Maria Muldaur acompanied by Bob Dylan and his band - San Francisco 1980

#MariaMuldaur, acompanied by #BobDylan and his band, sings Nobody's Fault But Mine (Blind Willie Johnson cover) at Fox Warfield Theatre. San Francisco, California on 19th November 1980. Muldaur was part of the #GreenwichVillage scene that included Bob Dylan and released solo albums throughout the 1960s and 1970s. ⁠Some of her recollections of the period, particularly with respect to Dylan, appear in Martin Scorsese’s 2005 documentary film, No Direction Home. ⁠ Muldaur established a relationship with the Grateful Dead. Opening for some Grateful Dead shows in the summer of 1974, with John Kahn, bassist of the Jerry Garcia Band, eventually earned her a seat in that group as a backing vocalist in the late 1970s. ⁠ "Maria Muldaur is best known world-wide for her 1973 mega-hit “Midnight at the Oasis,” which received several Grammy nominations, and enshrined her forever in the hearts of Baby Boomers everywhere; but despite her considerable pop music success, her 60 year career could best be described as a long and adventurous odyssey through the various forms of American Roots Music. During the Folk Revival of the early '60s, she began exploring and singing early Blues, Bluegrass and Appalachian “Old Timey” Music, beginning her recording career in 1963 with the Even Dozen Jug Band, and shortly thereafter joining the very popular Jim Kweskin Jug Band, touring and recording with them throughout the '60s."
