Tina Turner Tina Turns The Country On!/Acid Queen/Rough/Love ExplosionTina Turner
Like Sonny Rollins’ Way Out West before her, and Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter after her, Tina Turner’s 1974 foray into country, Tina Turns The Country On! , is a refreshing illustration of the breadth of her talents. Already successful with her then-husband in the Ike & Tina Turner Revue, Tina’s solo career began not with the rock-infused R&B that made them famous, but country crossover instead. On its 50th anniversary, the album is ripe for reconsideration, thanks to a reissue with a brand new half-speed master vinyl and first ever CD release. In addition, her next three solo albums –...
Father John Misty Mahashmashana
Is this the end for our plucky hero Josh Tillman? Since Father John Misty’s era-skewering classic Pure Comedy, Tillman has trampolined between stripped-back (God’s Favorite Customer) and lush orchestration (Chloë And The Next 20th Century), without quite nailing the landing either time. Both were good, often great, albums, but ones that seemed a little too in thrall to concept – concepts that Tillman didn’t explain to anybody as he has largely refrained from doing interviews for the past six years.

Suzi Quatro: “I didn’t know I was unusual!”
Hi Suzi! It’s 60 years since you joined The Pleasure Seekers as a teenager, and you’re back on tour again. Do you still get the same buzz? I feel like now, at 74, I’m at the peak of my performing capabilities. I’ve morphed into the rock’n’roll entertainer I always wanted to be. Since my Unzipped show in 2014 I kept the same format, so it’s two hours, some clips, some talking, some playing. And that was what I always dreamed of. It basically takes you through the journey of my life. You get all the hits, but you get...Recent Posts
