She is the sexiest singer that ever sang a song! Her voice just gets to me no matter what song she's singing! And I love how she can sing so many genres. Maria, you're my favorite singer!!! You turn me on!
It's great to see Maria at this early stage in her career. I saw her a couple of year ago, at Lincoln Center. She had it then , and she still has it now !!
For the summer of '65, my girlfriend Annie (Radcliffe '66) and I lived in a flat on Huron Avenue, Cambridge, Mass. One day we heard the sound of funky music coming through the party wall. On investigation we discovered it was Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band with Maria D'Amato (Maldaur) rehearsing for a gig, probably Newport. Anyway, they were good neighbours, solisitice about disturbing us... and pleased when we told them we were cool, and dug their music.
Her voice was so fine on this; it has a delicacy but she doesn't at all have 'little' voice, it was strong. She can really bend those notes! I love Mississippi John Hurt's singing of this song, but I really like this, too. (Maria, of course, is still singing, beautifully. )
This song really has it all - incredible vocals, and some of the most appealing, and deftly played instrumental parts. Few are as good as this one. Incredible that MM had a voice this good so early and with only a little formal instruction. I saw her in our town theater a couple months ago. She can still sing it like she always did. Something like how Judy Collins' voice just never seems to change! I saw her here as well, about 2 months before MM came to town.
She was young, pretty, sassy and had an exceptional voice in the '60s when she was with the Kreskin Jug Band. She's still got a darn good voice, especially for the blues and ragtime tunes . My favorite Kreskin tune featuring her is I'm a woman, W-O-M-A-N!
My favorite lick (the harmonics at the end) of my favorite guitar solo by my favorite guitarist (Geoff Muldaur) of my favorite Mississippi John Hurt tune. Pure heaven.
@@petesenkowski7521 I think you may be right. I hadn't picked up on that before. I know Keith was an incredible virtuoso. I thought at least that first one was G. Muldaur.
@@petesenkowski7521 Yup--definitely banjo with mute clipped to bridge. Saw them at the Union Hall in Milwaukee in 1966 or thereabouts; muted banjo has that almost etherial sound.
Used to go hear Kweskin and company whenever they played the Ash Grove in LA, late 60s. Would always get there early to get a stageside seat so I coukd oogle Maria…
If you are wondering what that great guitar backup aside from Kweskin it is BIll Keith playing a banjo with a mute...it is my favorite stumper question
that was her husband in the first bw picture. geoff muldaur,, a great guitar player and excellent vocalist too. saw him a few times in the 2008- 2011 timeframe.
Always found it amazing that she did not become more of a nationally known singing star. She must have rubbed somebody the wrong way - or, rather, she didn't.
It was pretty wonderful. And magical to hear this song for the first time over WBAI in New York. She was also my introduction to Mississippi John Hurt's music.
Maria Muldaur didn't "sell her soul" musically speaking. Bob Dylan picked up the electric guitar at the '65 Newport Folk Festival: the times they were a changin.' She has a range of talents beyond jug band, as people soon realized. Inspired by Kweskin, Seeger and John Sebastian I played harmonica and banjo in a high school jug band (1967-70), and it was a lot of fun. Played folk music over the years, but it isn't my only music. Incidentally Josh Rifkin, pianist of the Even Dozen Jug Band, eventually became an Ivy League University musicology professor who developed an original theory about performing J.S. Bach -- more power to him!
A great John Hurt song performed by Maria and Geoff. A combination which Is musically magical. I suspect I play their arrangement as much or even more often that the recordings of John playing it himself.
Big fan of the Jug Band since the 60s! I always thought Maria changed the wording in the line after "Red rooster says cockadoodally doodally doo". I can't help but think she changed the next line to "Richland woman she says any dude will do" in order not to offend the listener by using the word "cock", which I bet is the original wording (and is more amusing). Anyone know for sure?
Bullshit. Her initial solo album was a surprise (deserved) hit. And she stayed true to the music. She re-recorded Richland Woman Blues a few years ago.

Maria is a phenomenal singer! She can sing anything: folk, blues, pop, country, and gospel!
Yes. Yes she can...

Have you heard her sing "Midnight at the Oasis"? It's on TH-cam.
Listened to this again after quite a few years. Those seem like simpler times. Still a beautiful track.
Maria stole my heart the first I heard Midnight at the Oasis.
I saw her in 1976…..amazing voice 👏👏👏

One of my all-time favorites!
She's awesome
Probably my favorite song on any Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band album.
She was one of my all-time most famous singers as a young teenage adult man.
Really great. I love it. Beautiful voice.

Latest from Maria? She's done some songs with Tuba Skinny! Now THAT"S music, Maria and them together!

Love the music and the song is "risque'but I love it. The voice just has it.
My favorite lick (the harmonics at the end) of my favorite guitar solo by my favorite guitarist (Geoff Muldaur) of my favorite Mississippi John Hurt tune. Pure heaven.
I'm pretty sure that the backup and both solos were played by Bill Keith on muted banjo.
pretty sure that's Jim Kweskin on guitar
@@petesenkowski7521 I think you may be right. I hadn't picked up on that before. I know Keith was an incredible virtuoso. I thought at least that first one was G. Muldaur.
It's Jim and Geoff

This sounds very much like older Hawaiian music. I Love it!!
she could sing and record the phone book and I would buy the record!!! Beautiful voice...I love, love, love it!!
I love her Kweskin era voice.
One of the most perfect arrangements I know of any song.
To have some idea how much they did with it, listen to Mississippi John Hurt's original.
Lights out GREAT..
Great song, great playing, great singing. The melody is that of The Midnight Special.
Used to go hear Kweskin and company whenever they played the Ash Grove in LA, late 60s. Would always get there early to get a stageside seat so I coukd oogle Maria…

Damn, she was even good back then already! 👍
Better!
that was her husband in the first bw picture. geoff muldaur,, a great guitar player and excellent vocalist too. saw him a few times in the 2008- 2011 timeframe.
she's beautiful
The photos---she was as fetching as I remember.
Always found it amazing that she did not become more of a nationally known singing star. She must have rubbed somebody the wrong way - or, rather, she didn't.
Kind of tissue but I can t help but like it. Beautiful clear voice. Love the music
had the double album this was my favorite
Beautiful!!!!
Like her tunes,like the way she wiggles even better when she belts them out.
Thank you! Shared on Google+, May 30, 2018
Aaah to have been young in the 60s. Wonder what that was like
It was a cool time to grow up..and an amazing era for musicians like Maria!
laberenth tiggleworthb Apart from the risk of getting drafted, it was pretty fucking cool.
W B C N !
Best popular music ever is from the 60s.
It was pretty wonderful. And magical to hear this song for the first time over WBAI in New York. She was also my introduction to Mississippi John Hurt's music.
❤❤love this❤❤

Great ! thx for sharing !

It is Kweskin Bill Keith and Fritz playing the washtub...Geoff where? I dont hear him

I'm sure when John Hurt was playin' it on his porch, he sang "Any cock'll do" But it is always recorded as dude.
I have to listen to her with Tuba Skinny!
❤️
Real women look like this.. rest of ya.. eat your heart out.
😊
She looks like Joan Baez
So she had to change it from bDmato to maldir because of racism
No, becaue she married Geof. He had a terrific voice too!
sold her folk soul for top 40 radio money
