* Ike Turner & The Kings Of Rhythm: Down And Out (aka How Long Will It Last) (3.0 mb) | I’ll Weep No More (2.5 mb) | Tell Me Darling (2.0 mb) | You’ve Got To Lose (2.0 mb)
From King Cobra: The Chicago Sessions : Fuel 2000 Records

Before meeting Anna Mae Bullock (aka Tina Turner), before the totally amazing soul music of the Ike and Tina Revue and before the drug addiction, control issues and abusive relationships, Ike Turner was already making waves in East St. Louis as a rhythm and blues star. The Kings Of Rhythm concentrated more on the blues side of the equation, with Ike Turner playing a mean guitar and singing some decent vocals. These sessions were, as the title indicates, recorded in Chicago. Luckily, they were in Chicago at the same time that the lovely Betty Everett was, and were able to add her considerable vocal talents to the mix.
