IKE & TINA TURNER : NUTBUSH CITY LIMITS |
|||
Label : United Artists Release Date : 1973 Length : 34:12 Review (Record Pusher) : Nutbush City Limits is filled with hard day-glo funk, overloaded with fuzz guitars, wah wahs, clavinets and horn sections, but at its core it is still gritty deep soul, thanks to a slow-burning cover of Dobie Gray's country-soul classic "Drift Away," the gospel-fied "That's My Purpose," a churning, funky reworking of "You Are My Sunshine" and, of course, the hard-driving title track, which mythologizes Tina's country upbringing. Review (AllMusic) : There is much more to this album than the incredible title track. Enough to out weight the occasional filler. Tina wrote 5 of the 10 songs and Ike arranged a burning hot funk band. |
