5.0 out of 5 stars This girl jams..., April 27, 2003

By	A. Ort "aorto" (Youngstown, Ohio) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I find it strange to be writing this review as my wife turned me on to Candy Dulfer. Usually I'm not a big fan of my wife's music (she likes Mariah Carey's type of bubblegum pop a bit too much for me) but over time this album and her Greatest Hits really grew on me. It really does jam and has some great bass lines to boot.

As for her jazz 'purity' (whatever that is) I don't really know. All I know is it's some good music. A bit funky, a bit fun and she can really wail on the saxophone.

Her Greatest Hits is also good and she pays tribute to Miles Davis and covers Average White Band's 'Pick Up The Pieces' to give you a sampling of what she plays. Good stuff.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good blend of jazz and dance beats, September 9, 1999

By A Customer

I can't stop playing this CD in my player. Candy has gone a long way from her days with Prince, and her individuality is all over this CD. What makes it striking is that it blends the elements of hip-hop and street music with sounds of upbeat jazz. "Give Me Some More" and "Gititon" are great examples of this blend, and many of the rest stay more on the jazzy side. Candy's vocals are great surprises to the tracks, and the songs are great to dance to. Sure, it's a record with more of a pop appeal, and it could be better. Nevertheless, it's a good CD for first-time jazz listeners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely sultry., December 14, 1998

By A Customer

Candy Dulfur is a pioneer in the "new" Jazz Revolution. This album, For The Love Of You is the best of the three albums. This LP shows the renewal of her commitedness to the jazz-hiphop musical style. Not only is she beautiful as ever, but her sax style has a finess all its own.
