Simply the Best
Tina Turner, the ’Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll’ noted for a multi-genre mastery that propelled her to massive pop hits in the 80s, is dead at 83. Her publicist Bernard Doherty announced she died at her home in Küsnacht, Switzerland.
Being a kid of the 80s, What’s Love Got To Do With It is the song that acquainted me with Tina Turner. I was aware of her but didn’t know anything other than “Proud Mary.” Her solo career was incredible.
Personally, I love the duet with David Bowie and the James Bond theme “GoldenEye.”
Rick Beato devoted a whole livestream to pay tribute to her.
I was never really a big fan outside the hits, but this live cover Vintage Trouble performed of “Baby Get It On” by Ike and Tina Turner is a rendition I can listen to over and over again.
