Ike Turner: 1931-2007

R&B legend Ike Turner died earlier today in his home in San Diego, Calif., according to his booking agent, Austin-based Maximus Entertainment.

He was 76 years old.

Turner’s agent Robert Devine said the company recently booked on a European tour for Turner. “It’s a shock to all of us” Devine said.

Maximus is working with Turner’s management on a statement to be released later today.
