The finest soul music, past and present. The Album of the Week is Inspiration by Maze (1979), which combined a Philadelphia soul sound with a strong appreciation of Marvin Gaye.
Trevor's Album Of The Week is Inspiration by Maze (1979).
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.
The distinctive Maze and its charismatic lead singer, founder, producer, and songwriter Beverly didn't have many pop hits, but they were extremely popular among soul and urban contemporary audiences and enjoyed at least six or seven gold albums. Inspiration lives up to its title and is generally regarded as Maze's best album.
The band still tour regularly and are booked throughout summer in the States.
