Proof Positive.....










...that art has nothing to do with morality. Let's face it the last time Tina was talented she was voluntarily getting a regular doing from Ike (God rest his soul).

I read one comment in one of Ike's obits rubbishing "River Deep Mountain High". I was, frankly, offended.

River Deep Mountain High is awesome. It was one of the factors that pushed Brian Wilson towards writing Good Vibrations. It would seem that Ike had little to do with the song though. The contract with Phil Spector seems to have been that in return for the song being credited to Ike & Tina Turner, Ike would stay away from the studio altogether. Not sure what his contribution was, but the Wikipedia entry states that it was a Spector/Barry/Grenwich colaboration.

Clairwil - An apology for the needless sarcasm in my first comment. I've been trying to give it up of late..........

Happy Christmas anyway.........
