This
CD is a bit of a journey in itself, there’s
sultry jazz, swing and of course, soulful blues.
At times this blues diva’s vocals were Tedeschi
like. The lyrics were well written and the backing
back was fantastic.
I
enjoyed this CD a lot, fifteen songs no less. For
me personally I loved the song “Ik Hou Van Je
(I Love You)” and can easily add that to one
of my all time favorites. This CD stands out and above
Candye’s prior releases, for her fans you’ll
LOVE it! For those who have not yet been exposed to
Candye I suppose if you like good music with great
female vocals then this would be a good choice.
Peace and Love
