Frankie Beverly's Raw Soul: "Color Blind" 45

Frankie Beverly and Maze!

 Picked up this 45 the other day without any idea of what this would sound like, but with the band name "Frankie Beverly's Raw Soul", I figured it'd have to be semi-interesting.  I wasn't disappointed!  The song starts out with a strong horn intro, and a "huh!" and it's all gravy after that.  Frankie Beverly's Raw Soul were originally from Philly then re-located to San Francisco in the early 70's, where they met Marvin Gaye, who used the "Raw Soul" band as his opening act when touring.  Later the band changed their name to Maze upon Gaye's recommendation, and they had some minor hits along the lines of Earth, Wind, & Fire in the mid to late 70's.
