Ike and Tina Turner -- Greatest Hits

  This record is a collection of early Ike and Tina hit numbers.  We all know Ike for being one of the corner stones of Rock 'n' Roll music, and a strong contender for possibly inventing it!  Each and every song is beyond great, Ike Turner's soul blues.  Now the funny part about the album, all the songs on this record are tunes sung by Tina about her love and longing for her man, but Ike wrote 'em all, like love letters to himself, even going as far as having a track called Letter From Tina but written by Ike, ha ha, we've all heard the stories of what kinda lover man Ike was.  I guess Tina was just A Fool In Love.
