The great thing about Phyllis is that she soars in her lows just as much as she does in her highs. Most singers these these days are conditioned to always go for the strong high note all the time. That's why everyone sings alike now.

I feel so fortunate to have seen Phyllis perform live nine times. A friend introduced me to her music in the late 70s around the same time as Jean Carne and Angela Bofill. Phyllis brought me through so much in life with her sultry, vocals unlike anyone else. I saw her last at SOBs in NYC a few months before she took her life. My friend and I cried like babies as if a part of us was now missing. I loved her so much and still do, sometimes dreaming of her performing. I just pray like so many here that she's no longer in pain but is giving voice lessons to the angels. Thanks for posting this.

Phyllis Hyman was the headliner for the annual President's Concert at Grambling State University back in 1991. I was a sophomore and blown away by the fact that I had a front row seat at this concert. I thoroughly enjoyed the show and vowed to see her again when I graduated and earned my own money. Little did I know that this was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Phyllis adored Nancy and felt "If you can't sing like Nancy, why bother?". Nancy also adored Phyllis and said, "She had the best pipes". They were great friends and actually had brunch or lunch together on Father's Day before Phyllis left us. Watch the Essence Awards video here on KZitem with Phyllis and Melba Moore singing Superwoman to honor Gladys Knight. If you blink you might miss is right at the beginning of the clip but Nancy Wilson is in the audience. The whole problem was.....they were trying to make Phyllis a Paula Abdul or Martha Wash and not let her follow in Nancy's footsteps as she was meant to.
