"A song which essentially expresses one idea — 'hot for you, baby'—was a little monochromatic for her," said Rolling Stone magazine contributing editor Anthony DeCurtis. "The rest of the stuff that's on Private Dancer is much more nuanced."
The master tape was presumed lost but reportedly found just in time to be featured on the forthcoming 40th anniversary edition of “Private Dancer.” Due out March 21, the collection will be available in multiple formats and also include other never-before-released tracks, live performances and music videos.
Little Barrie, who plays in The The and Liam Gallagher’s solo band, has a new collaborative album with drummer Malcolm Catto (The Heliocentrics) on the way. It’s titled Electric War and will be out April 18 via Easy Eye Sound. First single “Zero Sun” has an early-’70s soul feel.
In celebration of one of Turner's most beloved albums, previously unreleased music is coming out of the vault.
Private Dancer was Turner's fifth solo album after leaving husband and musical partner Ike Turner in the late '70s. Her abuse during the marriage led to one of music's greatest comeback stories, as Turner remade her career and became one of the '80s' biggest acts.
