This is just a lovely piece by Phil Perry. All of you Jazz buffs should appreciate something on this order, it is just beautiful, typical Phil Perry. This is the kind of music that made me a fan... For those of you who are not there as yet, this may be on a different level than you are on. And it may take a little more time for you to appreciate this... LOL! Eli G
I was a fan of his since his early 70s Montclair days,as lead.. even his lead in the Perry & Sanlin album. Plus his live summer boat ride dinner concerts in NYC.. His many collabs,and solo work as well..
Two of the greatest vocalists of all time are still alive and for the most part marginlized by the mainstream music Phil Perry and Angela Bofill. A real shame! Keep sanging baby, keep sanging!!!! Much love to you both!!!
Dearest Phil, please do more concerts...we need this awesome music. I could listen to YOU, Jeffrey Osborne, Will Downing and new kid on the block..."Kem"...now there's a concert! Make it happen guys! Peace.
"Woman" - lyrics transcribed (composed and produced by Don Grusin, lyrics by Tracy Mann, as sung live by Phil Perry, bassist Nathan East talks in the beginning) Woman Child in a cherry tree Playing the part Playing 'till dark The little heroine finds courage Facing the night with a firefly light Through a screen of loneliness Woman Waiting for the end of summer When September turns to Fall And all the leaves are gold Watching your future unfold Woman On your sleeve you wear the ribbon of sorrow In hopes that tomorrow brings all those Things that seem to pass you by And made you ask yourself why Keep asking why, why Babe Oh, Baby Safe in my memory Saved are the years And every tear, the silent picture haunts me, 'cause I See you and you're waving goodbye, bye, bye, bye Baby, From a taxi I, I view a love as it began, Here I stand Woman In the lonely days of winter As the wind cries out your name , I'm telling you, The flame of what we had still burns , and I don't understand Woman In my heart I tried so hard to forgive you , Baby For the promise you made then broke But no one hears my prayers The silence hangs in the air , Baby Woman Will the springtime ever find me With a smile upon my face , Oh The grace of time gone by Might heal the pain of goodbye Woman Did you ever love me deep as I loved you Oh, I know it must be true, Baby, that You were meant to be Part of my life's destiny Part of my dreams My Wo-man (Come here Baby and never leave me or I'm sure that I will die)
fantastic in every way, grusins backing is so spot on in every way, phils voices is magic and precise, love it sends shivers up my spine every time i hear this.
thank you for posting. i listen to this every day. Phil has blessed us with his beautiful God given voice. he may have been a great opera singer as well!. he has a huge fan base. love you phil.
GUAU... one of the better singer now a days, what a great voice... Phil Perry... really know how to sing and everyone can notice that he enjoys do it...sing...
Phil Perry with the nice group of Don Grusin... Better impossible... What more can I say? Phil Perry con el agradable grupo de Don Grusin… Mejor imposible… ¿Que más les puedo decir?
"HOW DID I NOT HEAR THIS ALREADY!!!!!!WOWWEEEEEE!!!!! 💗💌✝💞Not yet in attendance for Phil Perry's concert, however, until my collection is 'fulfilled', gratefully applaud the youtube publications!!!! Phenomenal Phil Perry!!! Virtuoso...sounds safe and constant in my memory, 'CALL ME', as are any one his passionately & purposely presentations!!!"
Hi Phil, do you know how much it means to me to see you well and performing heavens. You are one of those who has to have a happy and long life. Just a musician fan of yours, keep the good work up. You are needed.
I LOVE PHIL. I TOOK A PHOTO WITH HIM IN WASHINGTON D.C. ON U ST. N.W. @ BEN'S CHILI BOWL. YOU MUST HERE HIM WHISTLE!!! OMG I THINK HE IS PART BIRD IN IS THROAT!!! LAST YEAR HE WAS HOSPITALIZED! I PRAY HE IS WELL HOPE TO SEE HIM IN D.C. AGAIN!!!!! JANET IN D.C.
He is unique in one way... He has a similarity in his voice with Anastacia actually! In the higher register. I allways think those two great artists in a duo battle!! Awesome!!
Unique in ONLY one way..??? You must not be too familiar with his lead vocals on 98% of ALL of the Montclairs albums,from the early 70s.. Or,His lead on the PERRY & SANLIN album, His many collabs and solo work,and "live" boat ride concerts,yet you say hes unique in one way ONLY..?? 🤔🤔🤔
Phil wasn't happy they used this take because it was the worst but due to technical problems it is what it is. Can you imagine, two more that are BETTER than this??? OMG
im looking for an album by or called PERRY AND CHANDLER. cant find the music anywhere but i have requested it in the 80s but dont have a copy. it is tight. anyone?
I'm in my emotions on this March morning in 2024. This song Phils me up. ❤
I used to listen over and over!! Still hit the heart in 2024 ❤
Been loving this song for years. Phil sings to the soul❤

"Woman"
- lyrics transcribed
(composed and produced by Don Grusin,
lyrics by Tracy Mann, as sung live by Phil Perry,
bassist Nathan East talks in the beginning)
Woman
Child in a cherry tree
Playing the part
Playing 'till dark
The little heroine finds courage
Facing the night with a firefly light
Through a screen of loneliness
Woman
Waiting for the end of summer
When September turns to Fall
And all the leaves are gold
Watching your future unfold
Woman
On your sleeve you wear the ribbon of sorrow
In hopes that tomorrow brings all those
Things that seem to pass you by
And made you ask yourself why
Keep asking why, why Babe
Oh, Baby
Safe in my memory
Saved are the years
And every tear, the silent picture haunts me, 'cause I
See you and you're waving goodbye, bye, bye, bye Baby,
From a taxi I, I view a love as it began,
Here I stand
Woman
In the lonely days of winter
As the wind cries out your name
, I'm telling you,
The flame of what we had still burns
, and
I don't understand
Woman
In my heart I tried so hard to forgive you
, Baby
For the promise you made then broke
But no one hears my prayers
The silence hangs in the air
, Baby
Woman
Will the springtime ever find me
With a smile upon my face
, Oh
The grace of time gone by
Might heal the pain of goodbye
Woman
Did you ever love me deep as I loved you
Oh, I know it must be true, Baby, that
You were meant to be
Part of my life's destiny
Part of my dreams
My Wo-man
(Come here Baby and never leave me or I'm sure that I will die)
Thank you for ACCURATE lyrics.
