5.0 out of 5 stars Tina's best and there's not doubt about it., December 4, 2002
"Foreign affair" is one of those albums that you just must have.
Tina Turner is a legend in music and everybody thinks that her 1984 hit album "Private dancer" it's her best because of the several Top 10 hits, the bunch of Grammy awards that it won and the almost 20 million copies it sold but "Foreing affair is more than that. Tina is at her very best (I'm not saying that she is not good anymore)I mean her look, she was still with her long hair, her voice, her lyrics and singing were stronger.
"Foreign affair" besides being and album full of strengh and fantastic lyrics and sounds was a very big hit. It sold almost 10 million copies, was nominated for several Grammy awards and has classic hits such as the #1 "The best", and the Top 16 singles "Steamy windows", "Be tender with me baby", "Foreign affair", "I don't wanna lose you" and "Look me in the heart".
This album was produced by Tina and hit singer/producer Tony Joe White who actually wrote some of the songs for the album.
Whether you're a Tina's fan or not you must have this one, really you won't be sorry at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars one of the best albums of the 20th century, November 13, 2001
By Jeremy (tokyo) - See all my reviews
This album is a climax in musical perfection. Only when listening to this album at full blast riding in a car can one truly apreciate this album. Tina Turner always said this album described the feeling you get on a very good day, "with the wind in your hair." Tina is right. This album is a masterpiece and an amazing journey that shall never be repeated.
