There will NEVER BE ANOTHER FRANKIE BEVERLY....EVER!!! YOU ARE TRULY A LEGEND MR. FRANKIE BEVERLY. You will Always be loved by all of us! Frankie Beverly & Maze Music & Style are timeless and your music will live on throughout all young & old generations! We love you❤❤ Frankie Beverly & Maze
I’m a true Frankie Beverly fan. His show is a party. He can just walk back and forth. We’ll sing for him. He has worked so hard with wonderful music. I would still go see him anytime. God bless you Frankie Beverly. You have given me a better life with your music. 🙏🏾🤎✌🏾
I'm reading the comments that say his voice is gone, he needs to retire. I hear what everyone else hears but I'm a die hard fan that can overlook that. Shucks, the man has given us over 50 years of beautiful music, there's a lot of wear and tear on that voice. Frankie doesn't SING he SANGS. You're still going to party, it's still a feel good concert and his band is always tight, always has been. The memories I have of the concerts I've gone to make me smile, I had a ball everytime I saw him. He's not going to retire until he's ready, he does it for the people, he loves being on stage. Best believe when he retires, it will be because he's ready, it won't be because people say he needs to. I JUST WANNA THANK YOU FRANKIE BEVERLY AND MAZE♥️
He has given so much of himself, over the years, never disappointing his fans and now the time has come for us to give back to him.....understanding, appreciation, respect and love . For those of us who understand what it's like to get old, thank you for allowing him to have his final moments on stage and you are there to thank him for giving him what he needs at this particular stage of his life. In my Whitney Houston voice, I sing, "And I Will Always Love You!" #frankiesangel
My generation has had the privilege to experience the greatness of so many fields of work. The sacrifice can't be measured. Stripped down to the soul of nothing. But goodness & mercy kept following. There is a special mystic that followed 3-4 hundred years with no check stubs. Sun up to sun down g & m kept following. Many hoped to see better days. So many have given everything and knew they would get nothing in return. You got to know your assignment. If Frankie & Maze had been in it for trophies, plaques or other stuff, they prob would faded years ago. Frankie and Maze have an assignment. G&M follows them. Nobody can claim to be committed to their fans. No new material and can still sell out arenas. G&M follows them. Frankie can still slay today. What an example of goodness & mercy. Summer breaks, family reunions,vacations,first love, on & on FB/M have been the soundtrack of the greatest times of my life. Forever Frankie Beverley & Maze. Sounds so weird to hear retiring when his name is mentioned. Thank you Frankie. So glad you're still here to kick it with us. 👑✊🏾 Silky soul singer
This is one performance that has pained my heart. And yet Frankie had still managed to touch my being. It was brutal. Honest as honesty can be. We love and respect you,Mr Frankie Beverly
We walked him out, without all the bells and whislesles. WE didn't let him get carried out, we just 😮walked him out... Salute to that 54 years of making us dance...
It’s very kind of Frankie to have a soft of farewell concert. EVERYONE IS UP ⬆️ STANDING TALL IN UNISON. We love you Frankie, your fans are faithful and true.👏🏽✅ L.M., Writer ✍️
Frankie is such a legend and he should have been honored with a many Grammys a long time ago but I know for sure his music will never stop being played on my juke box🥰 much love to you FB
You have to have been following Frankie for years to appreciate this performance! We have been singing his songs for him at least for past 12 yrs IJS! Give the man some grace! Thank you for sharing! 🥂
I grew up on this Legendary singer!! He will always be one of the best to bless us with his talents. I only wish people would understand that you can’t be great forever!! Much love and respect for him as well as everything he’s contributed to the music industry!! 👍🏽❤️🙏🏽
Who ever is producing these concerts needs to seriously consider adding background singers to add vocal support to Frankie. His legacy is too big to go out like this. The band plays the music and harmonize while the background singers sing.
I have been to many concerts, but I must admit seeing Frankie Beverly and Maze live was one of the best concerts I have ever witnessed. One of the few bands that sound better "live" than their recordings.
Don't be sad, folks. Frankie has been sounding like this for over 10 years. Not everyone can keep their voice healthy until the grave. His show is about the music and the experience. Still a legend! And I hope he keeps performing as long as he loves it. ❤️
It’s obvious he is dealing with a medical condition. He is not the only singer to continue performing, even though his voice is gone. Some do it out of a sense of obligation to help their band mates earn a living. I saw them many times in the eighties and they were Terrific each and every time. HOF!
Your statement is so true. Eddie Kendricks did the same thing. The people just wanted to see him. They didn’t care if his voice was gone. Love you Frankie Beverly.
I love me some Frankie Beverly songs. It was good to see him in concert and may God continue to keep him and bless him. Love you, Frankie Beverly and me.❤❤❤❤❤
Much respect to Frankie Beverly and Maze. Been more than a fan since the 80s. Admire all you for all the love and joy you share with us. Take a bow Mr. Beverly you earned it. #OneLove WeAreOne 🙏🏽🤎👊🏽
WHY HASN'T SOMEONE GIVEN FRANKIE A TRIBUTE LIKE THEY HAVE DONE FOR OTHER SINGERS LIKE ARETHA, SMOKEY, AND OTHERS !! LORD KNOWS HE DESERVES IT!!!!! Make sure I get a front row seat!!!
Listen it takes a lot of energy and time and effort to be Frankie at the wonderful age of 77 years old! You know what that tells me about him he loves us and he loves what’s he’s doing! So you go Frankie Beverly!! He not letting anything stop him from doing what he loves!! Keep singing your on stage and we will keep singing your music with you!! Love his courage!!! Thank you for your story telling in your music and your music is legendary! Happy retirement to you!!!

