5.0 out of 5 stars Candy At Her Funky Best..., January 24, 2005

This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)

There are two Candy Dulfer compilations--1996's "The Best Of..."released stateside, and this Japanese import. This is the more danceable compilation (Hence the "Candy Funky Mix" subtitle). It leads off with "Da Bump", which samples the rythym guitar from Kool and The Gang's "Celebration". For stateside readers, this isn't a known tune--she opens with this on the road in Europe, and it JUMPS. Of course, no compilation of Candy's best would be complete without "Lily Was Here"--in fact, I'm sure many fans wouldn't mind "Lily" being on EVERY CD CD. But this is a party CD, with the exception of the live performance of "I Can't Make You Love Me" and "Donja" from Saxuality. Five of the songs come from "Sax-A-Go-Go", which really isn't a great surprise ("2 Funky", the title track, "Bob's Jazz", "Jamming", and her cover of AWB's "Pick Up The Pieces"), since she really captured a lot of funky at that time (1993).
If you have the US/European "Best Of..." CD, I don't feel this one should be passed up. This is a CD by CD that can be played at a party, whereas the "regular" compilation is more a traditional Smooth Jazz CD--in short, one that should be played while cooking dinner with candlelights for someone special.
