Description
River Deep – Mountain High" was the first recording that Tina Turner did for Phil Spector’s Philles Record label. It was written by Phil Spector, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwhich. The track cost a then unheard-of $22,000 ($175,481 today), and required 21 session musicians. After several rehearsals, and two sessions for the musicians to lay down a backing track, Spector got Tina Turner into the studio on March 7, but she was unable to provide what he wanted. The following week she returned to the studio with Ike Turner. Due to Spector's perfectionism and tendency to abuse workers in the studio, he made her sing the song over and over for several hours until he felt he had the perfect vocal take for the song. She recalled, "I must have sung that 500,000 times. I was drenched with sweat. I had to take my shirt off and stand there in my bra to sing." It was reported that Brian Wilson attended the session, where he sat "transfixed" and "did not say a word". When Spector inducted Ike & Tina Turner into the Rock Hall in 1991, he revealed in his speech that he had invited Ike Turner to play guitar in the session for "River Deep – Mountain High," but Turner didn't show up.
