 THE 100 ESSENTIAL SONGS BY

TINA TURNER

Ike & Tina Turner in 1973

Born Anna Mae Bullock in Tennessee in 1939, she impressed Ike Turner when she sang at one of his gigs. He asked her to join his group The Kings Of Rhythm. In time, she adopted the stage name Tina Turner and married Ike.

After years in a stormy marriage, she decided to leave him. Tina rebuilt her career and enjoyed a revival as a soloist, beginning with her international hit “What’s Love Got To Do With It” and the album ‘Private Dancer’.
