Ike & Tina's fifth album, It's Gonna Work Out Fine, came during an incredibly productive 1963, a year in which the burgeoning soul act released four albums in total. This period of their discography is marked by burning early R&B fused with the same fireball energy of the also quickly developing rock & roll culture. Things slow down only slightly with the soulful title track and the swanky "Why Should I," but the energy is on ten for most of the set. This album notably features Tina Turner's first ever lyrical composition in the form of would-be dance craze tune "Tinaroo." ~ Fred Thomas
