About this album

Maria Muldaur is a standout debut that turned an assured roots singer into a mainstream name. Released in 1973, it paired blues, folk, jazz and country touches with the easygoing soft-rock polish that helped Midnight at the Oasis become her signature hit. Produced by Joe Boyd, the album draws on American vernacular styles without losing its relaxed, conversational charm, and Muldaur’s voice gives even the lighter material real character. Alongside its best-known song, the record includes interpretations and originals that underline her range and her place in the early-1970s singer-songwriter boom. Its success made it one of the era’s most distinctive crossover albums.
