Tina Turner’s Grammy-winning comeback album Private Dancer will celebrate the 40th anniversary of its debut with a new box set, set for release on March 21. Turner died in 2023 at the age of 83.

Private Dancer was Turner’s fifth solo album, released in May 1984 after leaving husband and musical partner Ike Turner in the late ’70s.

Private Dancer went to No. 1 worldwide and won several Grammy Awards, and was followed by sold-out world tours and other hit albums over the next couple of decades.

The five CD and one Blu-ray box set will include B-sides, live tracks and previously unreleased songs from the era. In addition to the music included on the upcoming set, Private Dancer (40th Anniversary Edition) features a Blu-ray with 4K versions of the album’s videos for the hit singles “What’s Love Got to Do With It,” “Better Be Good to Me,” the title track  — all U.S. Top 10 hits. There are also discs of B-sides, single edits and extended versions of the singles, and previously unreleased tracks and non-album singles, such as Turner’s cover of the Temptations’ “Ball of Confusion” that helped launch her comeback.

In addition, an unreleased cuts from Private Dancer, titled “Hot for You Baby,” dropped alongside the announcement of the box set. You can listen to the song – HERE.
