So sad, the passing of 83 year old Tina Turner. 200 million records sold, 12 Grammys, the Queen of Rock and Roll! I never met or saw Tina in concert, but I’d see Ike Turner at the Viper Room and he was a mean, drunk pile, drug addict who was verbally, physically, and sexually abusive to Tina for 16 years. Almost killed her several times! She was a great artist and human being, Ike was one of the worse humans who ever lived!
