Tina Turner

Having sold over 200 million records during a career spanning over half a decade, there’s very little the inimitable Tina Turner hasn’t achieved. Having made her name while she helped redefine soul music with her former husband, Ike Turner, during the 60s, Tina embarked on a remarkable solo career during the 80s, winning numerous industry awards –including eight Grammys, beginning with the Record Of The Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance awards for her signature hit, What’s Love Got To Do With It? She can claim any number of firsts – not least becoming the first black female artist to grace the cover of the prestigious Rolling Stone magazine – and her versatile voice has stamped its authority on genres such as pop, rock and R&B, as well as soul. Indeed, the multi-platinum success of her key albums, including Private Dancer, Foreign Affair and Wildest Dreams, shows that when it comes to feisty female superstars, The Queen Of Rock’n’Roll is still simply the best.
