Synopsis

Album Description
Maria Muldaur?s musical style defies definition. She?s conquered jazz, blues, country, folk, gospel and rock, while shaking the tambourine with Jerry Garcia and blending vocals with Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, Aaron Neville, Dr. John and Charles Brown. She spent time as a member of the Even Dozen Jug Band and the Jim Kweskin Jug Band before going solo. This collection spans the last 30 years, featuring audience and personal favorites, picked by Muldaur herself. She includes track-by-track commentary in the liner notes, offering special memories and anecdotes for each of the CD?s 19 tracks. Forty years into her career, Maria Muldaur continues to tour and release new material.

CD Reviews

Superb overview of her distinguished career
David Mandau | Takoma Park, MD | 11/19/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If all you know by Maria is Midnight at the Oasis or if all you have is an album or two, you're in for a treat. This collection collects the cream of her long career and puts it in one package. If you've ever seen her perform live, then you'll know many of these songs, because these are the ones that form the core of her stage act. If you're a fan of the blues, gospel, soul, and country--not to mention straight-up pop--you will love Maria Muldaur, and this CD is the perfect introduction. Get it while you can!"
Let this woman lead the Second Line Parade
D. Wright | San Diego, CA United States | 11/10/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have appreciated this woman's voice for more than the thirty years she has been recording. It is regrettable that she hasn't received the attention she deserves for her body of work, but that is just the luck of being an artist who chooses the best work for herself truly. She is ecclectic in her choices, ranging from New Orleans, LA to Nashville/Memphis, TN to New York City, NY. The album 'Maria Muldaur's 'Midnight At The Oasis' was my introduction to her and was a pop hit in the mid-70s and it also had on it Dolly Parton's 'My Tennesee Mountain Home'. Two songs of such distinct style differences that gave my fifteen year old mind wonderful posibilities. On this retrospective, there are the contributions of Doctor John, the Neville Brothers, Peggy Lee, Brother Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, JJ Cale, Ry Cooper, Bonnie Riatt, Mavis Staples, The Chambers Brothers, Benny Carter, and too many more. Because of Ms Mudaur, I have since listened to and become a fan of many almost forgotten greats like Ma Rainey, Memphis Minnie, Fats Waller, Bessie Smith, and Hoagy Carmichael. I have seen people try to catagorize the music of this woman, but she is more than the Blues, or Gospel, or Pop, or whatever you try to file her under - other than Favorite."
