The deep resonance of Memphis soul that will soak your soul
This is a masterpiece by Memphis-based soul singer Ann Peebles, with producer Willie Mitchell and the Hi Records house band behind the sound.
Featuring the unique acoustic space created by Willie Mitchell, the title track "I Can't Stand the Rain" leaves a strong impression with its rain-like electric piano riff and sticky rhythm section. Ann Peebles' vocals, both delicate and powerful, perfectly convey the emotional nuances of the song. Bluesy guitar and warm horns perfectly complement her voice.
