Real Gone Rocket

Besides being an excellent boogie pianist and guitarist supremo, Ike Turner shone as a top-notch composer, producer and talent scout. It's a fact that Ike was at the same professional level as some of the biggest names of the day, whom he worked with on a number of occasions.

This new 45s compilation shines light on this little-known aspect of his artistic career as the
genius-behind-the-curtains in several recordings by other artists.

Liner notes and discography/sessionography by Fred Rothwell.
