Music reviews of Mother's Spiritual
Music Review: More Exceptional Laura Nyro
Rating: 5 Stars
This review is of the June 2009 Iconoclassic remastered version of the album. Finally, an affordable version on CD - and of excellent audio quality, I might add.
Some of the reviews make mention of the style change in Ms. Nyro's music pre and post her Smile album and I agree. Mother's Spiritual continues in that post-smile style and myself, I love all of her albums. The lyrics in this one are as personal as any of her other albums and the songs are quite melodic. This is another must-have for all Laura Nyro fans. I would say that it is also more "accessible" than her earlier works because of the melodies and more conventional tempos of the songs.
Also included are excellent and incisive liner notes from Michelle Kort, and complete lyrics.
It's one totally beautiful album from a beautiful person. Big thanks to Iconoclassics for doing such a fine job of remastering!

Description of Mother's Spiritual
Laura Nyro s ninth album 'Mother s Spiritual' was the second of her two 'maternal' albums (1978 s Nested being the first). Mother s Spiritual broke a long silence upon its release in 1984, being Nyro s first new release in over five years, and was itself followed by a nearly decade-long absence from the studio. In contrast to the wild, adventurous music with which Nyro first made her reputation, 'Mother s Spiritual' exhibits a calm, serene, piano-centered sound. At the same time, Nyro introduces political, motherhood (both of a child and of the earth), feminist, and environmentalist themes into her writing. Thematically ahead of its time upon its initial release, 'Mother s Spiritual' was incredibly prescient with lyrics that are relevant to today s world. Cherished by longtime fans, 'Mother s Spiritual' has never before been widely available on CD.Folk CDs
