This awesome musician doesn't play bass, but don't hold that against her. I am talking about Candy Dulfer. I discovered this Dutch alto saxophonist on emusic, where I have found many great musicians that remain relatively unheard of in the USA. I have read articles about her that claimed she took over the reins as Queen of Funk from Tina Marie. I don't know about that, but her album, Funked Up!, is definitely one of my favorites. One thing I can say about Candy Dulfer, is that I own at least 6 or 7 of her CDs, and they are all very good. Her CD titled Dulfer and Dulfer, on which she plays with her father, who is also a accomplished saxophonist, is another of my favorites. I have been influenced by a lot of great musicians that don't play the bass and am always on the lookout for new ones. This is one of the reasons I really like Elmeaux's music reviews. I had never heard of Jason Raso before Elmeaux reviewed him. I listen to him regularly now. maybe there should be a specific forum here so we can all share the music we enjoy listening to with the TR family.
Anyway, if you have never listened to Candy Dulfer, here she is:
