Background

'Nuff Said was the third album released by Ike & Tina Turner in 1971; commercially their most successful year. The release of Workin' Together in December 1970 produced their hit single "Proud Mary" which helped propel the album to number 3 on the Billboard Soul LP chart. In February 1971, Capitol Records reissued their album Get It – Get It and re-titled it Her Man. . . His Woman. Their live album What You Hear Is What You Get was released in July and peaked at number 7 on the Billboard Soul LP chart.[4] Also, they were included in the soundtrack Soul To Soul which was released in September and peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Soul LP's chart.[5]

'Nuff Said was recorded at the Turner's own Bolic Sound studio in 1971. It features a two-part instrumental track as the title song. No singles were released from the album, but it charted at number 108 on the Billboard Top LP's and number 21 on the Soul LP's charts.

Critical reception

Billboard (November 13, 1971):

This husband and wife team has always provided one of the most exciting concert acts possible and it's about time they had a real album winner. This entry will do it. "I Love What You Do To Me" has the feel of "Proud Mary" with Ike's bass voice pouring heavy. Other standouts include "Sweet Flustrations," "Moving Into Hip Style-A Trip Child" and "What You Don't See." Watch it Go![6]
