Rock pioneer Ike Turner Dies at 76.
Rock pioneer Ike Turner, whose duet musical hits with Tina Turner brought him fame, died in San Diego suburb yesterday. He was 76 years old. He was an early pioneer in the 50s rock scene and had his first hit, "Rocket 88" back in 1951 and was well known with his duets with Tina Turner, whom he met when she was still a teenager back in East St. Louis in the 50s. He will always be remembered. Rest in peace, Ike.
