about

After the resounding success of her debut album ‘Julius’, Meskerem Mees returns with her version of Scottish cult classic “Cod Liver Oil and Orange Juice”, in its turn a scurrilous and hilarious take of the American gospel standard “Virgin Mary Had a Little Baby”. The song was a hit in the 1960s for Glasgow-based folk singer Hamish Imlach, but was, for a time, banned by the BBC because as it was assumed to be full of double meanings, still at one point became the most requested song on British Forces Radio. Today, the uniquely talented Mees turns this cult anthem into an absolute stunner of a folk song.
