Maria


Maria Muldaur [1943] sings a sexy kinda jazzy blues. She just popped up from my dark memories and now I know why. She has a great voice and she nowadays has this big-mamma cleavage on most of her pictures. I just love her.
The New Orleans Hop Scop Blues song from her 2007 Naughty, Bawdy and Blue album.
Her 1999 album Meet Me Where They Play the Blues.
As a former habitué of the 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene, the singer Maria Muldaur has more of a right than most to be performing a Bob Dylan covers album. This set of well-chosen and imaginatively arranged versions, released in 2006, of some of Dylan's best love songs proves Muldaur's mastery of both sultry after-hours pieces like the swaying "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight" and the come-hither "Lay Baby Lay" (originally, of course,"Lay Lady Lay"), as well as Dylan's less literal expressions of romance, such as "The Golden Loom", an obscurity filled with interwoven religious, pagan, and sexual imagery. Here is this 2003 album Love Songs of Bob Dylan.
Her 2005 album Sweet Lovin Old Soul.

Enjoy
