Description
This seminal 1969 recording, acclaimed by critics as a masterpiece, elevated Nyro to a new musical level and to this very day remains a unique, enigmatic and totally stunning musical statement. If at the time you had Moondogs 1969 Columbia recording or Terry Rileys In C in your collection, the chances are you were also listening to New York Tendaberry. This album was not for the faint hearted, it was for the musical connoisseur seeking new boundaries, and this album gave you precisely that. It was starker and darker than her previous more commercial recordings, yet not gloomy, it was a very personal album that on first listening may not have seemed accessible, but on subsequent listenings insidiously entered the very marrow of your musical consciousness. This was her Blue, her Astral Weeks, her Satanic Majesties Request, it was simply the pinnacle of her career.
This recording, sublimely re-mastered by Ray Staff (twice!!!), has never ever sounded so good, and full credit should go to him and Pure Pleasure for extracting every last nuance from this musical masterpiece!
