The title track "Feel Good" was released as the lead single in April 1972. The Turners promoted the single on Soul Train that month. It reached No. 48 on the Cash Box R&B chart and No. 95 on Record World's Singles chart.[6][7] The second single "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window," was released in the Netherlands while Ike & Tina Turner were on tour in Europe. They performed the song on Rollin' on the River.
The album received positive reviews.[9]Gene Sculatti wrote for The Sacramento Bee that the "album is noteworthy in its showcasing of Tina's increasingly songwriting talents."[10]
Record World (July 8, 1972): "With the release of this album, Tina Turner is now fully confirmed as a first class writer. Ms. Dynamite has penned all tunes save for the Lennon-McCartney 'She Came In Through the Bathroom Window.' Title track should have done better as a single."[11]
The Turners have another top flight album here especially in the driving numbers, such as "If You Can Hully Gully (l Can Hully Gully Too)" and Lennon-McCartney's "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window." Nine of 10 tunes are Tina's own compositions. Other cuts by this always exciting act include "Bolic," "You Better Think of Something," "Black Coffee" and the title single.[2]
Reissues
