Ike Turner is not the first guy you'd think likely to inspire a tribute album, and this one doesn't exactly have a cavalcade of stars lined up to pay respects. Instead, it's the work of a group of Nashville-based session musicians, Mr. Groove Band, who cover a dozen songs associated with Turner in his long career. That means highly competent, pretty faithful blues-rock-soul versions of "River Deep, Mountain High," "Nutbush City Limits," "Rocket 88," and some classics covered by Turner on record to good effect, like "Proud Mary" and "Come Together." One name is present via Bonnie Bramlett (an ex-Ikette before moving on to bigger things), who sings on "Proud Mary," while Ike's final wife, Audrey Turner, is heard on a few other tracks.
