The More You Know: Things that didn't actually work out fine include Ike & Tina's marriage. When this song was released, they were touring as the Ike & Tina Turner Revue, even though he was still married to another woman. They married in 1962. He did a lot of coke and regularly beat the crap out of her. She left him a few times over the years, and they finally divorced in 1978. Ike was married a few more times after that, and he died of a cocaine overdose in 2007. Tina's spokesman issued this heartfelt statement:
Tina hasn’t had any contact with Ike in more than 30 years. No further comment will be made.
The part about the statement she released on Ike's death was awesome. Nice.
