Tribute to Tina Turner, featuring Sheldon Zoldan

Tina Turner definitely earned her title as the "Queen of Rock and Roll." Longtime writer/editor Sheldon Zoldan wrote this tribute to Turner, who died on May 24 last year. This is one of 44 short yet illuminating episodes about significant figures in the music industry who passed away in 2023.Here, you can listen to "Nutbush City Limits" on YouTube. It's worth scrolling through the comments below the video. There are a lot of expressions of love and appreciation for Turner. The first photo in this episode's chapters is by an uncredited photographer who took the shot of Turner performing at Tulane Stadium, New Orleans, in October 1970. I found the photo on Wikimedia Commons. The other two images are covers of her books, available on Amazon.. Also in the chapters, you can go right to the tribute by skipping my intro; feel free to skip my closing remarks too. Both are there to provide context for those who haven't listened to the other tributes.Along with tributes, Sheldon writes Song of the Day, a music-related story sent daily to an email list of subscribers.
