Once Ike and Tina had a resurgence in the late 1960s, labels they were previously signed to released a multitude of old recordings. Her Man . . . His Woman is a reissue of Get It – Get It released by Capitol Records in 1971. The songs are remixed with strings, horns overdubs and in stereo. The album reached number 201 on Billboard's Bubbling Under the Top LP's.[7]
Critical reception
Billboard (February 20, 1971):
After years of paying dues and appealing to a concerned minority, Ike and Tina are finally beginning to break through. This album, which captures the dynamic duo in typical urgent style, lacks their soul treatment on contemporary progressions rockers, but is down home soul. Examine what Tina does with the blues/gospel warhorse, "My Baby."[8]

Reviewing the album in Christgau's Record Guide: Rock Albums of the Seventies, Robert Christgau wrote:
Elevated by the Rolling Stones into mythic status among white people, the Turners are now haunted by their profligate recording habits – Capitol is the tenth label to release an I&TT LP in the past two years. Granted, most and maybe all of them are better than this, a humdrum blues runthrough (with big-band horns and fake-symph strings) on which Ike claims authorship of such works as "Dust My Broom" (here yclept "I Believe") and "Ten Long Years" (here yclept "Five Long Years"). Apparently it was cut some years ago for Cenco (?) Records. The Turners are currently contracted to Liberty, have authorized product out on A&M and Blue Thumb, and caveat emptor.[1]
