Biografía

There was a time when the Ike and Tina Turner Revue was one of the hottest, most durable, and potentially most explosive of all R&B ensembles. Fronted by Tina, with one of the rawest, most sensual and impossibly dynamic voices in Black music, the Ike & Tina Revue was an ensemble that dripped musical discipline while manifesting nearly unbearable tension, eventually giving way to wave upon wave of catharsis. The Ike and Tina Turner Revue were rivaled only by James Brown and The Fabulous Flames in terms of musical spectacle. The Ike and Tina Turner Revue was one of the highest energy ensembles on the soul circuit in the late ???60s and early ???70s. Their first hit, ???A Fool in Love,??? was recorded in 1961 when another singer failed to show up for a session. After several early ???60s hit R&B singles, including ???It???s Gonna Work Out Fine??? in 1961, they became major stars in England.
