Collection Of Phyllis Hyman
Phyllis Hyman began her career as a silky voiced, jazz-influenced singer
and gradually moved into slick, heavily produced urban contemporary
ballads and light dance numbers. Hyman won a scholarship to music school
and then began her professional career with the group New Direction in
1971. When they disbanded after a national tour, Hyman joined the Miami
ensemble All the People. She also worked there with another local group,
the Hondo Beat, and appeared in the film Lenny. That was followed by a
two-year stint heading Phyllis Hyman & the P/H Factor, before
relocating to New York. Hyman did background vocals on Jon Lucien's
Premonition LP and built her reputation performing in New York clubs.
Norman Connors made her his featured vocalist in the mid-'70s, and she
was highlighted on a cover of the Stylistics' "Betcha By Golly Wow,"
which appeared on Connors' You Are My Starship LP. Hyman also sang with
Pharaoh Sanders & the Fatback Band while cutting two singles as a
lead artist. Buddah released Phyllis Hyman in 1977, but she really began
making an impression when she was signed by Arista the next year. The
songs "Somewhere in My Lifetime" and "You Know How to Love Me" both made
the R&B Top 20. Hyman got her lone Top Ten hit in 1981 with "Can't
We Fall in Love Again," but her albums did consistently well through the
'80s. The production teams of Mtume/Reggie Lucas and Narada Michael
Walden/Thom Bell gave her material that showcased her skill with
sophisticated ballads. Hyman had more success when she left Arista for
Philadelphia International in 1986, with the single "Living All Alone"
putting her back in the R&B Top 20. She also sang on fusion and
light jazz dates by Joe Sample, Ronnie Foster, and Grover Washington,
Jr., a more conventional jazz session for McCoy Tyner, and a pop date
with the Four Tops. Tragically, Hyman took her own life on June 30,
1995; Forever With You was issued posthumously. Allmusic by Ron Wynn
