Maze featuring Frankie Beverly's 25 Greatest Hits

From funky party rockers to silky smooth ballads.

"We Are One" - Whether it's about the human race or a quarreling couple, this uplifting 1983 hit from the album of the same name will bring tears to your eyes, striking a delicate balance between finger-snapping funk and pensive ballad.  (Photo: Courtesy Capitol Records)
"You" - Though its pulsing drum intro gives a subtle nod to the all-powerful disco sound of the time, this classic single from Maze's amazing debut album showed a band that wasn't interested in following trends, introducing their mash-up of doo-wop, jazz, soul and funk with polished expertise.    (Photo: Courtesy Facebook/Capitol Records)
"Workin' Together" - The off-kilter rhythm section and idealistic lyrics of "Workin' Together" shows hints of Sly Stone and the Isley Brothers at their gutbucket funkiest, and helped Maze's sophomore album, Golden Time of Day, hit gold.   (Photo: Redferns/GettyImages)
"Runnin' Away" - Live in New Orleans would already be one of the best live soul albums of all time, but this party-owning studio cut, along with "Before I Let Go," takes it to even higher levels of amazing-ness and helped Maze once again snag a gold plaque despite being ignored by pop radio.
