Private Dancer is the comeback album that does not behave like a comeback album. It sounds too sharp for that. Tina Turner did not return politely here. She walked in with What's Love Got To Do With It, Better Be Good To Me and Private Dancer, then made the whole idea of being counted out look faintly ridiculous. The record still works because it is not only a victory lap. There is polish, certainly, but also pressure.

It matters because Private Dancer rebuilt Tina Turner's public story in real time, turning a comeback into one of the defining pop records of the decade.

2015 Parlophone / Rhino remastered LP edition with barcode 0825646120635. A clean shelf copy of the album that carries What's Love Got To Do With It, Better Be Good To Me and the title track.

Polished 1980s pop-rock and soul with big drums, clean studio edges, dramatic vocals, sharp hooks and a voice that cuts straight through the gloss.
