Nyro's long-time label Columbia Records wanted a brand new studio album from Nyro, who had stayed with the label despite not having had a reasonable commercial success for well over a decade. Instead, she decided she wanted to go on the road and record a new live album. Columbia did not approve, and a deal was negotiated allowing Nyro to release the live album on a different label, Cypress, before returning to Columbia for another studio album. Live at the Bottom Line was recorded at New York's famous intimate venue, The Bottom Line, and mixes some of Nyro's famous compositions with newer ones and also previously unreleased songs. OverviewThis live album, which follows twelve years after Season of Lights, was recorded during Nyro's tour in 1988. Her voice had been recovering after she gave up her smoking habit, and the atmosphere of the album is notably relaxed and entertaining. Recorded on Remote Recording Service's Black Truck with David Hewitt. Nyro's six new songs here are often humorous and light-hearted in stark contrast to the wild and adventurous music on her earliest albums and the more world-conscious songs of her most recent studio albums. It was very well received by critics, and earned Nyro several new interviews and articles. The album was not a commercial success, however, and Nyro would not release another live album during her lifetime. After the release of Laura: Live at the Bottom Line, Nyro recorded two new studio albums, of which only one was released, and a retrospective collection before her death in 1997. Nyro paid $18,000 for a quarter-page black and white advertisement in Rolling Stone magazine. Track listingAll tracks composed by Laura Nyro; except where indicated
The song "Broken Rainbow" had been written and recorded for an Oscar-nominated documentary of the same name in 1985, and was included in re-recorded form on 1993's Walk the Dog and Light the Light. The final song is a medley. Personnel
