Produced by Willie Mitchell. On vinyl for the first time in over 30 years. Released in 1979, ‘The Handwriting Is On The Wall’ boasted some high-powered funk backdrops but for the most part the album finds Peebles taking on a set of straight-ahead soul numbers in which she was usually either taking a man away from some woman who didn’t know how to hold on to him, or was warning the ladies why they should stay away from her significant other. Peebles is a tower of defiant sass on ‘I Didn’t Take Your Man’ and ‘You’ve Got The Papers (I’ve Got The Man)’, she leaves no doubt about why she’s dating outside her age group on ‘Old Man With Young Ideas’ and ‘Bip Bam Thank You Mam’ alerts listeners to the consequences of not pleasing Ms. Peebles. Willie Mitchell pairs Peebles up with some fullbodied soul and funk arrangements for these songs and while unfortunately most of the great Hi Rhythm Section were unavailable for this record, the players on board do fine work. ‘The Handwriting Is On The Wall’ was Ann Peebles’ last album for Hi and the last new set she would release until 1988 but it captures one of the great R&B singers of the 1970s doing what she does best and here she bows out on a high point.
