In the early 1980s,\u00a0Tina Turner<\/a>\u00a0made a comeback that has been described as one of the greatest in music history, and the UAE played a part in that resurgence.<\/span><\/p>\n

The singer, who died on Wednesday at the age of 83, had already achieved mainstream success the decade before with her husband, Ike Turner. The couple, as Ike & Tina Turner, had sold millions of records, won a\u00a0Grammy<\/a>\u00a0in 1972, and had performed in landmark venues including the Royal Albert Hall.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But Ike\u2019s drug use increased and he became abusive. The band fell apart in 1976 and their marriage did too, with the couple finalising their divorce in 1978. Facing lawsuits for cancelled performances, Turner began touring again. But audience fervour had petered out and Turner became regarded as a nostalgic act.<\/span><\/p>\n

That is, until 1983.<\/span><\/p>\n

Turner\u2019s success in the 1980s needs little elaboration. It was during this time that she produced her most influential albums, including\u00a0Private Dancer, Break Every Rule\u00a0<\/i>and\u00a0Foreign Affair.\u00a0<\/i>She also won six Grammys in that decade.<\/span><\/p>\n

Just before her soaring comeback, Turner came to the UAE in 1983 to perform in a string of concerts in Dubai and Abu Dhabi that would mark the beginning of her rebirth as a solo artist.<\/span><\/p>\n

Journalist Lawrence Machado met the singer ahead of her concert at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in\u00a0Dubai<\/a>. Though he covered sport for a local newspaper, he says he leapt at the opportunity to meet Turner, having been an ardent fan of her work since he was a child in Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"elanka\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was so happy to meet her. We grew up to her music,\u201d Machado says. When I went to interview her, there was no internet at the time, but I knew about her and the trouble with her husband. She had a very hard life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

But Turner was focused on the future, looking forward to establishing herself in the industry. Dubai, Machado says, gave Turner the opportunity to leap back into the spotlight.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cShe was trying to come back into show business at the time. She had been out for some time after the problems with her husband. Dubai gave her the chance to ease back into the mainstream in terms of concerts. The Hyatt used to have all the shows in those days. Dubai was coming into its own at the time. A lot of big bands were coming through.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Machado said his interview with Turner was among his most memorable, and the Sri Lankan journalist, who has been living in Australia since 2003, has sat down with the likes of Pele and Muhammad Ali.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTina was a warm, down-to-earth person who had no airs and graces despite being a superstar,\u201d he says. \u201cShe answered all my questions. I asked her about her husband, about Ike & Tina Turner, the violence and everything. Of course, I can\u2019t remember word for word, but she was glad it was over. She was looking forward to going out on her own. It was after those concerts in the UAE that she really got that same fame again.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Machado says he was \u201cvery upset\u201d to hear about Turner\u2019s death. She may not have been a close friend, but that single encounter, as well as her music, left a lasting impression on Machado.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cShe was someone I always followed,\u201d Machado says. \u201cIt\u2019s quite sad. I\u2019ve been playing her music [since the news came out].\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
