La edición Wah Wah es la primera edición oficial en vinilo desde 1971. Funda original. Incluye dos temas extra que no estaban en la edición original. Sólo 500 copias. De nuevo un trabajo de Patrick Campbell-Lyons sin Alex Spyropoulos, esta vez Songs Of Love And Praise mostraba un regreso al sonido más clásico de Nirvana. Campbell-Lyons revisitó dos de las canciones más queridas de la banda, Pentecost Hotel de su LP de debut y Rainbow Chaser del segundo. El álbum se abre precisamente con el increíble ritmo uptempo de Rainbow Chaser, que si bien suena fiel a la grabación original, viene con un enfoque totalmente diferente en los arreglos. Campbell-Lyons afirma en los forros que fue un paso más allá en ese campo, y buscó una atmósfera jazzística. Esto marca el tono del álbum: canciones optimistas de buenas vibraciones que difieren del ambiente oscuro del anterior LP Local Anaesthetic y que además de estas dos canciones revisitadas presenta todo material nuevo.
ENGLISH:
Once again a work by Patrick Campbell-Lyons without Alex Spyropoulos, this time Songs Of Love And Praise showed a return to a more classic Nirvana sound. Campbell-Lyons revisited two of the most loved songs by the band, Pentecost Hotel from their debut LP and Rainbow Chaser from their second one. The album opens precisely with the amazing uptempo beat of Rainbow Chaser, which while sounding faithful to the original recording, it comes with a totally different approach on the arrangements. Campbell-Lyons states on the liners that he went for a step further in that field, and looked for a jazzy atmosphere. It sets the tone of the album: upbeat good vibrations songs that differ from the dark mood of the previous Local Anaesthetic LP and that besides these two songs revisited presents all new material.
Uplifted and positive, Songs Of Love And Praise gives what the title promises to take the classic Nirvana sound from their first three albums one step further with the collaboration of Bobby Harrison (Procol Harum, Snafu) Lesley Duncan, Maggie Bell and Sylvia Schuster (who had already played live with Nirvana at the time of their debut album).