I am blessed to have saw Frankie Beverly and Maze over 20 times and I will love this group for the rest of my life. I thank them for the great music and memories. Frank is giving us the best he has, the love of his fans. Their music will live on at the family reunion, picnics and our home music sessions ❤ One ☝🏽 Love ❤️
The one and only frankie beverly and maze. your music thru out the years was like a musical bible. That know matter where we found ourselves in life, your music would got back in stride again. Those songs have meaning, truth, love, unity, respect, vision, direction, that let's us that tomorrow be golden. So frankie beverly thank you job well done.
A job well done Mr Beverly, you’ve brought a lotta joy and good to our lives that has enjoyed your music and live performances. Man you’re the best when it comes to live performances. Wish you all but nothing but the best. ❤
His appearance reminds me how I have aged myself since I first saw and had the pleasure of meeting him in person with his band in Germany in the mid-eighties. He was so generous to give me a back-stage pass for two concerts in Frankfurt and Würzburg. Maze and Franky will always remain in my heart just like Maurice and Earth, Wind & Fire. Good spirited music with a message and a unique groove.
love Frankie. He's on his wy out. He would do better by having a lead singer do most of the songs nd he can come in and do one or two with them. He can still be the head but let another sing your songs and you just MC THE SHOW AND SING AT TIMES. yOUR MUSIC IS GREATNESS ALL BY ITSELF NOW. tHE CROWDS WILL SING FOR YOU. Thanks for still singing and bringing so much joy. We are not mad if you take your rest. It's needed for all of us especially when it's a golden kind of day sir.

Never a dull concert over the years, glad to have seen him in the 80's with Teena Marie. The greatest album and concert was Live In New Orleans hands down, I don't know how many times I bought that cd over the last 25 years after loosing, scratching or just wearing it out. Thank you so much Frankie "Howard" Beverly to the silky sound of hope!!!!!!
I watched this concert had to fight back tears love Frankie Beverly it took so much strength to give that show my love and admiration to Him and his band never to be forgotten
That's how I felt. When I was watching the ojays. And saw Eddie. Love me some Eddie. Tears start coming in my eyes. I'm gonna miss all them. That are retiring.

