Straight From the Heart

Ann Peebles

Memphis soul. Sparse, dry, and deeply intimate arrangements that frame one of the most resilient voices in R&B history.

1971 · Hi Records

A resilient, late-night soulfulness that finds strength in vulnerability and grit in the quiet moments.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the bass line on 'Slipped, Tripped and Fell in Love' anchors the track with a gritty, unshakeable confidence.
The vulnerability in her voice during 'I Feel Like Breaking Up Somebody's Home' where the restraint feels more powerful than a scream.
The tight, dry drum fills that punctuate the space between her phrases on '99 Pounds'.
