Tina Turner / Foreign Affair reissued as 4CD+DVD deluxe edition
Foreign Affair by Tina Turner

Tina Turner‘s 1989 album Foreign Affair will be reissued in July across a number of physical formats, including a 4CD+DVD deluxe edition.

The album produced many hit singles, particularly in Europe, with songs like ‘I Don’t Wanna Lose You’, ‘Steamy Windows’, the title track and of course ‘The Best’, which is very much a signature song for Tina these days.

The 4CD+DVD deluxe edition offers the remastered album on the first disc, a decent-looking selection of remixes and B-sides on CD 2 and then two further discs of Tina Turner live in Barcelona.

The Foreign Affair deluxe edition includes art cards, photos and a ‘commemorative passport’ (click image to enlarge)

The DVD features this same Barcelona live show as well as the videos for the album’s singles “restored to HD” (DVDs can’t natively display HD pictures so this is an unfortunate turn of phrase from the label, but they should still look good).

The deluxe edition comes with some ‘stuff’ including a “commemorative passport” with photos of Tina, an art card featuring photos from photographer Paul Cox and a booklet with new sleeve notes from Holly Knight; the songwriter of ‘The Best’, ‘Be Tender With Me Baby’, ‘You Can’t Stop Me Loving You’ and ‘Ask Me How I Feel’.

Foreign Affair was Tina’s third studio album after her return to prominence which started with Private Dancer in 1984. That album was reissued in 2015 (read the SDE review), so it’s a leisurely pace, with Rhino taking six years to follow up that reissue with another Tina Turner studio album. Of course we should mention that they’ve skipped 1986’s Break Every Rule which is pretty disappointing. Let’s hope they return to that album before 2027!

Foreign Affair is also available as a 2CD edition (the B-sides and remixes feature on the bonus disc) and a 2LP vinyl set (remastered album, no extras).

Foreign Affair will be reissued on 16 July 2021.
