Maria Muldaur
I saw Maria at the Bamboo Room in Lake Worth, FL, last night. What a treat! She was with her band Bluesiana, which was just guitar, drums and keyboards. The keyboardist played the bass line too. Just fantastic, every song in both sets. She ranged from roots blues to gospel to jazz to R&B and soul to Loosiana cajun swamp in her loose and sexy, bluesy style. She's such a mix of influences and uses all of them well.
Her Meet Me At Midnite, from 1994, is the most-played CD in my entire collection. Every song is killer, and the musicians are fantastic.

Wow! This is great. I had kinda forgotten about Maria Muldaur, and will now fill that gap in my collection. Actually I just dug deep into iTunes and found "Midnite at the Oasis" buried deep in my computer - such a sexy song with very sentimental memories for me.
To be honest I never heard a lot of her work, and I will get this soonest. Thanks. Sooooo jealous you could just go SEE her.
People ask her if she gets tired of "Midnight At The Oasis" requests. She says, "No. It put me on the map! She sang it at the Bamboo Room and put thirty more years of livin' on top of it. Wow!
