Explore

Tell Her I’m Not Home was originally released from Chuck Jackson in 1963 as „Tell Him I'm Not Home.“ Ike & Tina flipped it to be from a female perspective and released it as a non album track in 1965. After the success with River Deep - Mountain High, the single was also released in Europe. In England, it was included into the tracklist of the album Live! The Ike & Tina Turner Show. Tina promoted the single without Ike but together with Marvin Gaye at the TV-Show Shindig! and it was reviewed in CashBox magazine on February 13, 1965. In Germany, it was released again in 1975 with a different b-side, taken from the sampler Star Collection.
