Phyllis Hyman - Buddah Years

UK collection from the late R&B vocalist. Eighteen years after her passing in 1995, soulful songstress Phyllis Hyman remains one of most appreciated and loved singers of her time. SoulMusic Records pays tribute with this collection that focuses on her recordings for Buddah Records (1977-1978). Incorporating her self-titled 1977 LP debut, the Buddah Years also includes the dance-flavored "You're the One," a track left off the original album, and three songs - 'Soon Come Again,' 'Be Careful (How You Treat My Love)' and 'The Answer Is You' - recorded for Buddah, originally released on the 1978 non-US LP, Sing a Song and then included on her 1979 US Arista debut. With production by Jerry Peters, John Davis and the team of Larry Alexander (her then-husband) and Sandy Torano, the Phyllis Hyman album showcased the songbird's ability to fuse Pop, Soul and Jazz.
