2. I forgot about her -
trying hard unsuccessfully to find video of her singing! She hits some amazing notes, beautiful voice!

10. As a singer and a songwriter, she
was both fabulous and underappreciated.. Probably known best for other people's renditions of her songs, like "Eli's Coming", by Three Dog Night, "And When I Die" by Blood Sweat and Tears, etc.

13. Wiltern was packed with artists there to worship her.
She hadn’t done a concert in years. This was an incredibly rare and special night.
Our seats were about 12th row. Madonna and Warren Beatty were in front of us. Nyro was mesmerizing. |

6. Not just a singer, also an incredible writer. She wrote a lot of other groups hits.
The "Fifth Dimension" got famous from her songs.

17. I once posted something like this here, some years ago-
1980's singer, white guy with some facial hair, sounded black, can't remember his name. Within minutes I had the name I couldn't remember, Grayson Hugh.
