Tina Turner - Topic in New York Times

Tina Turner is a one-person summation of a huge chunk of rock-and-roll history. She is the female incarnation of an important strain of rock culture that embraces southern gospel-rock, Chuck Berry and the Rolling Stones. Miss Turner's raw, rending vocal delivery, in which the voice often seems to tear itself apart without ever actually disintegrating, also encompasses the red-hot mama, blues-meets-rock-and-roll tradition embodied by Janis Joplin. And in pure show business terms her provocative self-presentation - with heavily teased dark gold wig, prancing the stage in spiked high heels, and her friendly rock-and-roll sneer - have served as an inspiration for male rockers like Mick Jagger and Rod Stewart. In a very real sense, she did more to invent them than vice versa...

Music -Tina Turner The Legend Is Back

Tina Turner The Legend

I have been a fan of Tina Turner from being my childhood; it was songs such as ‘The Best’ and ‘Typical Male’ amongst many others that brought me to like her, plus the fact that my mum, dad and a lot of friends also liked her too. She has won eight Grammy Awards and you can appreciate why she deserves to be up there in the Legend Category; indeed no other person will ever replace her.
Tina Turner (born Anna Mae Bullock on November 26, 1939 in Nutbush, Tennessee) started her singing career when she met Ike Turner and she became well known for the ‘The Ike & Tina Turner Revue’ during the 1960s and 1970s. One of the biggest songs during that time was ‘A Fool In Love’.
Tina and Ike married in Mexico and they raised to stardom, being one the biggest couples at the time.
