RIP Tina. "You Better Be Good To Me" My favorite was her version of CCR’s “Proud Mary” a tiny 5`4 and yet they called her an Amazon! Fabulous tribute, Alexis

Saw her in st.lou twenty one years ago.She only stopped long enough to make a quick costume change and I mean she brought it.Dancing,singing,at 62 she had more energy than women half her age.Inspirational.Worth every penny and more.
