1975 - Whole lotta love 7 Inch Single
"Whole lotta love" is a single from Tina Turner's 1975 album Acid Queen and she is the "Acid Queen" in the movie "Tommy". Is is a cover version. It is originally from Led Zeppelin, from their album "Led Zeppelin 2".
Tina's version is more laid back, but as powerful as the original.
"Whole lotta love" is obviously about having sex. There have been many speculations about more hidden meanings, but I think the main meaning is that it is about having sex and giving the other all the love he has to give.
The B-side is "Rockin' And Rollin'".
"Rockin' And Rollin' is a nice, catchy uptempo number. About being obsessed with music and been driven by it.
