Ike and Tina Turner photographed by Tony Frank at the Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris in 1971. They were in Paris to perform at L’Olympia, where they recorded the Live in Paris album, and they appeared on a television show.

By 1971, Ike & Tina Turner had incorporated rock songs into their repertoire and mainly performed covers of recent hits. They performed songs by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, while still remaining true to their R&B and soul roots with covers like “Respect” by Otis Redding and “I Want To Take You Higher” by Sly and the Family Stone.
