which is really not a lot.....worst live-act I've ever seen! Moon Safari and PS are good albums though.....

I almost went to that show (in Amsterdam I assume) a few years back. Some friends went and said it was bad. But I love their studio work. nod


heck, even that tour documentary about them was boring. maybe that's why they wound up packaging it free with their last album.

Maze said:



no doubt Maze would make one or two appearances in my personal Top 100 biggrin however I'm also well aware that Maze' audience and their impact and popularity are nowhere big enough to ever put them into such a list. the one above is obviously very much Rock biased and very well... white, like CinisterCee already noticed up above shrug

Several people have noted that. wink I'm a Maze fan and as much success as they found on the soul/R&B charts, they never crossed over to pop success. It's an oddity really. But as Val said, it's a Dutch list. I'm guessing Maze didn't make many waves in Dutcherland.

My first concert from them i've seen in The Netherlands was around 1987 .
It was in a venue called Vredenburg , located in the city Utrecht .
This was the tour after their Live In L.A. album and 2 years before that , they had scored well here with Back In Stride.
The place was absolutely PACKED and the audience dug their tunes deep .
They already had visited The Netherlands a few years before , and according to the review of OOR , a musicmag that was always enthousiastic about Maze , it was a sold out hit too .
After 1987 they've been here in about 4 or 5 times again .
One was in 1989 , in combination with Mother's Finest and Chaka Khan ... again a packed house ( i unfortunately missed that show )
3 others i've seen were in the early and late 90's , from which 2 at small but packed venues in Rotterdam and to my memory their last show at 1998 here in Amsterdam ( Paradiso ), featuring Frank McComb as guest-singer on Fender Rhoades .
I've seen quite some postings from Dutch Maze-fans , on the forum of the Dutch North Sea Jazz Festival , wondering when Frankie & Crew will finally perform over there .

Not so shure if it's because of a Dutch list that there are not much Funk or Soul-related albums in there .
The Netherlands was always one of Prince's favourite countries to perform .
And recently , Earth Wind & Fire did a short European Tour in only the UK and The Netherlands .

Even not being an hip-hop fann, there are some albums from that genre that should be there...

They always are (like everything else defined in the world), that's why I generally take shit like this with a grain of salt. This list is actually comical.

Another "whitewash" list. lol Why can't they just be honest and call it the "Best Rock/ white Albums" in Pop history, instead of throwing in the odd 4 albums by black artists so they can pretend it's an all inclusive list...
