In Memoriam…

Simpley the Rest in peace :pensive:

As soon as I heard she had died I came straight to this thread. Funny. Didn’t really expect the TP Forum to become the leading place to go to for both obscure balearica and the best obituaries. It’s a powerful combo.

And she invented HOUSE. Kind of.

My first exposure to Tina Turner was watching the fantastic Soul To Soul documentary - she was just an unstoppable force of nature in that show. Fucking phenomenal.

Ok, so this is one I’ve been coveting as I’m playing it in a DJ set tonight and didn’t want it spreading around the internet with the rest of the Tina Turner tracks, especially on some of the big Facebook groups. (In other words, it’s the digital equivalent of a “cover up”).

However, I’m more than happy to share it here. I haven’t seen anybody post it anywhere and it was only ever a promo. Suffice to say I’ve talked this up enough, but if you are playing a set anywhere this weekend, this could be the track that people will remember.

That’s sad to hear.

Got To Get Your Own is an all time favourite.

Thanks for the tunes Reuben.

I remember going up to Portobello Market as a teenager and hearing this coming out of a boombox, a bloke was selling rare groove tapes and playing along to it on a tambourine. Magic!
