MARIA MULDAUR Midnight at the Oasis
#musicreactions

If a genie bottle with the Year 1974 washed up on a shore and you picked up and rubbed it... Maria Muldaur would come popping out singing Midnight at the Oasis, wearing those blue denim hip huggers, the braless halter top, the huge flowing frizzy hair with the bright flower. And of course playing the tambourine on her hip... COME ON... WOW. What a great style and great decade for music. That's that perfect visual and sound of 1974. AMAZING!!!
She was well-respected in the music scene of the time. Warmed up for the Dead a few times, and also sang with the Jerry Garcia Band. ua-cam.com/video/zi28uXHg7A0/v-deo.html
What a memorable picture you painted
Maria Muldaur and Nicollete Larsen were 2 under appreciated singers that didn't get enough recognition for their work, in my opinion
NICOLLET DIED PREMATURELY. I think she was only about fifty three years old.
I would add Phoebe Snow
Maria M and Nicollete were amazing. Such great female vocalists then. Add Roberta Flack too.
You're absolutely right also rickie lee jones.

A sassy, senuous and classic song by Maria Muldaur. She has great energy! I love the guitar which gives an island vibe! It brings back great memories of the 1970s! 😊
Thanks so much for this....Maria's music has blessed me ever since 1974. And just to be clear, this is not a "cover version" but the original version that made it to the Billboard Top Ten. The fantastic Guitar work was done by Amos Garrett. And while he's done a lot since then....this song really gave his career a real boost as it did for Maria. Thanks much for your Reaction Videos, I really enjoy your thoughts and opinions.
Haven't heard this in years.
Brilliant performance
Oh Miss Muldair! This song is the epitome of my young love days with a special young man! Great memories. I saw her about 15 years ago at a folk festival, Wheatland Music Festival. She still wore dresses and nylons. Amazing soulful voice. This entire album is worth a listen when you're so inclined. Glad you liked this! Check out her "Don't You Feel My Leg" for some more naughty girl. 🤩
Also loved, It Ain't the Meat and I'm a Woman. Another, much sweeter tune, Waitress in a Donut Shop. So many, many, fun tunes.
I love how Maria sounds in this one. Harry's right, sultry and sexy sounding. Used to be played on the radio quite a lot back in the day.
No matter what musical era we're in there's always room for a good vocalist.
Oh goshhh still remember this all over radio ..big hit!
Aaaah, early 70's, early 20's such great music and great times. Tripping down memory lane. This is the only version I know
Very popular back in the day.
Maria's version is the only one I heard growing up and adored it. I had forgotten just how much xx
Still love it after all these years. Great performance.
Takes me back to my teen years! Love it!
Maria also sang a great song called 'Don't You Feel My Leg' -- featuring the lyrics, "Don't you feel my leg, 'Cause if you feel my leg, you'll wanna feel my thigh, And if you feel my thigh, you gonna make me high, So don't you feel my leg." Probably also be right up your alley, Harri. ;-)
And another song she did was called 'It Ain't the Meat It's the Motion' - so, yeah, she wasn't afraid to be overtly sexual, which I think was refreshing at the time she came onto the scene.
@@DJHolte
Not Muldaur related but I'm devastated that 2 Nice Girls "I Spent My Last $10 On Birth Control & Beer" hasn't got enough views for me to request it
You mixed up two verses. Its: "And if you feel my thigh, You're gonna go up high." then next verse, "'Cause if you buy me rye, You're gonna make me high." The original was done in the '30s by husband & wife team Blue Lou and Danny Barker. Maria recorded it on her first album. After "Oasis" hit big, she dropped it from her setlist because she didn't want to be stereotyped as a "sexy singer." I can't imagine how she thought, with the way she looked and sang, that would ever be possible.
She also recently covered "He ain't Got rhythm" "He gained much attention when he located the 4th dimension but he ain't got rhythm he's the loneliest man in town"
@@John_Chu You're right that in the early verses she says "go too high", but in a later verse, she does sing "if you feel my thigh, you're gonna get me high".
Oh man...that 70's sound. I remember that feel and vibe even as a little kid born in the mid 70's. I haven't heard it since then but i remember it well. The 1970's had the best music, it's undisputable.
A hit song in 1973 written by David Nichten recorded by Maria Mulder it peak at #6 on Singles Charts in Spring of 1974. Brand New Heavies did of a cover in 1994 went to #13 in the UK
One of Art Bells favorite bumpers for anyone who remembers Coast to Coast AM. Great song.
Good memories, I threw thousands of newspapers out of my car windows driving around at zero dark thirty listening to Art Bell as one of my jobs I used to work my way through college 😊
@@coocoocachooglin I was a rent-a-cop, and did plenty of graveyard shifts along with Art. Special times! Sometimes I wonder what happened to people like Richard Hoagland, Dannion Brinkley and Linda Moulton Howe.
