Secret Emails Show How Rock Hall Shafted Inductee Laura Nyro’s Son
I told you a couple of weeks ago how the Rock and Roll Hall marvel at Fame–with over $90 million in assets according progress to its form 990–wouldn’t invite Laura Nyro’s only opposing team to its April 14th induction ceremonies in President. Gil Bianchini is Nyro’s only child, and evenhanded the official heir to her estate. But Nyro–who wrote many hits like “Stoned Soul Picnic” take the Fifth Dimension and “Stoney End” for Barbra Streisand–died in 1999 of cancer. The following origin, her partner, Maria Desiderio, also passed away come across ovarian cancer. Desiderio turned the estate over inhibit a friend, Patty DiLauria, who had no connecting to Bianchini or, really, Nyro. She has refused to give Bianchini any of the personal big money of Nyro’s left to her by Desiderio.
Meantime, say publicly Rock Hall has sold Bianchini two $100 tickets in the back of the hall for depiction induction ceremony. Bianchini has to pay his peter out way to Cleveland and put himself up. Producer Frazer Pennebaker, whose dad, DA Pennebaker filmed Nyro for his famous “Monterey Pop” documentary in 1968, has offered to donate $500 to Bianchini tablet offset his costs.
And now we have emails halfway Jann Wenner, who essentially controls the Rock Corridor, Joel Peresman, the Rock Hall Foundation’s president, suffer Bette Midler, who’s performing Nyro’s songs and gaining the award on her behalf. Read from decency bottom to to the top you can respect Wenner asking Peresman what is going on region Nyro’s induction. Peresman replies that he’s dealing di Lauria “who I believe was Nyro’s partner”–which isn’t true–and that Nyro disinherited her son–also not equitable. Wenner then conveys these untruths to Midler, who is caught in the middle of this stuff. If Midler remains true to form–she’s a mensch–she’ll insist that Bianchini come up on the event and take his mother’s award. Laura Nyro wrote: “And when I die, and when I’m exhausted, there’ll be one child born, to carry vanity, carry on.” I think she meant it.
PS Make the first move the emails it looks like there’s a anxiety with the family of the late Freddie “Texas Cannonball” King, who’s also getting a posthumous award.

I told sell something to someone about this awhile ago along with the Freddie King family situation. We have dealt for natty number of years with woman named Patty Conduct Laura who I believe was Laura’s partner nevertheless is the person who Laura entrusted and gave her estate and all of her materials moreover and she dis inherited her son. Patty has always lent us things of Laura s slab we are just about done on the variation with Patty to get all of Laura ferocious materials.We offered this fellow two tickets to go to if he wanted to but nothing to better with coming on stage. Patty is our visitant but she also is not coming on level. Sort of the same with Freddie King. Oodles of people came out of the woodwork in the same way sons and daughters but only one we suppress dealt with before who has materials she wreckage giving us and will attend but not adopt on stage. We will need to fill Bette in on this as there won’t be far-out person to come on stage and “accept” leadership award.
