Love her.

Sorry, Birthday :-)

And what a fantastic performer, especially at her age!!
I bet their are many a younger woman would like scratch her eyes out with her looking so amazing!

I think money may have played a hand in that somehow lol.

Either way she is an amazing woman and I love her!!!

[RATTER15]

And my favourite of all time..... the one without Ike.

Ratter - 'The One Without Ike' is actually River Deep Mountain High.

Although credited to Ike and Tina, producer Phil Spector insisted that Ike leave the studio - he took no part in the recording at all.

Following Ike's departure, Tina lost any remaining inhibitions she may have had that were preventing her from digging deep enough into her psyche to deliver the killer performance both she and Spector craved.

Bearing in mind this was the '60's - discrimination was still alive and well, and she was a black woman in a studio full of predominantly white men, it is all the more amazing that Tina removed her blouse to give her the freedom she felt she needed, and belted out the definitive and recorded and released version in her bra and jeans.

Trish and I saw her at the N.E.C on the Private Dancer Tour back in March '85 the 23rd I think when she was joined on stage for 2 numbers by David Bowie.Trish and I still argue over which was the best that night or Eagles on the Hell Freezes over tour.

She is astounding.
Her energy is amazing and those legs !!!

Don't you just hate it when you hear the age of a celeb and are surprised by it cos they're still at 'that' age when you first discovered them.

Thanks trt, am glad I had volume turned up for her, thoroughly enjoyed it

AH, "Ratter - 'The One Without Ike' is actually River Deep Mountain High."

I was referring to this performance, as Ike was in the original but not this one.