Maria did an album last year with my favorite New Orleans Band Tuba Skinny. It was called Let's Get Happy Together. Kit has won a few awards...She is 78.
Saw her in NY back in the 70s, a delicious looking and talented woman
The bass guitar is so smooth that it gets over looked that is holding the song together .
I’m about to look up the guitar player. He sounds like the rhythm guy on Rock Your Baby. Year before?
One of the most sensual and sex promoting song of the 70's. It said a lot of pregnancies resulted from this song.
Actually it was a last minute addition to Maria's album.
Nominated for Song of the year and Album of the year, in 1975 , 17th Grammy Awards, it was immensely popular. Beautiful melody, lyrics, vocals and guitar make up this perfect song.
Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and John, a great memory. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Mary, you'll appreciate the fact that the wonderful guitar solo was played by Amos Garrett (a Canadian!) who started out playing with Ian & Sylvia. He also played guitar on Anne Murray's "Snowbird." He got involved with the scene in Woodstock and played with a lot of artists from that locale (Todd Rundgren, Jesse Winchester, Paul Butterfield, etc.). Jimmy Page called him one of the best guitarists in North America. He lives in Edmonton nowadays. 80 years old, still playing guitar.
@@John_Chu Thanks John for the great information. I checked out his info and saw he's played for over 150 great artists. Amazing indeed. Even Bonnie Raitt. Thanks for all your great choices
John. Delightful. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
🇨🇦
@@John_Chu Saw him this summer at Calgary BluesFest. He still plays some mean gu7tar
Best guitar solo all-time.
She does every kind of music. From children's songs and an album of Shirley Temple covers to an album entitled Naughty, Bawdy, and Blue. She does Gospel, Blues, throwback music, big band, jug music, and has done at least album as part of the Blues Preservation Project. Richland Woman Blues album is music by black women in the 1920's and 30's. My personal favorite are Walking One and Only, It Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing, and Richland Woman. Oh, and she just released her 39th album last year, not counting the 7 she did as part of jug bands.
Beautiful, Harri !!!
Another female artist with a unique beautiful voice is Minnie Ripperton and her hit Lovin You. It will amaze you.
I cannot imagine Harri not being familiar with Minnie Ripperton. 😉
I remember that song. It came out when I was in high school.
Minnie was one of the finest female singers I've ever heard. What a voice! She actually learned how to sing soprano before she became well known. Sad she is no longer with us.
Gorgeous song. She sounds so much like the late great Minnie Riperton.
YOU MADE MY DAY, HARRY!!! This is the one song I request reactors to do more than any other (although I prefer a different live version). Check out her insanely great blues stuff sometime (try "well, well, well", along with mavis staples. or, "like heaven on earth", with johhny adams). Maria is an American treasure!!!
Jamie, me too. So happy someone finally did.
@@dlbeal he isn't the only one who has discovered it. but one of the few. and he led ME to listen to the cover by "the brand new heavies". so dancy, but not bad. :)
Second that, and I think I know the version you're thinking of - with the hypnotic tamborine? ua-cam.com/video/8bjzuSO27fA/v-deo.html&pp=ygUjbWlkbmlnaHQgYXQgdGhlIG9hc2lzIG1hcmlhIG11bGRhdXI%3D
I was 12 years old when this song came out , The memories this song brings back are wonderful !!
As soon as I saw the title of the song you were going to react to I knew it was going to be fun and enjoyable one. This song was quite the song back in the day
Good Lord the memories of this beautiful song and this woman enchanted me as a little boy in 1974
I was 21 and thought she was one of the sexist girls alive
A gorgeous voice! Also boasts a superb guitar track by Amos Garrett.
I was going to mention Amos. One of my all-time favourite guitar solos with beautiful licks to complement her dreamy vocals.
Best guitar solo all-time.
Wonderfully upbeat and playful throughout! Lovely!
Great song! Haven’t heard it in ages. Great memories, yeah, those kind! Wonderful reaction. Thank you!
This entire album is absolutely one of the most well-produced and perfectly arranged collection of songs of the entire 70's decade. Top notch musicianship and production.
Not heard Brand New Heavies will take a listen. Love Maria Mulduar and sing along. My go to Karaoke tune. ❤
I love this song so much. Thank you for the memories John.💞
John Chu, you have resurrected another great one. Linda Ronstadt wrote glowingly of Maria in her book, “Simple Dreams”. Everyone agrees that she was under appreciated. Thanks for the great requests. Thanks to Harri as well 🌺✌️
My pleasure, Debbie. So many great artists and songs to recall and celebrate. But, hey, the besties are on a mission! With Harri's help. LOL.
Always loved this his song… sultry, beautiful!
