Production

[edit | edit source]

The album was produced by Ron Levy.[5] It marked a reunion between Peebles and the Hi Rhythm Section; the Memphis Horns also played on the album.[6][7] About half the album's songs were cowritten by Peebles.[8] Peebles, working with her husband, Donald Bryant, wrote mostly in the studio, choosing to concentrate on positive topics.[9]

The Orlando Sentinel wrote that Levy "gives the album a bluesier feel than Peebles' old albums, and she shows plenty of blues feeling on Robert Ward's 'Fear No Evil' and Delbert McClinton's 'Read Me My Rights', a number floating on a wash of organ chords and embellished with horns and gospel-style piano."[14] Rolling Stone thought that "Peebles's small but steely voice has grown stronger, richer and more sinuous in the twenty-odd years since her last album."[15]

USA Today praised the "yearning reinterpretation of the Rolling Stones' 'Miss You' and [the] stark reprise of 'I Can't Stand the Rain'."[16] The Toronto Star called Peebles "like Tina Tuner without the raunch."[17] The Washington Post said that the songs "possess the same horn-driven sound that defined Memphis soul in the early '70s."[18]

AllMusic wrote: "Gritty, unpretentious and hard-hitting, this magnificent date throws pop and urban contemporary considerations to the wind and screams 'Memphis soul' in no uncertain terms."[10]
