Magazine

Powerhouse doesn’t even begin to describe Tina Turner as a vocalist, performer, style icon, and social force. But for all the laudatory words uttered about her during her remarkable 60-plus year career, survivor may be the most apt, and the most meaningful. In this special issue of Pop Icons, we look holistically at the remarkable life of Tina Turner from her childhood in Nutbush, Tennessee, to her well-earned retirement in Zurich, Switzerland. To inspire your playlist, we also examine her 10 key performances and offer a checklist of her must-have recordings.