I've always said this is the most sensual songs of all time.
Beautiful song she was one of my favorite singers in the day she still is.
Nice. Maria was also a backup singer in the Jerry Garcia Band in the late 70's. Beautiful voice.
Saw Maria at the Boardwalk in San Francisco, she is amazing.
One of my favorites from back in the day. So tender and beautiful!
This song came out in late Spring, early Summer in 1974 and fit the weather perfectly-sultry with a cool breeze-big hit at the time.
GREAT SONG...! I recently RE-discovered this gem...!
Maria Muldaur is an American folk & blues singer. She recorded "Midnight at the Oasis" in 1973 & it was her biggest hit. I remember this song well. She also did 2 of Brenda Lee's classic songs “I’m A Woman” & "Fever". She also has covered some of Bob Dylan's songs such as “Heart Of Mine”, “Wedding Song” & “Well, Well, Well”.
she has performed with some of the best in the business. her duet with mavis on "well, well, well" is just haunting (that entire album is gold).
One of the best trips ever was listening to this on 5 hits of LSD in t mid 70s, could see everything, oasis, camels etc, great stuff
😇
Finally, Maria was huge in the 1970's!! I retain all my albums and have seen her many times.
How could anyone sing this song as good or better than Maria Muldair?
In the 1990s this song was frequently used as bumper music in the famous Coast to Coast with Art Bell. The show based out of Pahrump Nevada was notorious for bringing public awareness to Area 51. For 3 hours starting at midnight with a 1 or 2 hour replay afterwards you had every crazy in the universe on AM radio. One night would start with newsworthy material to a 2 to 3 hour special interviews about anything: aliens, teleportation, remote viewing, nuclear energy, Bible prophesy, (Protestant or Catholic)1960s space race etc. I would fall asleep with the radio on. Absolutely riveting, crazy songs like this one or Counting Flowers On the Wall by the Statler Brothers.
One of my favorite tracks ever! The guitar solo is inspired
Yeah, Maria Muldaur no doubt made lots of boys want to “kick up a little dust”. Loved your reaction, Harri.
Great vocal, and the guitar work is sublime!
Sultry is the perfect definition of Maria's voice. You should check out Maria doing "Open Your Eyes" it's AMAZING and it was written by Michael McDonald!
I've never heard this song before, how could I have missed it?!
One of the 1970's best songs !!!!
This is the one I knew and thoroughly enjoyed.
There I was, in the lobby of WDST-FM, when in flowed Maria M. in all her glory, said hi the everyone then bounced up the stairs to see someone or another! Just took one's breath away!
I did an album cover for her in the early 80s ( Gospel NIghts) ...as a person, she is delightful, kind and genuine ....and when it comes to her music, she is the consumate performer .... and of course her slightly wicked sense of humor is always ,.......shall we say ,......good for a laugh ...Maria is aces in my book
This song played on the radio several times an hour, more if you slid through the stations on the tuner... it was always playing somewhere on the dial.
Being a typical teen back then, you tried to decode the innuendo and metaphors. Lots of memories from this one, Harri.
Been a fan of hers since I first heard her voice, love most everything she's done that I know, but particularly this album, Sweet Harmony the album and especially the song, Waitress in a Donut Shop, Southern Winds (make love to the music & cajun moon), and Louisiana Love Call with Dr John, with one of the most beautiful songs you'll ever hear is Southern Music from that album. She started out in a jug band and like someone alluded to this song was just cobbled together by the drummer (maybe, do not remember anymore for sure) because they needed one more song for the album and it became a run away hit and probably her most well known. If I remember right her husband at the time Jeff Muldaur was on this album on bass. Go find Southern Music with here and Dr John for a real treat, before you forget, then go buy all of her music that you can! Last I saw she was still out there performing live.
I saw here opening for the Grateful Dead back about 1974 in Santa Barbara Ca. She was great!!
Saw MAria opening for the Grateful Dead in 1974, she is very talented.
Guitarist Amos Garrett was kind of known for solos that went the opposite direction from other lead players. His tended to go upwards, note-wise, up the guitar neck. Gave him a really unusual sound.
Maria also sang in the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and the Jerry Garcia Band, though generally as a backup singer.
I have never seen any music reactor genuinely enjoy music the way you do Harri. It’s always amazing too me how perfectly you describe every song.
I can no longer hear this song without thinking of the mockumentary, Waiting for Guffman. Fred Willard and Katherine O'Hara auditioning. OMG SO funny.
I was 6 in 1973. This was released it was intriguing
April of 1974! Great times!
I cannot believe someone has edited this classic tune! Now you should hear the original uncut version! This is a dubbed performance of a live session.
Awesome choice, John Chu! Soooo nostalgic!!
