There aren’t too many singers who have voices big enough to cover the late Tina Turner without embarrassing themselves, but Brittany Howard is one of them. On Sunday night, Howard took part in the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra’s tribute to Turner at St. Louis’ Jack C. Taylor Music Center. Turner famously came from Nutbush, Tennessee, but she got her start singing in St. Louis nightclubs. As part of that salute, Howard joined the orchestra to howl out Turner’s hit “The Best,” which is not actually titled “Simply The Best” even though that’s what everyone calls it.
