Hail, Hail, the Queen of Rock and Roll!
The singularly extraordinary Tina Turner died yesterday. She was 83 years old. Her life was far from easy. Her journey was nothing short of remarkable. Her voice resided at the much-sought-after yet rarely-arrived at point of intersection where power and sexiness meet.
It is a neighborhood to which few singers ever pay a visit. Tina Turner called it home.
(C) Peter Lindbergh
She sang the truth when she declared she had no need for another hero. She was the hero of her own life.
