Stellar material that
Ike Turner produced in just a couple years for Modern Records – in many cases,
with Ike also given the songwriting credit – New Orleans & LA recordings from '63-'65!
Ike was one incredible vessel of pure musical talent and ingenuity – overshadowed badly by that red hot hell of a public and private life. That's a shame for a number of reasons, but the work speaks for itself. What's most incredible here, is that other voices speak for their own immense talent as well as
Ike's work behind the scenes. It's get great, rare material by
Ike &
Tina Revue & Kings Of Rhythm members and others. 27 tracks in all: "Darkest Hour", "I Smell Trouble", "Feel So Good" and more by Jimmy Thomas, "All In My Mind" by
Tina Turner, "In Love" by Jackie Brenston & The
Ikettes, "That's All Right" and "You're So Fine" by Vernon Guy, "Think" by Bobby John & The
Ikettes, "Walking Down The Aisle" by
Ike Turner & The
Ikettes and more.
