Watch Tina Turner’s entire 1997 Phoenix concert

The music world lost a legend Wednesday with the passing of Tina Turner. Born Anna Mae Bullock on November 26, 1939, Turner began her career with her eventual husband, Ike Turner, and for the past four decades enjoyed worldwide stardom as a solo artist.

Turner's many years of performing included a number of performances in Phoenix, one of which was a May 7, 1997, stop at what was then America West Arena (now Footprint Center). Cyndi Lauper was the opening act.

"Try finding another 57-year-old performer who can match her fire," we wrote in our review of the show. "She sizzled all the way through 'River Deep, Mountain High,' during which the multimedia-screen backdrop carried grainy video images of Turner performing back when no one asked 'Ike who?'"

A complete recording of that show exists on YouTube, which we've included here.
