Page "Nirvana (British band)" Paragraph 11

The duo reunited in 1985, touring Europe and releasing a compilation album Black Flower ( Bam-Caruso, 1987 ) which contained some new material.

( Black Flower had been the original planned title of their third album ).

In the 1990s two further albums were released.

Secret Theatre 1994 compiled rare tracks and demos, while Orange and Blue 1996 contained previously unreleased material including a flower-power cover of Kurt Cobain's song " Lithium " originally recorded by Cobain's grunge band of the same name, Nirvana.

According to the band's official website, this was intended as part of a tongue-in-cheek album called Nirvana Sings Nirvana that was aborted when Cobain died.

When the recording was presented on the Orange and Blue album, Campbell-Lyons's liner notes treated it seriously and with allusion to Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights.

Also according the website, the band still wanted to open for Hole even after Cobain's death.
