Simply The Best (CD)

Few rock performers can work a stage and an audience as masterfully as Tina Turner has been doing since the 1960s. First achieving stardom alongside then-husband Ike Turner, R&B siren Tina left to pursue an even more successful solo career that also included movie roles. Such is her iconic status that she was the subject of a biographical film, 1993's WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT.

There's good news and (just a little) bad news about this Tina Turner greatest hits package. The good news is that what's here is across the board terrific stuff, from her stunning update of Ann Peebles simmering r&b classic "I Can't Stand the Rain," to the more rock oriented songs like "Better Be Good to Me" (the most convincing imperative in all of recorded music) and ""What's Love Got to Do With It". Best of all, the version of "River Deep-Mountain High" here is the original '60s track, re-mastered and re-equalized by genius producer Phil Spector himself. The bad news? The set came out in 1991, and thus misses out on "I Don't Wanna Fight" (from the Turner bio-pic WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT?) and her sensational mid-'90s remake of John Waite's "Missing You."
