Take A Rest

Last night I saw a piece of history, as well as the end of an era. Frankie Beverly and Maze made their first television appearance in over forty years, and it will probably be their last. Though Frankie was never a Eddie LeVert he could hold his own. He can't do that anymore. It would be a disservice to his fans to charge them $70 for a ticket to hear him butcher those old Maze tunes. Without Frankie Beverly singing lead vocals, there is no Maze. He did all the vocals on every song. He has been a mainstay, enjoying a long and  lucrative  career. I never heard anyone complain about a Maze show. But don't go to the well to often. Now it's time for him to take a rest.
