?Ann Peebles? climb up the career ladder was
rather more conventional than spectacular in the
tough, rough days of rhythm and blues. She was
first discovered when she appeared in Memphis
nightclubs, was given a break by the big-band
leader Gene 'Bowlegs' Miller, and landed her first
top hit with the celebrated song 'I Can?t Stand
The Rain'. Towards the end of the Seventies she
made a well-timed retreat just before the outbreak
of the highly commercialised disco wave, only to
return many years later with a revival of her old
songs.
Her album from 1972 has certainly not mellowed
with age. Her singing is sharp and soulful, and
comes right from the heart ('Slipped, Tripped And
Fell In Love'). The beat is powerful, throbbing,
young and fresh ('What You Laid On Me') or surging
and groovy ('How Strong Is A Woman?'). The
arrangements come across as sophisticated and well
balanced, yet do not baulk at harsh attacks from
the winds nor from the use of Hammond and Hohner
keyboards, which were so popular at that time.
Melody, singers and big band are airy and finely
interwoven ('Somebody?s On Your Case'), while a
fusion of soft swing and snappy acerbity ('I Pity
The Fool') rounds off this album which is filled
with pure emotion, heart and soul.
