Billboard (June 14, 1969):
Currently enjoying a deserved revival on the charts, Ike and Tina Turner, pus the Ikettes and the Kings of Rhythm, team up for a live performance at Basin Street West. Tina Turner's dynamic soul style re-energizes "Everyday People," "Son of a Preacher Man," "Respect," and "Funky Street" as the revue features hit soul tunes and that in-person flavor.[1]
