In the summer of 1966, an 18-year-old Laura Nyro auditioned for Milt Okun, one of the most respected music producers of the day, and Artie Mogull, a noted A&R man. After the session, these eventual music business legends, were so blown away that Mogull became her manager, and Okun signed on to produce her debut record, More Than Just A Discovery. The first song she performed, "And When I Die" became the opening track to Peter, Paul, And Mary's hit album, The Peter, Paul, And Mary Album, and achieved even bigger success with the cover by Blood, Sweat, & Tears, reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Charts in 1969. Quite a song with which to begin an audition! Nyro certainly wrote other future smashes delivered to the charts by artists like Three Dog Night ("Eli's Coming"), The 5th Dimension ("Stoned Soul Picnic," "Save The Country," and "Wedding Bell Blues"), Barbra Streisand ("Stoney End"), and more, but it was Nyro's heart, soul, songwriting brilliance and magnificent vocal talent that drove music fans to discover her own work. Restored and mastered by Grammy-winning engineer Michael Graves, and produced for release by Grammy-winner Cheryl Pawelski and George Gilbert, Go Find The Moon: The Audition Tape is available here on vinyl LP, cut at 45 rpm, with liner notes from journalist Jim Farber. From Farber's notes - "Here, Laura Nyro led the way, with a performance that captured an artist who, however young, was, at root, already fully formed."
