August 31, 200717 yr Tank and Andyrattigan, You both made me remember on the whole "Silky Soul" album by Maze. I played "Mandela, Mandela" so many times... IMHO, on this LP Franky sounds a little like George Benson on "Livin' Inside Your Love" vocal tracks LP. A few more (appart from the one by Maze): -"Parisienne Girl" - Incognito -"Homeless" - Curtis Mayfield -"Searching No More" - Billy Paul (not sure 100% about the correct title, is from his Total Experience album "Lately", 1984) -"What A Woman" - O'Jays (my fave from "Love Fever" album, Eddie's at his best!) -"Velas" - Quincy Jones -"Dinorah, Dinorah" - George Benson -"Beyond" - Herb Alpert -"Positivity" - George Duke (from "Dream On" album) -"Hard Rock" - Herbie Hancock (from "Sound System" LP) -"Love Is Coming At Ya" - Melba Moore
