Ike Turner Photos

We remember the great Ike Turner with this photo page. Ike was a crucial figure in the development of Blues as we know it. A great pianist, guitarist, bandleader, composer, arranger, talent scout, and record deal hustler; Ike had a part in launching the careers of numerous Blues artists including B.B. King, Howlin' Wolf, Little Milton, Billy "The Kid" Emerson, Elmore James, and of course, Tina Turner. Here is a photo page paying tribute to this icon of American music. |
