Somebody Needs You is a very rare single with two previously unreleased songs. The title track is stylistically very unusual for Ike & Tina, because their song material was in the mid sixties harder and more R&B. A version with audience overdubs was also included into the tracklist of the album The Ike & Tina Turner Show (Vol. 2). Both songs have been reissued on the sampler The Warner Brothers Years in 1988.
