e/Midnight at the Oasis

Information
has gloss	eng: "Midnight at the Oasis" is a 1974 song which was performed by singer Maria Muldaur and was her best known hit, peaking at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100. Written by David Nichtern, the would-be naughty song is a teasing offer of a desert love affair, in a setting which owes more to Rudolph Valentino sheik movies than to real Middle Eastern deserts. Allmusic reviewer Matthew Greenwald describes the song as "so sensual and evocative that it was probably one of the most replayed records of the era and also may be responsible for the most pregnancies from a record during the mid-70s". Some of the lyrics are mildly suggestive (i.e., "lets slip off to a sand dune ... and kick up a little dust"), but not sexually explicit.
