I Tina

Rhino's celebration of Tina Turner knows no limits. Just months after the career spanning compilation "The Queen Of Rock And Roll", the label will reissue another one of her classic albums in several deluxe formats: 1993's, "Tina : What's Love Got To Do With It".

The companion album to the biopic of the same name, the 4 CD and 1 DVD set will include the remastered original album, including 2 tracks left off US pressings, along with a bonus disc of remixes and rarities, including an unreleased single edit of Tina's cover of The Trammps' "Disco Inferno" and an unheard acapella vocal of her re-recording of "Proud Mary".

The last 2 CD's and DVD include "What's Love Live", a concert film recorded at San Bernardino, CA's Blockbuster Pavilion in 1993, but only released on VHS and laserdisc in Europe. 3 promo videos will round out the DVD content.

The box also features a 24 page booklet and poster. A cutdown 2 CD edition will be available, featuring the 1st 2 CD's of album and remix material, and a new vinyl pressing will be issued, as well.

Adapted from Turner's bestselling 1986 memoir "I, Tina, What's Love Got To Do With It" told the story of how the woman born Anna Mae Bullock found fame in the 60's and early 70's with husband Ike Turner, endured a torrent of violence at his hands, and managed to walk away and rebuild her career in the 80's. For their portrayals, Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne each received Academy Award nominations. Bassett won a Golden Globe for Best Actress In A Comedy or Musical. Though critics and both Turners took the movie to task for some narrative exaggerations, Tina, in particular, admitted to only seeing part of the film and disagreed with how she was portrayed as a victim, the film performed well at the box office.

Tina did participate in the making of the film, coaching Bassett on her high energy dance steps and contributing an album's worth of material to the film as a soundtrack of sorts. "What's Love Got To Do With It" split the difference between new recordings of rock and soul songs Tina frequently performed in concert ("Nutbush City Limits", "Proud Mary", "Disco Inferno", "Shake A Tail Feather") alongside a few new songs, the international Top 10 "I Don't Wanna Fight", co-written by British pop singer Lulu, the underrated ballad "Why Must We Wait Until Tonight?", written and produced by Bryan Adams and Mutt Lange, and "Stay Awhile", a new track from "What's Love Got To Do With It" songwriters Terry Britten and Graham Lyle. Their famous 1983/1984 comeback hit for Tina is the sole old track on the album.

All formats of the "What's Love Got To Do With It" reissue hit stores on April 26th, 2024.
