Tina Turner's 1987 Concert History

Tina Turner (born Anna Mae Bullock, November 26, 1939 – May 24, 2023) was an 83-year-old soul and rock music icon who rose to fame in the '60s with then-husband Ike Turner. They performed as "Ike and Tina Turner" and produced hits like "Proud Mary" before their tumultuous marriage ended in 1978. Turner continued as a solo artist, producing hits like "Private Dancer", "Better Be Good to Me", "What's Love Got To Do With It,” and “We Don’t Need Another Hero (Thunderdome).” During her life, Turner won 12 Grammy awards, appeared in several films including “Tommy” (1975) and “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome” (1985), and inspired a 1993 biopic film about her life titled "What's Love Got To Do With It" as well as a Broadway musical called “Tina: The Tina Turner Musical” (2018). She was even immortalized as a Barbie doll in 2022. In 2013, she attained Swiss citizenship and lived in Switzerland until her passing on May 24, 2023, from a long illness.
