TINA: Album (Sampler)

The Bitch Is Back (1981)

Tina Turner - The Bitch Is Back - Album

The Bitch Is Back is a German vinyl picture disc with selected tracks from the previously released album Rough from 1978 and Love Explosion from 1979. It is licensed from the Bulgarian record label Balkanton, which released also a regular vinyl record with the same tracklist in Bulgaria. Because neither Rough nor Love Explosion were released in most of the Eastern European countries, but Tina was on tour there with her Nice ’N' Rough concerts, the record companies released instead various sampler with the same tracks but different cover pictures in the early 80’s.

Producer: Bob Monaco (Rough) / Alec R. Costandinos (Love Explosion)
Release: 1981 - 1983
Label: Balkanton (Germany, Bulgaria) / Helicon (Poland) / Pepita (Hungary)
Format: Vinyl (Picture)
