The book was first released in November 2019 for Tina’s 80’s birthday as a 'limited deluxe edition‘, including a whole host of extras, such as a pull-out golden screen print by Charlie Gates, a serviette with a lipstick kiss mark from Tina and a piece of fabric from an original Armani dress that Tina Turner wore at one of her concerts. As an extraordinary final flourish, a very special bonus item is included: A limited edition gold ring which has been personally designed by Tina Turner and is an exact replica of one she has worn on her right thumb for many years. One year later, the book was also released as a 'bookstore edition‘ without the extras.
