It's simply about an artist who thought his rhythm chords gave the song a boat-like motion, reminiscent of a movie he saw about two racing riverboats. Artists often aren't sure what they've created until John Q. Within another year they were enjoying their first breakthrough hit, “I Want to Take You Higher,” followed up by their next, “Proud Mary,” a track which came about because they were a couple of songs short while recording their album and Tina had remembered hearing one of their backup singers auditioning for the group by performing CCR’s hit, some eight months earlier. I can't believe it's nearly Christmas already! She rolled on too much paint and it dripped from the ceiling. Additionally, the band members all attempted to sing the backround harmony parts the way Fogerty wanted — he was hearing them in his head sounding like something an old gospel group would do, or maybe a mellow black four-part harmony group, like the Ink Spots or the Mills Brothers — but Fogerty didn’t think they were doing it right and so he sang all the harmony parts himself, double-tracking his voice.
Realizing he wasn’t going to Vietnam, and he was free to live his life, he turned a cartwheel on his front lawn and suddenly had an idea for a new song, rushing inside to write down the first few lines: “Left a good job in the city, working for the man every night and day”. The cart will keep rolling on if you don't block the wheels. As the hours rolled on, I learned just how bored I could get without going to sleep. Proud Mary" - 3:09 "Walk on the Water" - 4:39 "Travelin' Band" - 2:09 "Poorboy Shuffle" - 2:17 "Feelin' Blue" - 5:14 "Green River" - 2:34 "Sailor's Lament" - 3:48 "Born to Move" - 5:45 The ball went flying off her foot and rolled on to the end of the field. Shmoop will make you a better lover...of quotes. No! Ike Turner knocked around Memphis and went back to Clarksdale, and eventually he ended up in St. Louis, playing with his band, the Kings of Rhythm, in venues and clubs and bars all around the city, between the years 1954-1957. By the time 17-year old Tina did her impromptu audition for Ike Turner, he was already a legendary figure in St. Louis. It's about rolling down the river of life, a metaphor for life's journey. And yet she’s upset now because Ike was talking to the telephone man the other day about cable lines, so he can hook up another remote camera from his office and watch what’s going on at home.” ~ Rolling Stone, October 14, 1971.
Meanwhile, rock periodicals and other pop culture magazines were starting to pay attention to the group. She moved to St. Louis, Missouri, at at sixteen, to live with her sister, and was mesmerized by Ike Turner the first time she saw his band, the Kings of Rhythm, playing a gig at the Club Manhattan, located at a club in East St. Louis, across the Mississippi River. 2. Onstage, Tina was a whirlwind, wearing sparkling short dresses and high heels, accompanied by the Ikettes in similar fashion, but never upstaging Tina (wearing shorter high heels than she did), shimmying in sequined mini-skirts and mini dresses, whipping and tossing their long hair around while dancing to the groove. The breakout song for the Ike & Tina Turner Revue on that particular tour was their cover version of “Come Together,” the Beatles tune written by John Lennon. It's a wood-fired boat. // ]]> This blistering “Beat Club” episode — which originally aired on German TV on February 21, 1971 — is really something special to see, featuring a spoken intro by Tina Turner who warns us that they’re going to start the song off “nice and easy… but there’s one thing… we never, ever do nothin’ nice and easy, we always do it nice and… rough.”. When he got to the chorus, he quickly wrote down the words as they were coming to him, “Rolling, rolling on the river,” and he already had a title, which he’d written down in his notebook previously, something he figured he’d use someday, and on this day in ’68, the opportunity had come for him to use the title “Proud Mary.” Here’s the full-length version of their “Beat Club” performance: Fogerty had written the song in the summer of 1968, in a small, barely furnished apartment in El Cerrito, California, where he lived with his wife and two young sons. In this usage, a noun or pronoun can be used between "roll" and "on.". I love this time of year—roll on Christmas! Yes proud Mary rolling on the River.
It's a coal-fired boat. One of the songs he wrote, “Rocket 88,” earned him just $40 for writing, producing and recording the track. Much like Mark Twain’s writings about traversing the difficult Mississippi River, “Proud Mary” had imagery that was about as purely American as you could get. The days just seem to roll on faster and faster lately. It's about the Proud Mary lard company. This line is like a floating picnic. //
It's about black consciousness. The images conjured up in the songwriting process continued as he worked on the song’s lyrics, Fogerty later saying they were inspired by his memories of seeing the John Ford film Steamboard Round the Bend and watching episodes of TV’s “Maverick,” a western starring James Garner as a cardsharp (it was actually Stu Cook who had mentioned something while the band were watching the TV show together, calling on the riverboat to ring its bell, which John remembered, jotting it down, and later adding it to the song’s lyrics). Never mind all that.
Towards the end of the decade, after years of struggling and Ike Turner releasing solo albums and the band constantly touring but producing no hits, things started to pick up for Ike and Tina. (For more about the “Beat Club” TV show, see this post).
Tina Turner was born Anna Mae Bullock on November 26, 1939, in Nutbush, an unincorporated area in Haywood County, Tennessee (sometimes the city given is Brownsville), and she would grow up in Knoxville, attending a Baptist church and singing gospel tunes in the choir, and singing a little opera in high school. 4. It's a wood-fired boat.
Artists often describe their creations as coming from someplace outside themselves—the Force is with them, and all that stuff. Ike Turner was impressed by both her powerful voice and the raw sex appeal she would become known for. It's about rolling down the river of life, a metaphor for life's journey.
“J-Men Forever”: Rock ‘n’ Roll battles Muzak in Proctor & Bergman’s Night Flight cult classic. They would sign with Liberty Records in January 1970, and released their first album, Come Together, in May, with Ike using advance money from the label to build his own recording studio. They would marry in 1958 — Annie Mae’s name now changed by Ike to Tina — and in another two years the now-named Ike & Tina Turner Revue would have their first hit with 1960’s “A Fool in Love,” a demo track Ike cut with Tina when the original singer didn’t show up for the recording session.
