This was a surprise. Class act. Tough egg as well.

I would have thought she inspired a few people as well. Private dancer I think is class. RIP

Kevin_Stapleton

Not keen on her later stuff, although Private Dancer was alright, but as has been said, no-one would begrudge her success at that point. I remember my older brother getting the 12" of Let's Stay Together, looking at the leather and fishnets and thinking 'blimey'.
This my fave; Spector's wall of sound at it's very best and a vocal to match:

RIP Tina

I read somewhere that Mick Jagger got his moves from her. He asked her to teach him how to dance like a black girl in the 60s. She did and that formed the basis of his moves ever since. Maybe she pranked him a bit with all the hands on hips and finger pointing overdrive.

Anyway, as said, one hell of a voice on her. RIP Tina.

Misura

Flaneur I think there might be some poetic licence in there. 😁

Funny how in the video TT is 43/44 yrs of age, and seemingly 'old' and yet Beyonce is currently 41 yrs old.

Djpekingman

fuzzy He obviously didn't learn anything cos he still danced like a cunt.

Djpekingman A fundamental cunt can never not dance like a cunt. It's like the wind trying not to be windy.

fuzzy Can't remember if this has been posted on here yet.

Pip Schofield’s career.

Flaneur

Just Bowie being Bowie

"In 1983 David Bowie did something very special and significant for me," Turner said. "We were on the same label, but the decision had been taken not to re-sign me. David, however, had just had his contract renewed by Capitol, who wanted to take him out to dinner that night in New York to celebrate. 'I'm sorry,' he told them, 'but I'm going to the Ritz to see my favourite singer perform.' And that was me."It was only after Bowie's refusal that the record label "bigwig tagged along" to see Turner perform — and the rest was history. "Luckily it was a great show. Seeing it and the crowd's reaction turned 'round how Capitol [Records] viewed me," she continued."It was because of David that I got another deal, and everything else followed. I'll be ever thankful to him."

Mitaman

Reggie_Perrin one of the benefits of living abroad for 23 years is not having had to watch these over-rated twats on daytime tv.

Mitaman I've lived here for the last 23 years and have managed to avoid these twats by never watching daytime TV. Fucking brain-rot television. I honestly don't know how people do it. If I was forced to sit through it for a significant amount of time I would end up trying to top myself.

Astrud Gilberto

Placid

I still remember to this day the first time I heard her singing on Girl from Ipenema and thinking wtf is this!! As a 17 year old boy from 1970/80's Leeds Brazilian Bossa Nova Jazz was not on the Placid Seniors side board record player.

The girl that played to me was a gorgeous posh girl from some fancy school I didnt know the name of.

It felt like an exotic discvery in more ways than one. Certainly opened the door to Jazz and Brazilian music for me anyhow.

Rest in Peace Astrud Gilberto, you figured large in this persons life.

Djpekingman

Placid Always loved the Girl from Ipanema from the times listening to the fab top 40 way back in the 60s and 70. I finally got a brand new copy of the 'Essential' in the mid 90s (it was released in 84). Still love it today. RIP Astrud.
