The Collected Recordings: Sixties to Nineties (Tina Turner)

Tina Turner's The Collected Recordings: Sixties to Nineties is a three-disc career overview released in 1994. The first disc selects tracks from the Ike & Tina Turner years. The second disc is of b-sides, rarities, and minor hits. The third disc collects some of her biggest solo hits. While the first and third discs are cool, better overviews of each are done by other sets, such as, respectively, The Ike & Tina Story and All the Best. The appeal here lies in the second disc, which includes such great tracks as Turner's original version of "Don't Turn Around," released as the b-side to "Typical Male," an awesome live version of Prince's "Let's Pretend We're Married," released as the b-side to "Show Some Respect," and a remake of Robert Palmer's "Johnny and Mary," contributed to the soundtrack to the film Summer Lovers. It is for these and other great recordings found on the second disc, as well as a pleasant booklet, that I would recommend this set.
