Laura Day 2 - Bronx Pastoral

Tucking it in just before midnight UK-time, it's today's entry for our Laura Nyro Celebration Advent Calendar! This song is astonishing and beautiful. Astonishing because Laura wrote and recorded this when she was no more than 18, and how did she manage to evoke an English pastoral idyll when she was growing up in The Bronx? Beautiful because - well, just have a listen! I think of the Cotswolds or Malvern Hills - or even Devon in summer ;))

Your new favorite! Wherever it may be, it is a nice little fantasy place on a dark cold night.

It’s the yin and yang of it, isn’t it? It’s good to just enjoy the season we’re in, but a touch of the opposite is really nice :)

Another lovely one, made even more remarkable because of her young age when creating it.
