Tina and Ike brought a show to America that was being compared to the spectacle of a James Brown performance, as the famed duo reached beyond legendary heights the downside soon reared its ugly head. As pressures on the couple mounted, the 70’s ended up in their divorce and a rebirth for Tina Turners’ career.
