British Electric Foundation - “Ball of Confusion” feat. Tina Turner, 1982

...or, How a Couple of Noodly English Synth Boys Helped a Struggling Rock and Roll Powerhouse Come Back Better than Ever Before

British Electric Foundation (B.E.F.) was a band/production company formed by former Human League members Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh. In 1982 they crafted “Music Of Quality And Distinction (Volume One),” an album featuring a variety of vocalists, including some of their favorites from prior generations, covering classic songs from the 60s and 70s, backed with their own synth stylings.

They invited Tina Turner, struggling at the time to establish herself independent of ex-husband Ike, to cover The Temptations’ “Ball of Confusion.” The track became a hit in Norway and only Norway, oddly enough, but that was enough to get the attention of Capitol Records, who promptly signed her.

Ware and Marsh’s subsequent recording of Tina covering of Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” became a hit across the globe and was the starting point for Tina’s comeback album Private Dancer. The rest, as they say, is history.

"What's Love Got to Do with It" is a song written by #GrahamLyle and #TerryBritten, and recorded by #TinaTurner for her fifth studio album, #PrivateDancer (1984). #CapitolRecords released it as a #single from Private Dancer in May 1984 and it eventually became Turner's biggest-selling single. Although Turner had already scored a late-1983 #top30 hit with her rendition of #AlGreen's "#LetsStayTogether".

Ja tu sobie czekam na start #ParadaWolnosci, a tu taki news z #Myslowice:

"PR1VAT3 D4NC3R otwiera nowy rozdział śląskiej kultury klubowej, przenosząc ją w wymiar duchowy. To, co dotąd wydawało się niemożliwe, staje się prawdą - 13 września po raz pierwszy spotkamy się na rejwie w mającym 148 lat, neogotyckim kościele.
PR1VAT3 D4NC3R: 𝖕𝖗𝖔𝖏𝖊𝖈𝖙 𝖈𝖍𝖚𝖗𝖈𝖍
Poza występami czołówki polskiej muzyki 𝖙𝖊𝖈𝖍𝖓𝖔, przygotowaliśmy też mapping 3D, drugą scenę w ogrodzie, a także koncert organowy lokalnego artysty związanego z kościołem."

Playing now. It's great when you store unused stuff in the cupboard at the lake and still have the original stereo in your trailer. Cassette dated 1983 - plays nicely #tinaturner #privatedancer

Sempre s'aprèn algo nou: no sabia que #PrivateDancer de #TinaTunner era de #MarkKnopfler , una cançó que va havia de sortir a #LoveOverGold

R.I.P. Tina Turner 💔🥀

#tinaturner #acidqueen #Tommy #proudmary #PrivateDancer

The #Icon, the #Legend, the #QueenOfRockNRoll, Miss #TinaTurner has died at 83 after a long illness. Turner, of course, is known for her tumultuous partnership with #IkeTurner and their hit #ProudMary. After their split and a decade of near obscurity, Turner returned to the music scene in grand style with her hit album #PrivateDancer which spawned three Top Ten hits.

Tina Turner died😭

In 1987 her "Break every rule" concert in Munich was the first big show I saw.

First concert of the tour.

Second row in the arena. I could nearly touch the stage.

I'll never forget that experience.

Tras el final del calvario que fue la relación con Ike, promediando los años 70´, #TinaTurner emprendió un recorrdio en solitario que no obtuvo los resultados esperados. Los intentos por relanzar su carrera no funcionaban y apenas se mantenía a flote con sus viejas canciones. Todo eso cambiaría con #PrivateDancer el 29 de mayo de 1984. Al R&B que era su marca caracterizada le supo sumarle enormes dosis de pop rock suave con una enorme producción detrás.
