KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - Tina Turner, known as the “Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” died Wednesday at the age of 83.
The legendary singer teamed with husband Ike Turner for a dynamic run of hit records and live shows in the 1960s and ‘70s and survived her horrifying marriage to triumph in middle age with the chart-topping “What’s Love Got to Do With It.”
Nearly 15 years ago, she launched her 50th-anniversary tour to a sold-out Sprint Center crowd, her first full concert in eight years.
The concert took place on Oct. 1, 2008, the first of what would be a 90-concert run in North America and Europe.
Below are some photos from the concert in Kansas City:
