at Hacienda Los Pirules

Maria Muldaur has sung it all; blues, rock, jazz, big band swing, folk, and the list goes on. "Midnight at the Oasis", Maria's first solo effort went platinum in the USA . The classic single, which featured an excellent guitar solo by Amos Garrett is still heard on adult contemporary, pop and classic rock formats nationwide. Maria Muldaur's "Richland Woman Blues", a collection of classic blues songs from the '20s and '30s is earning standing ovations in Canada. Greg Quill in a review wrote in the Toronto's Saturday Star, "We may never hear music like this played again with such authority, wit and energy."

THE ALBUM OF THE DECADE? -- Maria's Latest CD is Wowing the Critics--JOIN US at Hacienda Los Pirules!
  Album of the Decade: that's what famed producer Jerry Wexler calls Maria Muldaur's new Stony Plain album, 'Richland Woman Blues'.  "It's an exceptional record," he's telling everyone - and he regards it as "a personal mission" to bring the attention to his myriad contacts in the industry.  Among those he's forwarded personal copies to are Timothy White, editor in chief of Billboard, and Jann Wenner, publisher of Rolling Stone.

The reviews for the record have been uniformly enthusiastic, both in Canada (where it was initially released, a month before at appeared elsewhere) and in the United States.  Sample quotes:

"The blues have never sounded so sweet.  And so genuine. 'Richland Women Blues' is Maria Muldaur's latest release in an eclectic and illustrious career that has spanned four decades - and it's sure to be an indelible acoustic blues classic.  Every song is a simple wonder...it all connects straight from the head to the heart to the toes to the soul." - Mike Bell, Calgary Sun.
