RIP,
She was awesome, most amazing legs at age 78 and I'm sure at 83 as well.

Well I liked her tunes when they came on the radio, never bought any of them but she trailblazed her way to being one of the biggest female stars and that's quite the accomplishment coming from her era. Another elder of rock & roll moves on to jam with the others who are up there somewhere.

About 15 years ago we went to a rock and roll extravaganza at the Mayfield arena featuring imitator groups. One of them was a Tina look alike and during her performance came over to our table and wrapped her feather boa around me. I was thrilled until my wife told me the gal was a he. She likes retelling this story to our friends.

Loved her in Mad Max. Thinking back now, I don't think anyone else could have played that part.
Her duo with Eros was stellar also.

RIP Tina.

Wonderful entertainer, I was lucky enough to take in a couple of her concerts.
