For the many not lucky enuf to catch the great talents of the past these vids are the time machine to fine art appreciation! Thanx 4 posting! As to Maria's voice, age brings depth (and sometimes a rasp).

did she just sing "darkies"!?

[YourFaceWillDie468]

How did Muldaur's voice get so womanly? Ten years before this, she sounded so girlish.

Thanks so very much. In the 70's I was lucky enough to hear the McGarrigles, Maria, Ry Cooder, Amos Garrett, and many others in square old Cincinnati...

I love this song; this was my first introduction to the McGarrigles music; and have been a fan ever since; love Kate and Anna,s music, and was so deeply saddened upon hearing of Kate's death. I don't think that Canada ever fully appreciated their talent!
