THE MANY FACES OF...
VA - The Many Faces of Tina Turner [2018] (3 x CDs)
One of the most dynamic female soul singers in the history of the music, Tina Turner oozed sexuality from every pore in a performing career that began the moment she stepped on-stage as lead singer of The Ike & Tina Turner Revue in the late '50s. Her gritty and growling performances beat down doors everywhere, looking back to the double-barreled attack of gospel fervor and sexual abandon that had originally formed soul back then. After almost fifty years in the music business, Tina Turner has become one of the most commercially successful international female rock stars to date. Her sultry, powerful voice, her time-tested beauty and her unforgettable story, all contribute to her legendary status. In The Many Faces of Tina Turner, we will explore a different side of her career that features her early work -along her then-husband Ike Turner-, her legendary duets, many of her collaborators and a tribute to her fantastic catalog. With fantastic artwork and remastered sound. (Amazon)

Thanks. Fascinating mixture.
ReplyDeleteHi lemonflag
DeleteThe Many Faces Of... series consistently provides fascinating perspectives on artists, and this Tina Turner collection is no exception.
Cheers.
I agree Lemonflag, I like this mixture. Real work behind this (Heaven 17's Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh revived her career just before 1984's Private Dancer). Thank you BB for the series.
DeleteYou're slaying me BB with this compilation. Ms.Turner was unadulterated dynamite! .Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure, Richard Bock.
DeleteEnjoy!
Cheers.
To be fair, the weird mixes of stuff on this series is to go around copyright restrictions, but I'm always interested to see how they work around those...and sometimes *there is* some cool stuff on these...
ReplyDeleteHi One Buck Guy.
DeleteWhat I like about this series is the innovative ways they navigate these limitations that makes these compilations unique. And you're right, there are definitely some gems that emerge from this approach. It’s always exciting to uncover the cool stuff hidden within.
Cheers.