My family and I attended the Mother's Day farewell concert. Frankie Beverly is AMAZING. 77 yrs old, a true professional, a beautiful person. We had an awesome time. Thank you so much for the many years of showering us with love through your music. I recall seeing Maze featuring Frankie Beverly @ the strand over 20 yrs ago. I had the pleasure of a brief meeting with him as we left. He was so kind.. ❤ Thank you, Frankie Beverly & Maze.
I was there and really enjoyed myself no body else better than Frankie Beverly and Maze loves there music ,gonna miss him but have most of his album ❤😂😊🎉

Frankie can perform forever and the reason I say this is because at a Frankie Beverly and maze concert he doesn't have to sing because the crowd sings for him all he has to do is point the mic to the crowd.
Im actually sitting here crying its amazing bc I was every bit of7 or8 when I1st heard Frankie Beverly from my Parents and Aunties 😔Im now58🤸🤸🤸Much Respect Frankie Beverly And Maze I didn't make the concert when you came to Houston In April But God Bless You We Are 1
Love me some Frankie Beverly and Maze. I wish I could have seen him earlier in life. You will always have a special place in my heart for your music. You take care looking forward to seeing Maze in concert again. From Virginia we love y'all ❤️
I grew up listening and going to Maze concerts, always one of the best.Frankie will always be one of the best in the business,, God Bless U Frankie,, keep pushing.
I grew up near the Nile Swim Club and remember the signs for Frankie Beverly and Raw Soul performing at Splash Parties. I wasn’t old enough to go, but listened to him 50+ years. I had the fortune of meeting band members at a hotel in Houston. I recognized McKinley and went over and sat with him in the lobby for a few minutes. Frankie was a a different hotel. When the live album in NO came out in 1980, I became hooked on him again. I’ve seen him numerous times in Philly, Chicago, Houston, Hampton, Dallas and Phoenix. Watching this video, he is giving his soul and everything he’s got. I’m reveling in the music and the concerts. Thank YOU Frankie for all that you’ve done and accomplished. Great memories. Funny thing about the Houston concert, Frankie came on after Lakeside and Mr. Bigs (Ronald Isley) was after Frankie. I felt bad for Mr. Bigs cause when Frankie and Maze finished, more than half the crowd left!
Frankie, you have worked hard all of your life.... And you bought Love and Joy to so many People!!!!! You deserve to rest now! Just remember you are still great in our eyes ... I play your CD so often! You will never be forgotten... God Bless Your Soul..🙏🏽 Just love you!!!!! Thank you so much for your contribution to the word!❤❤❤❤(2024)

Screaming 🗣️ to Mr Beverly- Frankie babeeee.. You are a legend and you’ve given us so much love through your music! I wish I could kiss your cheek 😘. We saw you not long ago in Atlantic City NJ and WE ( your fans ) CARRIED YOU THROUGH the entire performance 🎶 That’s how special you are.. your music is in our heads and hearts FOREVER 🥰
THIS CONCERT TOUCHED ME IN SOME KIND OF WAY........WOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE DECADES OF SONG FRANKIE BEVERLY. i PRAY THAT GOD WILL CONTINUE TO BLESS AND KEEP YOU. WE LOVE YOU FOREVER.
It is time to give Frankie his well deserved flowers while he is able to smell them.Frankie is a true Legend. His voice is very weak and he is looking very fragile. We will always love his music,and he will live in our hearts forever ♥️ ❤️. Minor Family/Kenner, Louisiana

Mr.Beverly,,do your legendary career the benefit of the doubt and know enough to let go with grace.... remain the best from the memories we have of You.
I saw his last show in Charlotte and as much as I love Frankie Beverly it was really hard to watch ,I'd rather he lip synched than to struggle through his songs .love you still frankie
OOh I got to see Franky sing my favorite Maze song LIVE!!!! Can't you see that I want to?! Thank you Franky for that! Love, love, love me some Franky Beverly & Maze.
This is amazing! Frankie was in Jacksonville, FL 13 or 14 years ago today . We sat in the restaurant for the entire day and shared our life stories. This I will never forget and always respect and honor this LEGEND!!!!!❤
He did the damn thing throughout his years regardless of what anyone has to say lett t god be the glory and he is able to retire and not pass away through sickness he’s still standing praise be to God amen
