Things really began to change for Turner in 1956, when he met a teenager named Anna Mae Bullock. The young singer joined the band, and Ike helped transform her into Tina Turner by changing her name. They were soon performing as the Ike & Tina Turner Revue, and Ike wrote their first major hit “A Fool In Love,” released 1960. Others followed, including “I Idolize You,” “Poor Fool,” and “It’s Going to Work Out Fine,” which earned them their first Grammy nomination.
Offstage, they developed a romantic relationship and had a son, Ronnie. Ike and Tina then married in 1962 in Tijuana, Mexico. Although Ronnie was their only son together, they shared three others-Ike Jr. and Michael from a previous relationship of Ike’s, as well as Craig from Tina’s previous relationship-by adoption.
Ike and Tina were invited to open for the Rolling Stones in the late 1960s, which introduced their bold style of soul-infused rock music to a new audience. They found crossover success with a cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary,” which made it on Billboard’s pop and R&B charts. This song also earned them their first and only Grammy Award together, in 1971, for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Group.
Their last hit together was “Nutbush City Limits,” written by Tina and released in 1973. One of their final albums together, The Gospel According To Ike and Tina earned them their final Grammy nod for Best Soul Gospel Performance.
Although they had been a successful stage act for years, Ike and Tina had a very different life behind the scenes. Ike had developed a cocaine addiction, and Tina finally left him in 1976 after enduring years of physical abuse and Ike’s infidelity. After 16 years of marriage, their divorce was finalized in 1978, with Ike retaining most of their assets.
