Ike Turner RIP
2007-12-14 17:57:00 Según se acercan las Navidades, alguien se deja caer por esta sección.Esta vez le ha tocado a Ike Turner, uno de los mayores talentos (cantante, músico, compositor, productor...) de blues, soul, R'n'B, R'n'R y funk. Nació en Clarksdale, Mississippi, en 1931 y empezó su carrera musical a finales de los 40's. Se le conocía como the Father of Rock and Roll por haber grabado en 1951, junto al grupo The Kings of Rythm, lo que algunos expertos consideran el primer disco de rock'n'roll. Sus mayores éxitos los alcanzó junto a su mujer, Tina, con la que formó un dúo desde principios de los 60's. En 1976, Tina se cansó de los maltratos físicos y otros abusos a los que le sometía Ike y se divorciaron, rompiendo también en el terreno artísticos. Desde entonces, el pájaro este no levantó cabeza, no volvió a tener tanto éxito, estuvo en la cárcel unos años por líos de drogas y armas, pero siguió trabajando en la música hasta su muerte, por un enfisema, el pasado miércoles 12 de diciembre...
