"At a time when REAL Soul Music appeared to be going into decline, Frankie Beverly and Maze released this wonderful CD which was very well received. By itself, the gorgeous "Can't Get Over You" justifies buying the CD but there are other great songs here as well. Frankie Beverly is most certainly one of the greatest Soul singers of our time--but he is also criminally underrated. A classic CD to enjoy time and again (nearly 20 years after its original release it still sounds great!)."

"Silky Soul is a must have for any Maze lover. The songs and the music is so true to the silky style of Maze/Featuring Frankie Beverly. Some of the most soulful and sweetest lyrics I've ever been exposed to."
Silky Soul...

"Saw "Can't Get Over You" on cable, ordered the CD the next day. That's how much the song moved me. Fine work from Mr. Beverly! Five stars!!"
Silky soul indeed

"Maze featuring Frankie Beverly is unique soulful jazzy music that is not going to win over many Brittany Spears fans but should please anyone who likes well arranged funky 80's soul.Their somewhat Miles Davis like horn player really sounds superb on this release.The song "Mandela" is my favourite track being a harmonious call to release the then imprisoned South African leader with Beverlys' voice sounding passionate and emotive next to a beautiful chorus of backup singers.Joy and Pain is for me their finest hour, however this C.D.contains some fine moments also in spite of other reviews disparaging their mid 80's output."
