Artist:Maze Featuring Frankie Beverly
Song:Too Many Games
Album:Anthology
Maze was a very popular R & B group in the 70s. Though Frankie Beverly was born in Philly he move to the Bay Area so he wasn't really part of the Philly sound. Beverly's idol Marvin Gaye heard him and got him a contract with Capitol. His roots in the church and doo wop always was in the forefront of his music and unlike a lot of black groups of that era, he never went disco. Interest renewed in Maze when in 1988 DJ Rob Base used their song as the basis of a popular rap song. Frankie was happy. He got plenty of royalties. The 2CD Anthology features all their hits.
