    1972 single by Ike & Tina Turner

    "Up In Heah" is a song written by Tina Turner and Leon Ware. It was released as a single by R&B duo Ike & Tina Turner on United Artists Records in 1972.

    Background and release

    After a period which Ike & Tina Turner recorded mostly cover songs, Tina Turner began honing her writing skills in the early 1970s with the establishment of the duo`s Bolic Sound recording studio. She wrote nine out of the ten songs on the 1972 album Feel Good.[2] "Up In Heah," penned by Tina Turner and Leon Ware, was recorded at Bolic Sound in December 1971. It was arranged by Ike Turner and produced by Gerhard Augustin.[3] The B-side, "Doo Wah Ditty (Got To Get Ta)," was written by Ike & Tina Turner`s road manager Rhonda Graam.

    The single was released as a non-album track in February 1972. It reached No. 83 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at No. 47 on the R&B chart.[4][5]

    "Up In Heah" was reissued on the compilation albums Proud Mary: The Best of Ike & Tina Turner (1991) and The Ike & Tina Turner Story: 1960–1975 (2007).

    Critical reception

    Cash Box (February 12, 1972): "Pair has the PA circuit constantly screaming for more, but have been looking for the super follow-up to `Proud Mary.` Here `tis: Top 40`s and r&b`s, get it while it`s sizzlin`."[6]

    Record World (February 12, 1972): "Tina herself wrote this song of sin and redemption and sings it with characteristic fervor. Dig Ike`s incredible bass vocal."[7]
