Oil on Canvas Tracklist. 1. Oil on Canvas Lyrics. 2. Sons Of Pioneers (Live) Lyrics. Oil on Canvas is the first, last and only full-length live album by British new wave band Japan. Originally recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon in London in November 1982, this double LP was released as a farewell gesture.

Live, Import, Remastered, CD Single. This was the first Japan Album I had ever heard and I still think it is possibly their best (second is Exorcising Ghosts). This band who was effectively robbed of success by Duran Duran, Started as a semi punk mostly New Romantic rock band transformed into one of the great unknown bands of the 1980's.
