IKE & TINA: Song

A Fool In Love

is the very first Ike & Tina Turner single, which came out by accident, when the session singer Art Lassiter did not show up and Anna stepped in. Although Ike and Anna Mae were not yet married, Ike changed Annas name to Tina and released the single as an Ike & Tina Turner production. It was the duos first hit in the pop chart and was also included on their 1961 debut album The Soul of Ike & Tina Turner. Tina re-recorded the song thirty-three years later for the soundtrack album What's Love Got To Do With It and performed it live forty years later at her Twenty Four Seven Tour.
