I remember the first time I saw this. My parents called me and my little sister to the TV and told us to be quiet and watch. She is ELECTRIFYING! So much passion and energy. Such a rock and roller. No one performed like that and no one else ever will. RIP Tina Turner.
She wasn’t , she was used to performing in dirty Smokey nightclubs for 2 hours at a time 3 times a night . So performing on a venue like this was like heaven to her and the band
@@saintjay8058 Also add on that Ike put Tina and the band through 8 hour rehearsals five days a week when they weren't touring. They were READY when hitting the stage
RIP Beautiful Tina Turner! When even old stiff tight Ed Sullivan can get seriously excited into the groove and soul with this performance telling the audience "come on everyone stand up and give them a loud applause!" you know this is an epic moment in history. Wish CBS let Ed have the show continue two more years after they cancelled it in the Spring 1971. Ed wanted to show go 25 years before retiring it on June 23, 1973.
Easily the most underrated performance on Ed Sullivan, Tina and Ike and everyone's performance on here was so gritty and dirty that the whole audience should've showered afterwards...pure magic. RIP Tina, nobody like you before or since!!!
Ed Sullivan has my respect. He was, like Sam Philipps, Elvis Presley and very fiew others, a pioneer in promoting black music in the 50´s. And that was a damn dangerous thing back then.
One year before their version of "Proud Mary" became a phenomenon in 1971. This landmark appearance set things in motion as their performance of "Bold Soul Sister" helped that single into the Top 30 on the R&B chart and the success eventually got them signed to Liberty records, when things really began heating up for them. One of the greatest videos in the Sullivan archives.
Ike and Tina had been on the Rand B charts since the very early 60's with their single It's Gonna Work Out Fine. They opened for the Rolling Stones in the USA on the Stones 69 tour. That's where they made their real crossover and got them on Sullivan. I saw them in 67 and they were one of the hottest acts i've ever seen.
@@recordguy4321 - Never said they were not on the R&B chart prior to 1970. But I was focusing on the events of 1970 that began in January with this Ed Sullivan appearance and how the appearance resulted in their highest charting single in 8 years, which led to a contract with Liberty records, which led to massive mainstream success.
@@recordguy4321 I not getting involved or chosing sides on this at all. I was totally out in left field on his comment back to you. I read your comment before he commented back to you. I didn't get that vibe at all from what you said to him. I thought, you were just talking to him in general. Maybe I'm wrong... then so be it. I can only imagine what that concert was like. I wish we could hop on a time machine.. I 'd be on it! Thank you for sharing! Have a Wonderful Day! 💖
Fire. Band is hot. Tina and the Iketts are even hotter. You can tell Ed was a bit overwhelmed! Also, the videography of this is OUTSTANDING, especially for the time. This is a world-class production all-around.
Rest In Peace to the legendary Tina Turner. She was so beautiful. A lot of females in the music industry tried to emulate her style. But their’s only one Anna Mae Bullock aka Tina Turner. Her spirit will always live on throughout her music. Rest In Peace also to Ike Turner.
I definitely remember watching this performance on Ed's show in first-run as a kid. This was a well-remembered entry, and that's what I call a Performance!! Tina was just about the hardest-working lady in pop music. :)
This was the first time I saw Tina Turner. She blew my little girl mind away then, and ever after. So unlike all other female role models. She was fire! She was fierce! A force to be reckoned with, and nothing but raw talent from the top of her incredible vocal chords to the bottom of those never-ending legs! Rock on, Tina! 🌈💔
This is One Fantastic video! High Energy, Great Dancing, Awesome Use of Color, Excellent Singing From: The "Queen of Rock 'N Roll" 👑 Let's Do it Tina... Soul Sister! 💃 Happy Sunday... thank you for sharing! 💖
One of the greatest, a legend, the queen, simply the best... All this has been said about Tina, but I think we perhaps forgot the adjective that best defined her of all: a survivor. She was reborn several times from her own ashes, both artistically and personally, to accompany us for more than five decades and be part of the sentimental memory of several generations. When a figure of that caliber leaves us, something also dies inside each one... Fortunately, as always, all the incredible music remains, her voice, her dances, her long hair, her energy, her power, her long legs and all the icons that she created throughout his career, to keep her memory and continue to feel that she is still there. 🙏
I loved the Ed Sulivan Show as a kid. The show encompassed all genres of talent, and introduced us all to so much unending talent, and now these youtube videos take us down memory lane in such a good way.
¡Princesa hermosa! ¡Reina del Rock 'N Roll! ¡Una de las almas más hermosas en el mundo de la música... En el mundo en general... Punto! ¡Gracias por compartir! ¡Saludos desde México!
Every time I watch these, I think what an amazing performance but I always think about the horrendous torture she was going through during these times and it makes me feel a little sick. It's a strange feeling jou from a great performance coupled with deep sadness for this woman during this time for her.
I had to re-watch it a few times, but I am almost certain that at 3:58-ish, Tina, in a close-up shot, says, "Sock it to the b---tches". Tell me I'm wrong. If I'm not wrong, wow. That took some guts in 1970 on live national TV. Bold Soul Sister indeed.
When I watch and listen to someone like Tina Turner or Etta James then I watch the likes of Beyonce, you quickly realise that the Sixties was a very special time and unique time for Soul singers and that modern day singers lack that same aspect of "Soul" in their voice & performance. For instance...James Brown compared to Bruno Mars..or Marvin Gaye compared to John Legend..there is such a HUGE difference. I don't think we will ever get that back. It belongs to that era and can never be replicated.
I definitely understand what you're saying. A lot of people get offended when you compare the new artist with the talent of the artist back in the day. They fail to understand that authenticity cannot be duplicated.
I understand what you're saying and have felt this way for the better part of the last decade or so. There's a missing element with a lot of today's "soul" singers and it's the soul. I don't care if they're a powerhouse vocalist, much of the talented promoted by the machine today either are holding back or just don't have it.
By watching this video you'd never guess Tina was being physically abused by her husband Ike and it would take six more years of a terrible marriage before Tina had the courage to leave Ike and strike out on her own.
Elvis Presley was a big fan of her as well. They also had in common is that they did music that Phil Spector worked on. River Deep, Mountain High and You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Nicola Roberts in 2002 sang River Deep Mountain High and on November 30th won a spot in a New Girl Group that became superstars in The UK called Girls Aloud. Even they showed The influence she had on them when they did a Song called Miss You Bow Wow.
Still as fantastic as ever after all these years. Never quite understood how they did the live performance, however. It looks like Tina was actually singing, but the band was faking it, while playing to a recorded rhythm track. You can see Ike's guitar isn't even plugged in when he immediately comes over to Ed.
I heard that Tina Turner was abused but it wasn't until I saw her story on TV that made me feel so angry about Ike that I hope he burns in hell I have never seen such an abuser like him "I hope you burn in hell Ike Turner"
Ike looks so thin frail and harmless so it’s hard to believe he would put Tina through domestic abuse but he did and the funny thing is she’s the main musician as he didn’t do much put play an instrument. Perhaps he made the song and her job was to sing it? I don’t know much about them other than it’s been long since reported that he’d beat her and she put up with it for a while or that he died and so she was spared any more abuse. For whatever reason in her senior years Tina became a citizen of Holland or one of those countries so she’s done with the USA. I wonder why she did that?
Nice - Tina married Erwin Bach. He was European and they wanted to live in Switzerland. Erwin is the one of the producers that got Tina's solo career off the ground when she left Ike. When the pair first met, Bach was a label executive at the European branch of Turner’s record label, EMI. During his time in the business, he worked with acts such as Queen, Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd, and Radiohead as the managing director of EMI Recorded Music Switzerland.
She was a powerhouse in the 60s and 80s...R.I.P Tina Turner.
R.I.P. Tina - thanks for making our lives brighter and more soulful.
Ike & Tina produced a stellar live show that'll never be outdone 😤

