1974 single by Ike & Tina Turner
"Sexy Ida" is a single released by R&B duo Ike & Tina Turner on United Artists Records in August 1974. It features two versions, the A-side "Sexy Ida (Part 1)" and the B-side "Sexy Ida (Part 2)."[1]
Overview
"Sexy Ida" was written by Tina Turner; produced by Ike Turner, Claude Williams, and Gerhard Augustin. It was recorded at the Turners` studio Bolic Sound in June 1974. Similar to their hit single "Nutbush City Limits," Part 1 is characterized by inventive guitar sounds, a substantial synthesizer solo, and a funky brass section. Part 2 is a faster tempo and features T. Rex guitarist Marc Bolan.[2]
"Sexy Ida (Part 1)" peaked at No. 51 in the UK, and was a hit in several other European countries. It is one of the duo`s final chart hits, reaching No. 29 on Billboard Hot Soul Singles and No. 65 on the Billboard Hot 100.[3] "Sexy Ida (Part 2)" peaked at No. 85 on the Hot 100 and No. 49 on the Soul Singles chart.[4] It also reached No. 67 on the Cash Box Top 100 Singles chart.[5]
Part 1 and 2 are included on the album Sweet Rhode Island Red in select European countries, including the Netherlands, Germany, and Italy.[6][7][8]
Critical reception
| Review scores | |
|---|---|
| Source | Rating |
| Blues & Soul | [9] |
Billboard selected "Sexy Ida (Part 2)" as one of their Top Singles Picks.[10]
Cash Box wrote of the B-side: "This powerhouse duo does it again!! An incredibly strong disk it could make it as a disco record. Ike and Tina can really sock it out and this record is where they really cut loose. Solidly based heavy beat is cut through with Tina`s outrageous vocal. Tight instrumentally and great vocally this record cannot miss the top."[11]
Blues & Soul (October 8, 1974): "Every now and then Ike and Tina burst through with a giant. Last time around, it was `Nutbush City Limits` and then followed a couple of duds. Now Tina shrieks her way through a bubbling disco item that is virtually assured of both pop and soul victory in this country."[9]
