Maxine Brown Returns
FountainBleu To Distribute Long-Awaited Comeback Disc
New Release Is Icon’s First CD In Decades

NEW YORK, APRIL 7 – It’s not really a “comeback” – but it’s a return to the music world that’s been highly anticipated for years. Soul queen Maxine Brown, long famous for her string of exceptional ’60s R&B chart hits, will soon release the strongest full-length album of her storied, remarkable career. The new effort, From the Heart, will hit stores this summer, distributed throughout the U.S. by Fountainbleu Entertainment.

Brown has remained a concert favorite around the world for years, but just recently she decided to put a collection of new songs together. Just days ago, this “original diva” signed a distribution agreement with Fountainbleu Entertainment President Rafael Fuentes which will bring exclusive retail distribution throughout the United States for her new disc, which was helmed by top New York-area musician/producer Mario Staiano along with blues legend Sam Taylor.

Maxine Brown, still as vibrant and beautiful as ever, earned her status as one of the most influential vocalists of the pop era as she emerged as a full-fledged star during the 1960s. This South Carolina native scored major hits on R&B labels of the day, including “Funny,” “All in My Mind,” “Something You Got” and “Oh, No Not My Baby.” Today, as in the past, Brown is acknowledged as one of the finest R&B vocalists of her time, capable of delivering blues, soul, gospel, pop and jazz with style and class. Her various “greatest hits’’ compilations continue to be top titles among serious R&B aficionados – and From The Heart is destined to join those releases as a favorite for the ages.
