    TWO POINTS: 1. Very few non-Buddhists know that Tina was a very highly spiritual practicing Buddhist, with a few videos of her singing Buddhist chants that can be found on UA-cam that can be used as an aide to Buddhist meditation. 2. Her second song in this video reminds me of something that still makes me smile when I recall it. And that is, after performing with Tina, Cher said it was like dancing with a hurricane.

    Tina could front a soul, R&B, or Rock & Roll band as well as anyone. She was absolutely the embodiment of those genres when she was performing. She was around 42 at the time of this appearance on The Tonight Show. This was no "hanging on as long as possible, living off of the past" performance. This was an artist still at the height of her power and about to skyrocket even higher. She had more Rock and Roll cred, charisma, and dynamism than most of the "kids" in the business in 1982. Its still fucking phenomenal all these decades later.

Not really a good match I think I guess you could say that Tina came closest to that with her multiple duets with Tom Jones in the 70's but Tom had a stronger voice than Elvis and was quite a bit more dynamic in the late 70's than was Elvis. Also Elvis wasnt known for duets or wishing to share the stage with anyone else. Tina was always willing to serve to song first whatever that meant her contribution would be

    Extremely hard to watch, to feel Tina, to understand that by 2023 she will leave us alone with her music her expression her warmth…my god to my gosh we have lost a girl that bounced back….beyond anything and everything…Your Simply The Best ..Better Than All The Rest doesn’t exactly place her being into prospective….I’m lost! I’m very humbled. Paul from Ottawa Ontario Canada..

    i MET Johnny at L.A.X. airport--around the time Bobby Kennedy was taken out. HANDS DOWN-he is/was the most honorable, kind, considerate man i ever met. I saw Tina in concert in Houston-don't recall when-but Oprah was dancing in the aisle--when Tina got away from her mate-Ike, and moved to europe, i was concerned-but she is just AMAZING when she cuts loose-thanks for the memories!!!

    I can't believe that, as a Tina fan, that I never listened to Rock and Roll Widow before. This instantly shot up to my top 5 Tina Turner songs.
    Fun fact: When she sang this on Carson, she hadn't even recorded it. It wouldn't appear on record until 1985's Private Dancer. Tina was still on her long hard climb back from the Ike years and the near-penniless years that followed. If I remember, she had either not been signed to a U.S recording contract at this point, or had just been signed, and she only got signed to Capitol after David Bowie (props to him) invited Captiol executives to come see one of Tina's concerts at that time, and they got to see the Tina experience up close.

      There was no "racist hold of the industry" at that time. Tina had already proven herself as a successful entertainer and there were a ton of black entertainers already signed with numerous record labels. I'm sure the executives in the industry felt that her career had already peaked and her popularity was waning. They just wanted to move on to signing newer artists. That's hardly "racist" thinking...

    It just occurred to me that all the best performers, those who had the natural instinct to work up an audience by sheer charisma, came out of the mid-to-late 1950s. Just show up and work it. No light shows. No pyrotechnics, no choreography, no constant costume changes-just let the music control every fiber of your being, collect that energy, and blow away the spectators.
