Here is a hard to find track by Tina Turner who originally recorded Don't Turn Around. This song appeared as a B-Side to Tina's single Typical Male . Years later it was a smash hit for Ace Of Base . This song was written by one of our favorite writers Diane Warren along with Albert Hammond. [...]
From Tina Turner's hit single Break Every Rule here is the B-Side to the single Take Me To The River . This version of the song is most excellent! Included in this post is the Single Mix of Break Every Rule too! Happy Sunday! DOWNLOAD BELOW: Take Me To The River [...]
My post on James Brown's "Living In America" reminded me of a sorta-sketched-out theory I have about the evolution, and devolution, of recent years' musical landscape: There are few musical icons from the glory days of rock and pop who didn't make at least one indescribably awful career choice during the 1980s. (Some of the artists haven't even recovered yet.) Evidence for this theory after the jump, along with one striking exception who leads me to believe that the product of an idle mind forced to hear one too many Rod Stewart covers while waiting on [...]
Tina Turner reveló que lanzará un nuevo disco de sus mejores canciones el mes que viene en el cual se incluirá grabaciones en vivo y dos nuevas canciones. El disco se titulará Tina! , tendrá 18 canciones y será publicado el 30 de septiembre. Los dos nuevos temas del disco se llamarán "It Would Be A Crime" y "I'm Ready" y las canciones en vivo serán tomadas de recitales que dio la artista en Europa. Este es el tracklist: 'Steamy Windows' [...]
Later this week I'm leaving the wonderful oasis of Pittsburgh for Chicago and the non-stop rocking that is Lollapalooza. Because of other commitments in the days preceeded and following the concert I'll be away for nearly a week. Don't fret though, I'm working on a massive post to tide all you over and make the week without me as close as it can be to livable. Until then here is some unapologetic 80s pop music. Genesis Land Of Confusion (Extended Mix) Invisible Touch (Special Remix Version) [...]
I moonwalked across a 1988 Michael Jackson Pepsi commercial while searching for vids on Vitiligo and decided to post it along with some other sellouts from pop's past. Michael "time to learn a new dance" Jackson David Bowie & Tina Turner - I think we can guess who the top & bottom are in this relationship. Madonna - the most famous Brit since the Beatles CLICK HERE to check out more Pepsi pop. Gettin' his fix - Tabloid Junkie
Aside from Madonna, there might not have been a more popular female singer in the world in 1985 than Tina Turner. Returning from years of absence, Turner had released the album Private Dancer in early 1984 and, in addition to selling millions of copies, it had spawned five Top 40 singles, including three Top Ten hits - What's Love Got To Do With It , Better Be Good To Me , and the title track. In fact, at the time of the release of the movie Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome in the [...]
Okay, I won't be at home for the next few days, so this is probably my only post for this week. For that reason, I double the treats. So I've got not only 5, as per usual, but 10 covers, collected from various compilations. You know, cover compilations are always hit-and-miss, of course you're not entitled to like every cover they slap on the tracklist. Well, here are the good bits. There's something for everyone, so I hope these will tide you over until I come back. Sorry if I sound hasty, it's just that I haven't packed anything for [...]
Hannah from Modernaire rather kindly sent through this George Orwell essay which I rather like, especially the bit about the Toad (I assure you there is no such thing as a 'common' Toad, whatever George may think). Maybe we should all step away from these pernicious computer machines, and go and lark about, carefree in the [...]
Well, I'm off to drop Hailey off at day care this morning since Amy is on her way to New Jersey. We'll see how things go. Amy will be back Friday night so until then it is just me and my little girl hanging out, watching ESPN , and kickin' out the jamz. MP3 | Imagination Movers - I Want My Mommy MP3 | Panda Bear - Comfy In Nautica ( XXXC hange [...]
I didn't have a post planned for today, but I got called out on an error, and decided I needed to make it right. Regarding yesterday's post, reader Sarah pointed out that "Nutbush City Limits" is not a Bob Seger song, but a Tina Turner song. If you would have asked me at any other time, I might have known that, but I think I had BBQ and beer on the brain yesterday. Not surprisingly, "Nutbush City Limits" has its own Wiki entry : [...]
New Mastersounds - Nervous Tina Turner - Whole Lotta Love !!! - Must Be The Moon [Emperor Machine Mix]
You are tremendously influenced by the music you hear when you're really young, and this often means that you are cruelly brainwashed by the music your parents listen to. My Dad was very, very high cred - Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, The Band, The Holy Modal Rounders, The Boss, early Elton John, The McGarrigles and [...]

Breaking out the USB turntable and encoding some odds & ends - thought I'd share! • Boomtown Rats - "Drag Me Down (U.S. Version) : The Rats were the focus of this blog's second-ever entry , so head over there to read about their convulted history when it comes to their American releases. "Drag Me Down" was a single from their ill-fated final LP, In The Long Grass , which had several songs remixed for American sensibilities. This version has different lyrics, a completely different, very Springsteen-esque bridge, even a different [...]

I'm counting days til the 8th of november. That's when the album should, and hopefully will be, mixed and finished. Today we added the last instrumental parts, a wonderful arrangement for three saxophones written by Hanna for the song "will you call me when you're sober". Now hold it, I know what you're thinking; "hmmm...saxophones, you mean like early Sting or perhaps that funky sound of Tina Turner?" But I promise you, it's nothing like that at all. Actually the saxophone parts on this album has sort of become my favourite sound. You rarely hear it in popmusic [...]
