Workin’ Together was the first single from the same named album, promoted live at the TV-Show American Bandstand on January 16, 1971. The songtext is very unusual for Ike & Tina Turner, because it’s very politically and describes the problems in the world. Unfortunately, the message of the song is still very present - more than ever! In Mexico, an extended play single with four tracks was released. Both songs were written by Ike Turner, but the title song was credited to Eki Renrut, which is the backward spelling of Ike’s name. The single was reviewed in Billboard magazine in it’s issue from October 24, 1970.
