“I Want To Take You Higher”
The Ike & Tina Revue featuring the Ikettes. Ike was known to shift gears on a song on a whim and he does it here. Very little rocks as hard as this.

The Ikettes (Pat Powdrill, Paulette Parker, Ann Thomas, & Jean Brown) in 1968. 💗
Pat Powdrill was an Ikette from 1967 to 1970, she left the group after winning lots of money in the casino while performing in Las Vegas. Paulettee Parker was an Ikette from 1967 to 1968, she later sang lead in a group with her husband. Also was a backing vocalist for many artist like Bobby “Blue” Bland, Donna Summer, and Rufus. Also was a session singer alongside Steve Marriott, The Gap Band, Rita Coolidge, & BB King.
Ann Thomas was an Ikette from 1966 to 1968, she was only an ikette because of her looks. Ike & Tina thought she was very pretty but she couldn’t sing so she often lip synced her lyrics. She lived with Ike & Tina but left the Ikettes before getting pregnant by Ike and having their daughter Mia in 1969. She returned to work for them as their wardrobe manager, she later married Ike from 1981 to 1990. Jean Brown was an Ikette from 1967 to 1968, but returned from 1970 to 1972. After her tenure as an Ikette she retired from show business to devote her time to her family.

Tengo el LP "Over-Nite Sensation" (1973) de Frank Zappa y no sabía que cantaban en 5 de sus temas las Ikettes y Tina, "I'm the Slime", "Dirty Love", "Zomby Woof", "Dinah-Moe Humm" y "Montana". Tiene una explicación, el animal de bellota (maltratado maltratador) Ike, además de hacerles cobrar una miseria por las sesiones de grabación, prohibió que aparecieran en los créditos del disco. De modo que mires por donde mires la carátula y la hoja interior no verás una sola palabra sobre ellas. Esas sesiones dieron de sí para que aparecieran otros dos temas en el siguiente LP "Apostrophe" (1974). Abajo una muestra y aquí un resumen. Vía José Luis "Mac" Zanx!
