"It's Gonna Work Out Fine" is a song made famous by Ike & Tina Turner in 1961 as a single issued on the Sue label. It was also included on their 1962 album Dynamite!. The record is noted for being their first Grammy nominated song and their second million-selling single after "A Fool in Love".
Composer credits, on the Ike and Tina Turner single, are given to Joe Seneca and James Lee, the pseudonym of Rose Marie McCoy. In 1966 the song was recorded again by Terry "Gibby" Haynes for Jetstar Records, and on this release the composers are listed as McCoy and Sylvia McKinney. McKinney was also known as Sylvia Robinson who was McCoy's regular song-writing partner, and half of the duo Mickey & Sylvia.[2] On the 2018 re-release of Dynamite!, Seneca was given sole song-writing credit.[3]

Tina's real-life marriage to Ike was an abusive nightmare, but on this early R&B gem, she paints one of the most enticing portraits of monogamy imaginable.
