The record you have in your hands is the sound of dreams fulfilled, dashed, then fulfilled again.Candy McKenzie, a young singer from North West London, had endured a hard life befo re she flew to Jamaica in pursuit of a dream that she didn’t fully understand.Candy McKenzie was a young talent in need of an experienced producer. Who better than Lee Perry, who had created international hits for another raw female talent, Susan Cadogan, not to mention his brilliant work with Max Romeo, Junior Murvin and the Heptones? All the magic of Perry’s classics are here. Candy sadly passed away in 2003,and it might appear she was an unfulfilled talent, but she and Lee Perry left us this beautiful hidden gem of an album.
