Even though she had not performed in public for many years, Tina remained one of the most iconic artists of the 20^th Century and will be remembered long after the majority of her peers (and indeed, today’s female singers) have passed into history.  Everybody likes some of Tina’s records, even if they don’t like all of them. Ace has been responsible for keeping some of the very best in print for decades, either through licensing or via its long term ownership of the Kent-Modern catalogue, on which some of Tina and ex-husband Ike’s very best singles of the mid-60s appeared.
