Ike Turner, the legendary musician and former husband of Tina Turner, has died at 76, TMZ.com reports.
Turner died in his home outside San Diego, according to the report. No other details were immediately available.
Born and raised in Clarksdale, Miss., Turner was inspired by the old blues artists and embarked on a musical career of his own beginning in the late 1940s. He later met Anna Mae Bullock, aka Tina Turner, and they developed a hugely successful act together. She would also become his wife.
The couple's often tempestuous relationship was detailed in Tina Turner's biography, which was the basis for the movie What's Love Got to Do with It? The pair split in the 1970s.
Alongside his former wife, Turner was inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1991.