She was strong. All that she was dealing with, she still got out there and performed hard! She didn't even look like she was sweating.
She wasn’t , she was used to performing in dirty Smokey nightclubs for 2 hours at a time 3 times a night . So performing on a venue like this was like heaven to her and the band
Yeah, well she was young ..You can withstand a ton when you're young...
@@saintjay8058 Also add on that Ike put Tina and the band through 8 hour rehearsals five days a week when they weren't touring. They were READY when hitting the stage
Wow! They were all so pretty, and Tina was JAMMIN
Tina and crew got some serious high octane energy going on!
Amen
This literally blew the CRTs in people's TV sets nationwide!

My wife saw this performance and was a Tina Turner fan the rest of her life. We'd see her in concert in 2008, and the show about her life in 2019.
Tina's legs will FOREVER be the BEST in the business! ❤️
Tina stunned the crowd because her and her band were fabulous.
It’s Ike’s band.
Rest in Heavenly Peace Tina Turner!! 🙏🏽🕊️💜💜💜

Audiences in that day thought that QUIET applause was RESPECTFUL.
@@pennysam3245Stage Directors probably didn’t want for the audience to be too rowdy until the end. They tell people when to applaud and when to stop.
They came in on level 10. True performers.
That part!🤜🏾
Ed Sullivan has my respect. He was, like Sam Philipps, Elvis Presley and very fiew others, a pioneer in promoting black music in the 50´s. And that was a damn dangerous thing back then.
Ike was a trip ! He wanted to be acknowledged so bad at the end!!!
Tina Turner just passed away
May the queen of rock rest easy.

So glad after all these years we can see this extraordinary piece of Rock N Roll history in it’s entirety.
And in such great colour
