Delilah's Power is the final studio album by Ike & Tina Turner, released in 1977. The album was released by United Artists Records a year after the Turners split up. The tracks are from some of their last recording sessions together. The album was reissued by BGO Records on the compilation CD Delilah's Power/Airwaves in 2011.[1]
The only single from the album, "Delila's Power" (an "h" was later added on Delila), was released in Europe in 1975. The song was written by Tina Turner and although it received positive reviews, critics noted the similarities between the track and its predecessor "Nutbush City Limits."
Reviewing the single, the Acton Gazette wrote: "The soulful couple do it again with another stomping hit designed to let Tina's amazing voice sparkle. Very similar to 'Nutbush City Limits,' their last big hit, but powerful enough to get away with it."[3]
Similarly, Blues & Soul wrote: "When it comes to rockin' excitement, Tina Turner has no peers and though this belter is perhaps too similar to 'Nutbush City Limits,' the upcoming British concert(s), could give sufficient support to carry this one home."[4]
