Editorial Reviews

Long before a solo recording career beckoned Ann Peebles supported the legendary Soul Stirrers on tour. The experience proved inspirational, the group featuring as it did the magical Sam Cooke. Later she would make a great Queen to Al Green's King at Hi Records where she recorded a series of great singles and 7 albums. Amongst that work was 'I Can't Stand The Rain', a record which John Lennon described as 'the greatest single ever'. You'll find it here with much more. he finest budget priced introduction to the Soul and Funk Queen of Hi Records available. Features the hits and 'I Can't Stand The Rain' and 'I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down' plus great versions of the Soul classic 'Make Me Yours' and the Funk hardy perennial 'It's Your Thing Sleevenotes by Paolo Hewitt. Compilation by Johnny Chandler. Music Club. 2006

John Lennon said Ann Peebles' brilliant "I Can't Stand The Rain" was one of the best songs ever recorded; but even it pales to the magnificence of "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down" and the sheer genius of "I Feel Like Breaking Up Somebody's Home", which is one of my five favorite songs of all time. This is a thoughtful and comprehensive collection of her best work.

The funk and soul on this cd is surpassed by no other female artist. I love her voice, her groove, its music you feel. No collection of funk or soul should be without it.
