ike turner - Sitio Web Conmemorativo En Línea

I am the publisher of Blues Revue  (www.bluesrevue.com) magazine; we had Ike on our cover earlier this year. We also publish BluesWax (www.blueswax.com) and featured an interview with Ike earlier this year.

 

I was also lucky enough to spend some time with Ike on the Blues Cruise when we were shooting the cover and working on the article. I found him to be engaging, humble, polite, and greatly knowledgable about music. He shared several stories with me even though he was obvious not comfortable on the ship (that's putting it politely as he was nearly green!).

 

But I was even more lucky to get to see him perform several times over that past couple of years. His performances were energetic, interesting, and current while staying true to his roots.

 

 

The staff of Blues Revue and BluesWax offer our condolences to Ike Turner's family, friends, and fans. And somewhere the band just got a whole lot better.

I'd like to express my heartfelt sympathy to the entire Turner family.  Ike, like any other human being has made poor choices in life but he is still a child of God and deserves to be forgiven.  I pray that you all gain strength from all the good memories you have of him.  May he rest in peace.

I had the pleasure of being on rehearsing with and being on stage with ike in St. Louis, back in 1992.  A very proud moment in my musical career.  My condolensces to ike Jr, and the rest of the family.

SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR LOSS.IKE WAS A VISIONARY AND HE LIKE ALL OF US HAD/DID SOME THINGS WE ARE NOT PROUD OF OR LOOK BACK AT AND REALIZE WERE NOT THE BEST CHOICES BUT HE TOO WAS HUMAN.MAY HE REST IN PEACE AND ASKED FORGIVENESS FOR HIS SINS!!

Condolonces to the Turner family. May God get you through this difficult time. R.I.P. Ike, you will not be forgotten!

I had the good luck to see Ike play twice in London over the past few years, at the legendary Ronnie Scott's club and at the It Came from Memphis show at the Barbican. He put on a hell of a show each time, and was obviously at his happiest when performing. His memory will live on.
