Rough-voiced but powerful American singer, born November 26, 1939. After a very successful career alongside with her husband, Ike Turner, in the 60', she was eclipsed during the 70' : she separated from Ike who had been continuously beating her for years, and ended singing in small clubs for food. The legend says that seeing her in such a miserable situation, famous producer Rupert Hine decided to help her and relaunched her career in the 80'. With the Help of David Bowie and Mick Jagger, he helped her in reaching unprecedented heights in stadium-filling Soft Rock.
