Picture of Phyllis Hyman

”I first met Phyllis Hyman at the Woolworth's down the block from Mikell's. She was a regular at Mikell's, and we became friends. I played with Phyllis in the 80's. I’m blessed that I shared the stage with her, and got to know her as a human being...being that her talent was otherworldly... She sang on my song, "Tiananmen Square", and it was pure emotion... the voice of the Gods...I love you forever, Phyliss!" - Philip Woo.
