Muldaur is considered a "one-hit wonder," because her song "Midnight at the Oasis" went to the Top Ten in 1973 in the U.S., and in fact was one of the best selling singles that year, yet she didn't have any other hits. However, that song is only a very small part of her musical legacy, as this concert shows.
Although this concert was recorded at the Cambridge Folk Festival, Muldaur's music couldn't simply be called folk. As her Wikipedia entry puts it, she "has recorded albums in the folk, blues, early jazz, gospel, country, and R&B traditions." There's a lot of different styles mixed together here.
Note that this is another album I never would have found had it not been for musical friend Progspog, who shared this with me. It's another extremely obscure one. I've found reference to her doing at least one other concert for the BBC, in January 1976. If anyone has that, or other BBC stuff from her, please share it with me and I'll post it here. (And then this one will get renamed to "Volume 2.")
The music is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent.
This album is 55 minutes long.
