    I’m so glad to hear that Frankie Beverly and Maze will finally get some recognition. They can still sell out a concert and haven’t recorded an album in almost three decades. Not too many artists can say that. I love seeing them in concert. I hope they get some good people to do Whitney’s and Donna’s tributes.
