| | Description: | Sometimes you have to separate the man from the music-seldom a wiser course of action than in the case of Ike Turner. No matter your feelings regarding the man himself, the recordings he made during the 1950s rocked with an unbridled vengeance, whether Ike was laying down supple boogie piano underpinnings or whammy bar-laden guitar magic. This collection largely concentrates on Turnerā??s pre-Tina years, when his band, The Kings of Rhythm, operated like a welloiled machine and Ike was the picture of polished professionalism. He and The Kings bounced from one label to the next (Chess, Modern, Federal, Cobra and Sue are all amply represented), spotlighting an array of extraordinary vocalists. Many of them are showcased on this set, beginning with Jackie Brenstonā??s immortal Rocket ā??88,ā? a 1951 R&B chart-topper and a genuine rock and roll landmark. Dennis Binder, Billy Gayles, Clayton Love, Tommy Hodge, and Jimmy Thomas all had big, booming voices when they fronted Ikeā??s combo - a must, since Turner was going insane behind them on his lethal axe. That was especially true on the bandā?? 1956 57 Federal sides; Iā??m Tore Up, Sad As A Man Can Be and Gonna Wait For My Chance are downright intimidating in their rollicking intensity. Several splendid instrumentals from The Kings of Rhythmā??s 1961 album ā??Danceā?? represent a last stand for the bandā??s initial phase, Tinaā??s ascension to stardom shifting Ikeā??s creative energies in another direction. This is truly some hellraising stuff! - BOOKLETIke Turner proved to be a challenging and polarizing character, considered moody, irascible and aggressive, even towards his partner. Despite all his contradictions, Ike Turner the musician is considered an influential figure in R'n'R, a talent scout, producer, pianist and pioneering guitar stylist. Bear Family Records gathers the very best early rockers and instrumentals by this brilliant musician on a CD in our Rocks series. | | | No. of tracks: |
