Ann Peebles' long and successful career at Hi Records, eclipsed only by Al Green, saw her reaching the R&B charts many times during the '70s, and entering the Top 40 in 1973 when "I Can't Stand the Rain" became her brightest moment (and biggest hit). The Hi Singles A's & B's collects all of her singles material from that era, 1969 through 1981, including every one of her chart hits -- the most popular being "Part Time Love," "I Pity the Fool," "Breaking Up Somebody's Home," "I Can't Stand the Rain" -- plus far more material for those who want to dig a little deeper on Memphis' Queen of Soul. The two-disc set works chronologically through her career, presenting the original B-sides close to their flips, and since Peebles' long-players of the '70s weren't as consistent as Green's, The Hi Singles A's & B's is one of the best ways to survey her career. ~ John Bush

It's too bad the otherwise thorough liner notes don't admit to exactly what releases these 13 tracks first appeared upon, or give any songwriting credits. The title is accurate as far as it goes, though, in that these are early Preston sides from the ...

$11.09
Roots Manuva has never lacked for critical respect from his British public -- a MOBO award for his debut, a Mercury nomination (and heavily favored to win) for his second -- but if he ever wished to crash the charts from Brooklyn to Bengal, 2005 was the year to do it. The success of British rap in general, and grime or Dizzee Rascal in particular, appeared to grant him the perfect point of entry into the greater world of pop music. The concept was even more perfect considering that the bashment style pioneered by Roots and his alter ego, producer Lord Gosh, was a natural fit for any Dizzee fans unaware of his hard-hitting, dubwise, digitalic work (which must have been an influence on a few grime producers). Instead, Roots Manuva decided to pull way back and record an introverted, questioning, occasionally angry album, one that studiously avoids the monster productions that propelled Run Come Save Me into the canon of great hip-hop albums. Early on, he proclaims what a term like British rap means to him: "I'm just a U.K. black making U.K. tracks/I've got love for every one of those scenes/and them pigeonholes will have nothing to hold me." Fans who see him squandering all of the inertia created by British rap's quick ascent to worldwide respect won't be excited by what they hear, but a few tracks do stand out. "A Haunting" conjures up the ghosts of his West Indies and African roots with a spectral horn line and nyahbinghi rhythms underneath a near-spoken-word reading. And in the closest track to his patented bashment style, "Chin High" rides a brutal tech bassline and stuttering electro effects to support a rap about the absurdity of machismo. Overall, Roots Manuva may have a lot to say during the verses, but when his choruses consist of ...
