TMZ has confirmed that music legend and the former Mr. Anna Mae Bullock has died. He was 76.

Turner apparently died in his home in San Marcos, Calif., just outside of San Diego.

Sources close to the family tell TMZ he may have died in his sleep.

Having grown up on that Ike and Tina Turner movie, I can honestly say I'm pretty verklempt about this. Also, he was on the Stern show earlier this year and he seemed like a pretty cool guy. I mean, aside from the fact that he was known for beating the shit out of a woman. I don't condone that.
