Biography

Biography by Alex Henderson

Combining a Philadelphia soul sound with a strong appreciation of Marvin Gaye, Maze featuring Frankie Beverly was among the top R&B acts of the late '70s and '80s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, November 21, 2003

This review is from: Joy & Pain (Audio CD)
F.B. and Maze have many fantastic songs, but I believe this is their best cd/album. Every song is absolutely wonderful. The hits are cd's moniker and Southern Girl, but the first three cuts/tracks are treausures that I don't think received a lot of air play. A greatest hits compilation is good for an introduction to Maze, but this ablum is the one to have if you are a die hard fan like myself. Also, you haven't experienced a spiritual experience quite like seeing Maze live, so do yourself a favor and check them out if they come to a city near you.

Great cd, but to fully enjoy Frankie, you must buy the other cd that goes along with it. Really good listening for long drives!

5.0 out of 5 stars SOOO WORTH IT!!!!, September 25, 2003
This review is from: Joy & Pain (Audio CD)
Frankie Beverly's voice and Maze's overall sound is very hard to catagorize;is Frankie a soul or gospel singer?Does Maze
play funk or smooth soul?Well actually all of the above-without
horns and a big orchestra to muddle the bands tasteful musicianship and production.Nothing here will dissappoint but in
terms of pure Fleetwood mac-like popcraft go no further then
"Changing Times",for the funk go to "Southern Girl" and for pure
classic soulmanship,groovepower and inspiration go straight to
the tital cut.In other words;GO TO THIS!!!!
