Tina Turner live in Munich

Just stumbled upon this video on YouTube.

And now I'm dating myself - I was at that concert. It's almost 40 years ago. I'd just turned 18 and being in that crowd of about 100,000 people was absolutely mind boggling.

The other artists that day were Joe Cocker, Jon Farnham and Eurythmics. For the late 1980ies that's about as huge as it could get.

40 years ago this week, "Private Dancer" by #TinaTurner entered the #Top10 at 9. It peaked at 7 on 23 Mar 1985. This might be my favourite of her songs, contrasting the wistful lyrics and the funky melody. I just learned it was originally written and recorded by #DireStraits, but never released. They gave it to Tina Turner, and most of them participated in the new recording. Mark Knopfler was replaced by Jeff Beck. youtube.com/watch?v=d4QnalIHlV #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo

My favorite Tina Turner song is "What's Love Got To Do With It". I also love the title track. Lots of great memories of the radio days.

RIP Tina Turner
