📰#ArtIsAWeapon Glad to hear that @bluesalleydc can be repaired and will reopen! While I lived in the DC area, I saw so many unforgettable music artists perform at this beloved venue (including and especially #PhyllisHyman)! Onward to the owners and staff! Reposted from @bluesalleydc Blues Alley is temporarily closed due to last nights unfortunate occurrence, they are currently assessing the damage and how long it will take to re-open.   Some news reports have exaggerated the severity of the water damage which is confined to the 2nd floor and roof only.  The club will re-open very soon.   Any shows cancelled will be rescheduled as soon as possible and we ask you to wait before requesting a refund until the new date is confirmed.   If you can’t make the rescheduled date then a refund will be given.  We appreciate your patience on this and more information will be available soon. #BluesAlley #MusicVenues #DCMusicVenues #DCIsMySecondHome #WillTravelForMusic (at Blues Alley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkME1psvfTU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today We Honor Phyllis Hyman

Phyllis Linda Hyman was an American singer-songwriter and actress, born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania July 6, 1949. She was best known for her singles from the late 1970s through the early 1990s including: You Know How to Love Me, Living All Alone, and Don’t Wanna Change the World.

She performed on a national tour with the group, New Direction. Later she joined All the People while working with another group, The Hondo Beat. She made her acting debut in 1974 in the film Lenny. Hyman also led a group called Phyllis Hyman and the P/H Factor.

Hyman’s debut solo album named Phyllis Hyman was released in 1977 on Buddah Records. When Arista Records bought Buddah Records, she transferred to the new label and released four albums: Somewhere in My Lifetime (1979), You Know How to Love Me (1979), Can’t We Fall in Love Again? (1981), and Goddess of Love (1983).

She also performed on Broadway in the musical, Sophisticated Ladies, the tribute play for Duke Ellington. For that work, she received a Tony Award, nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Musical, and won a Theatre World Award for Best Newcomer.

In 1983 Hyman recorded the song “Never Say Never Again” for the James Bond movie of the same name which starred Sean Connery but the song she recorded couldn’t be used for the movie soundtrack due to legal reasons. In 1986 Hyman released the album, Living All Alone, on the Philadelphia International label. She also appeared in the movies, Too Scared to Scream (1985), Spike Lee’s School Daze (1988), and The Kill Reflex (1989).

In 1991 Phyllis Hyman released the album, The Prime of My Life, on Philadelphia International, which was the biggest album of her career. It included her first number-one R&B hit as well her first Billboard Top 100 hit, Don’t Wanna Change the World. The album, her last released while she was alive, was certified gold by 1992.

Phyllis Hyman… One of the Greatest Artists of our Lifetime.
