Setanta records have released their final ‘various artists’ record, entitled ‘The Separate’. According to The Irish Times: ‘the standout track is clearly Joan as Police Woman’s beautiful take on The Smiths’ This Night Has Opened My Eyes. Swapping Johnny Marr’s guitar riff for forlorn piano, it’s a stark, melancholic ballad that captures the heartache of the original succinctly and sympathetically’. The Cure’s ‘close to me’ is also covered.
