes right – and titles include "Luckie", "Lonely Women", "Emmie", "Timer", "Eli's Comin", "December's Boudouir", "Stoned Soul Picnic", "Woman's Blues", and "Once It Was Alright Now". CD also features 3 bonus tracks – demo versions of "Lu", "Stoned Soul Picnic", and "Emmie". (Incredible package – with the fold-out lyric paper of the original pressing of the album!) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
