Essential

Description

Hard to believe that more than 35 years have passed since Candy Dulfer rose to fame through her prestigious collaborations with Dave Stewart (the global hit "Lily Was Here") and of course, the legendary Prince, whose ironic recommendation ("When I want sax, I call Candy") in the video for "Partyman" revealed the young, glamorous, and talented saxophonist to the world.Candy had the opportunity to work, both in the studio and on stage, with the biggest names in music, including Van Morrison, Maceo Parker, Sheila E., Mavis Staples, Lionel Richie, Beyoncé, Pink Floyd, Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, and many others.Despite these prestigious collaborations, Candy has primarily focused on her solo career, forming her own band at the age of 13 and touring the world ever since. The compilation "The Essential" offers an overview of all the exceptional songs she has recorded, both solo and in collaboration with other musicians.
