It should be mentioned, too, that Ike’s piano opening lick on the million selling “Rocket 88” inspired a young Little Richard, who copied over and over again on his own hits. And struggling hillbilly Bill Haley got greasy with a cover of “Rocket 88” – fulfilling yet another criterion of “what is rock & roll.” Ike Turner was a key figure in music history before he even picked up a damn guitar!Mr Twanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17541273925419313350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226924615283203864.post-54534951847870528952008-12-09T01:16:00.000-05:002008-12-09T01:16:00.000-05:00Never knew too much bout Ike, figured I'd wiki him...Never knew too much bout Ike, figured I'd wiki him.

Tina, Ike and Mick are hanging backstage at Madison Square Garden 69 US tour). Ike is noodling on his Telecaster Thinline while the Ikettes get their makeup right in an adjoining "dressing room". Mick asks can he have a go on Ike's geetar and Ike and Tina pay no mind - their body language displays zero expectation for Mick's picking. After a minute Mick launches into a raunchy 12 bar which turns Ike and Tina's heads simultaneously - their surprise at Mick's skill on the frets is obvious although they quickly gather composure and do their best to conceal it. Ike sways his head in recognition but without breaking his icy stare - a hard man to be sure!