Richland Woman Blues was a song I really liked long before I found out it was Maria Muldaur singing it.
I'd also suggest listening to her recording of the Jimmy Rodgers song called Any Old Time. I think you'd like it very much.
Maria Grazia Rosa Domenica D'Amato.....I love her works with Ryland Cooder !!!
She had quite a few great tunes and started as a Jug Band singer. John the Generator, Tennesee Mountain Home, As an Eagle Stirrith in Her Nest, Black Coffee.
Maria Muldaur got her start with the Jim Kweskin & Jug Band! They were one of my favorites back in the day. I had their album released in 1966 which was stamped on both sides with "See Reverse Side For Title!" Always enjoyed her voice!
I saw her at a festival years ago and she sounded good still. I wonder if she is kicking still.
Maria was one of my favorites in my college days in the mid 70's. While this is very poppy, most of her music was much more jazzy blues. One of my favorites was "Old Rockin' Chair."
Happy Happy >>>
I'll have to check out Brand New Heavies version. I didn't know it had been covered! Maria Muldaur's sensuous song "Midnight at The Oasis" theme is a vivid love affair theme! Great memories of the 1970s! I'm glad you like it!
Good choice as usual Hari. The whole album is great.
Wasn't there a track called " It Ain't the Meat it's the Motion " ( that makes your Mamma wanna roll) ?
@@auldfouter8661 doesn't ring a bell. Possible.
@@kelleyborkowski1820 ua-cam.com/video/8IkNDzvCswU/v-deo.html
The great arrangement, starting from that wonderfully brisk intro (made for radio play) and the wonderful production on this song tend to make you smile at the rather fey lyrics of this song - where in other contexts they would just annoy. Maria's voice fits the song perfectly and as a package it had "hit" written all over it. I like this one a lot, but even so I preferred the follow up single "Gringo En Mexico" which sadly didn't do anything like as well.
i saw her at the lonestar in NYC in 1985....basically a bar. She kicked ass.
I think you would really enjoy a Canadian Jazz singer named Molly Johnson. She was in a couple of bands called Alta Moda: Julian (not Aldo Nova), The Infidels : Celebrate and as back up singer for Tom Cochrane and Red Rider. She also has her own solo work which is fantastic. Soulful, funky and smokey vocal.
Love this..Reminds me of being young
What a beautiful song! I wasn't born when this came out but wow, what an amazing voice! I accidentally heard this song on a jazz station few days ago. The original is a masterpiece and now I can't stop listening to this. I love the 70's music.
Hi Harri ... Her last name is pronounced like "mulled flower", but without the "fl" (i.e. "mull-dower"). I'm glad you got to here this brilliant song. I was just reading an article about her, and how people still give her sh*t for doing sexual songs that reflect the older thinking, but she's adamant that THAST'S the way she likes it ... I do too and think there's nothing wrong with it. God, I use to dream about her when her song would come on the radio, late at night . I always felt like she was talking/singing to me 😉😊😁👍😎.
Maria had the original hit on it in 1974. The Brand New Heavies are the ones who did the cover.
Love your recent choices! tks!
Great oldie from the mid 70s. Listen to those sexually suggestive lyrics.
Thanks Harri
Thank You Harri Great song ,you could hear it a 1,000 times and still always stop to enjoy, it's a hidden Gem, it conjures up an image in your mind like your in the sand dunes. Thanks for the BD reply I'm glad you got to read it.👍
Love that song!
I love it and like being introduced to the Heavies but Maria goes back farther than they do. She was also married to another musician, Jeoff Muldaur. Maria is old now, like me, but she still performs.
There is an eight part series in which Maria Mauldar talks about her past. It is part of a Living Legends Music series. You owe it to yourself to check it out, along with some of her more mature performances.
I saw her in 1975 in Portland Oregon and 25 years later in a little bar in Oregon City. Her voice is a little lower but she still got it. She did a series of interviews about her career which show up as 5-minute spots on UA-cam.
Thanks Harri. She joined Jerry Garcia Band for a short stint. Great talent 👍
Love her & the song. She moved to New Orleans many years ago & makes occasional appearances.
I bought the album when it dropped in ‘71/72?
It’s a superb album with every track different.
Thoroughly recommended.
Guitar is unreal,maria was the first to record it
Love it❤❤❤❤❤
What a sexy song! (When the original came out, I was 17 and exploding with hormones.) And technically speaking, I love how the melody begins halfway through the bar, on beat three. And even more uniquely, it starts on the 6th scale degree. Refreshing.
We were all in love with her back then. She was a major part of the folk scene. I saw her live in concert maybe six or seven years ago at a very intimate 220-seater.
A single in the Summer of '74.
True story here. When this song came out they played it every night at midnight at a bar named The Oasis at the Yakima Training Center in central Washington state
