Midnight Oil Rarity – Jim Moginie’s ‘Lost’ “No Vans Mary’ Surfaces For Limited Time

in News

‘No Vans Mary’, a 2009 unreleased album by Midnight Oil’s Jim Moginie, has been made available for a limited time.

At Bandcamp Jim says, “It is essentially a Jim solo record, me playing and writing everything with some great musicians: Suzy Flowers, Elizabeth Geyer, Luke Bonic and Kevin Kelley.

“I’d actually describe it as my lost second solo album. I don’t know that it should be ever found having said that…

“It’s a first attempt at this type of acoustic/folk genre, if you like. Without trying to sound apologetic (I really like it), it’s another musical thread to anything resembling traditional Irish music”.

Shameless Seamus ‘No Vans Mary’ is available digitally for $7 or on a extremely limited run of 50 CDs for $20.
