Tina Turner released the album ‘Private Dancer’ in 1984

Released May 29, 1984. It was her fifth studio album. The album was promoted throughout 1985 in a 177-date worldwide tour entitled the Private Dancer Tour. With 1984’s What’s Love Got to Do With It?, Tina became the oldest female artist to have US number one hit. However, she reputedly found much of the accompanying Private Dancer album too wishy-washy: she’d wanted to cut a hard-rock record in the style of AC/DC.
