Ann Peebles’s emotional range is on full display here. Get seduced by that chugging slinkyness laid down by her band, and you might not immediately feel the turbulent rage coursing beneath “I Feel Like Breaking Up Somebody’s Home.” Like her famous Hi labelmate, Peebles is alsotired of being alone, but she won’t let a damned thing get between her and her man. But, on “Somebody’s On Your Case,” she delivers sage girlfriend-to-girlfriend advice. You can also hear the start of her decades-long re...
As legend has it, Peebles and Bryant were about to call it a night at the studio and go meet up with some friends for a concert, when they got caught in the rain. Peebles uttered that immortal line, and over the course of a rainy night, they wrote what would become her biggest hit. The final nudge towards greatness came when Mitchell added some electric timbale as a rhythmic hook. The uncanny song even made a fan out of John Lennon. The rain is mentioned once again on “Do I Need You,” and tha...
Sure, it’s pat to suggest a greatest hits set here, but considering the career-long frustrations between Peebles and the pop charts, chances are you haven’t heard—much less overheard—any of Peebles’s songs outside of “Rain.” That said, she placed 10 more R&B hits over the course of her career, handily compiled here. Read any reviews of her Hi Records albums, and the most common complaint is that most of her albums wrap up around the 26-minute mark. This handy compendium does the service of at...
Peebles’s second album finds her tinkering with her formula and on the verge of a breakthrough. It reworks four songs from her debut album, punching up the arrangements to better serve Peebles’s acutely strong and confident voice. Her songwriting partnership with Bryant wasn’t yet established, so the covers stand out, as when she takes a standard like the Isley Brothers’ “It’s Your Thing” and makes it feel wholly like, well, her thing.
A year on from the heights of “I Can’t Stand the Rain,” Peebles returned with Tellin’ It, bearing the same kind of rhythmic sophistication that underpinned Rain’s finest cuts. And if you perceive another plinky-plonk drum machine adding some heat to “Come to Mama,” your ears don’t deceive you. But Peebles and Mitchell don’t just recast “Rain” 10 different times—instead, they lean into the supple support laid down by the Hi Rhythm Section, who have plenty more uptempo grooves to offer. Peebles...
Ann Peebles wouldn’t be the first (or last) soul and R&B star to find themselves stranded by the flash flood of disco in the late ‘70s. But since she knew her way around a galloping groove, she fares well with the slicker uptempo rhythms on If This is Heaven, moving effortlessly amid the soaring strings on the title track. “A Good Day for Lovin’” also uses strings and wah-wah to especially funky effect. But Peebles’s songwriting purview also widens here. As a new mother, she explores the joys...
In 1977, Hi Records was sold and moved out West while the Hi Rhythm Section also disbanded. So when Peebles entered the studio with Mitchell to record her last album for the label, the fire was dying down. The backing band is supportive, but doesn’t quite have the telepathic spark that was behind Peebles’s finest work. The title track might read as prophetic, but Peebles herself would be the first to admit that seeking out stardom didn’t much appeal to her, and she seemed comfortable stepping...
