"Back in the early 60's I bought this LP of the Ike and Tina Turner revue recorded live in Fort Worth,Tx--it hit me like the James Brown at the Apollo-greatness.Soon after the whole revue came to England and I saw them tear up some ballrooms, and the infamous Royal Albert Hall show with the Stones.
This CD includes the original recordings from Fort Worth, plus the following nights show in Dallas. The sound is great, it is all wild,soulful,feel all right music--60's soul music is great--a period in time that I love and why wouldn't you all.
Tina went on to a well deserved and respected career,Ike has had his problems,but let us not forget the part he played in the early 50's, he was one of the pioneers of this great music that we still love and listen to today--its called great music."
