One of the highlights, the Martyn Ware and Greg Walsh produced Let’s Stay Together, failed to reach the top 20 in the US but we loved it in the UK and it kickstarted the Private Dancer campaign. Debby Miller, in a July 1984 Rolling Stone review, felt that the album was a powerful comeback, with Turner's voice "rasping but strong", and a range of songs that were all good in a "modern rock setting" that was "neither detached nor very fussy". The album remains the only Tina Turner studio album to have been re-issued in digitally remastered form.

As is often the way with these iconic albums, the singles just kept coming, with seven in total pulled from the record across all territories.
