The Readifolk Radio Show included Daughters of Mercy in this week's show and made some very kind comments on the Beacon - Half-light double release. I get a secret thrill anytime someone seems to really understand why I released both together and "I can't make up my mind which versions I prefer" is the kind of feedback it's massively rewarding to hear, so thank you!
Personally I'm glad they picked the Beacon version for the show, as that layered vocal coda after the last verse was one of my favourite studio moments - as much as I like to keep things live, sections like this are where the beauty (and freedom) of production really comes into its own for me. I think I have a blog post on favourite moments from the album coming up soon, if you've got any favourites so far let me know and I'll add them in...
