@EricFlatpick Yes, that's Richard.

@PHJimY I'm sure she's a lovely person to this day and still a great singer too. That said, "matronly" translates to "fat as hell". I don't look like I did 47 years ago, but I'm in excellent shape for an old guy of my years, and I don't accept being fat and unfit. Too many in our culture do and it's a real shame.
I recommend "The Paleo Solution" [google it] to everyone of all ages, btw.

@KaptKan1 Maria is a matronly 68 year old woman, but I'd hardly describe her as "fat as hell". Granted, she doesn't look like she did 47 years ago, when this video was made, but neither do you or I.

@TheDrmedina Actually, that's Geoff Muldaur singing (with guitar), up front, and Fritz Richmond in the back left, on the bass. Who's the fiddler? That's not Richard Greene, is it?

Geoff Muldaur on washtub bass. Maria was originally D'Amato, and played violin. Bill Keith is on banjo. I heard and met him ca. 1964.

@KaptKan1 And why do you give a damn?
-
He's playing on Geoff Muldaur's new album, "The Texas Shieks," and sounds great.

@fluxstringer I was at a birthday party for a friends mom who was turning 90 a few years back. A lot of Jimmy's relatives (cousins and aunt) and they hadn't heard from him in years. I remember that just as the band was headed big time, Jimmy went off to cultville. He recently reappeared in a catalog from Happy Traum's company with a new guitar lesson CD. So I guess he hasn't totally disappeared off the face of the earth.

Downtown Blues...yeah! Where can i get a copy of The Blues Project compilation from Electra?

Somebody didn't like me pointing out that Maria Muldaur went and got fat as hell. Tough. It's a fact, and a sad one, too.
Maria was such a foxy chick, man! And she was always a great singer, too. Some just can't dig her style. Tough luck on their part.

Wrong and right respectively. Maria was and is a terrific singer.
