Ike and Tina.



I can't for the life of me recite a tune from any number of pop starlets these days. I wouldn't be able to recognize the vast majority of them either. On trivia night, I usually shoot blanks with the Lady Gaga questions.

I do remember my Dad introducing me to Ike and Tina Turner at a young age. The song Staggar Lee & Billy was my jam. A song about a good old bar fight over a lady. The lesson? Leave married women alone or get your ass whooped.

Born Anna Mae Bullock from Nutbush, Tennessee. Tina is one grown ass woman on the stage.

Eat your heart out Beyonce.

Please Please/Goodby So Long.
