Annie Mae Bullock was always a fine singer, but her career began when she went on stage for a dare to sing with the rhythm'n'blues group, Ike Turner's Kings of Rhythm. She later married Ike, and together they had many hits, such as River Deep, Mountain High (1966) and Nutbush City Limits (1973).
After she divorced Ike in 1976, she struggled to develop a solo career and in 1983 she had a hit again with Let's Stay Together. Her new approach to records and live shows, blending her soulful vocals with rock guitars, resulted in What's Love Got to Do With It (1984) becoming ‘record of the year’ in the USA and establishing her as a major star of the 1980s.
