They Document Our
Living History
Steve Warren, Bay Area Reporter, Sept. 8, 1988
I’ve seen International Sweethearts of Rhythm
three times now and its spin-off, Tiny and Ruby: Hell
Divin’ Women, twice. They get better each time.
If you haven’t seen them yet, you’ve got some
catching up to do. (...)
And that’s why Schiller and Weiss have followed up with
another half-hour documentary, Tiny and Ruby: Hell Divin’
Women. This time it’s mostly Tiny, at home with
her lover of 42 years, Renei Phelan, aka Ruby Lucas. Ruby,
who played piano, bass, and drums, was never a Sweetheart
(except to Tiny), but became part of Tiny’s post-Sweethearts
band, Tiny Davis and Her Hell-Divers. read
