IKE: Album (Studio)

Without Love…I Have Nothing (1996)

Ike Turner - Without Love...I Have Nothing

Without Love…I Have Nothing was Ike's try to establish his solo career. He played almost all instruments and a majority of the vocals are done by him, except on the track „I Don't Know Why I Love You,“ which were performed by his wife Jeanette. Because Ike was not contracted to a record company, the album wasn’t available in record stores, but only through Juke Blues magazine under his own label, which was the reason it went largely unnoticed. You can read an interview about it here.
