The album peaked at no.37 in the UK album chart.[5] The album was released in Japan on 21 November 1987.[6]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsBackground[edit]Track listing[edit]Personnel[edit]Technical personnel[edit]References[edit]Background[edit]The entire album was quickly written in about two inspired weeks shortly after Sylvian’s extensive press tour for Gone to Earth, but for the recording Sylvian ran out of budget and was unable to complete the album the way he envisioned it. Although Sylvian said he liked the songs on the album, he described it as a failure because the centerpiece of the album was missing.[7] The missing piece was the song “Ride“, which was later completed and finally released 2000 on the compilation album “Everything and Nothing”. Sylvian said\u00a0: “I was crushed when I wasn’t able to finish it first time around due to time and budget constraints.”[8]Sylvian spent the first couple of months of 1987 making demo tapes of songs that would draw on the subtler sides of jazz, folk and orchestral music. Recorded in just 2.5 months \u201cSecrets Of The Beehive\u201d appeared in October 1987 to universally positive reviews. The emphasis was on the lyrical content more than on the previous albums. Because the material came so easily and had a certain strength in its simplicity, it didn\u2019t require enhancing in terms of studio atmospherics and effects. Sylvian began recording the basic tracks at Chateau Miraval in the South of France because of its exotic location. David Torn, Danny Thompson, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Danny Cummings came down and built up the tracks one by one. In time they would be joined at the studio by Phil Palmer and Steve Jansen. The orchestral overdubs were recorded midway through the album, at Angel Studios and at Air in London. Sakamoto had scored the majority of the songs, except “Orpheus” and “Let the Happiness In”, were scored by arranger Brian Gascoigne. Mark Isham also recorded his parts at Angel and Air Studios. Then it was off to Wisseloord at Hilversum in the Netherlands to finish the overdubs and do the vocals. Final additions and mixing were done early summer 1987 at the Wool Hall in Bath with Steve Nye.[9][10][11]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In 2003, a remastered limited digipak version of ‘Secrets of the Beehive’ was released with the bonus track from the Japanese version ‘Promise (The Cult of Eurydice)’ replacing the original CD bonus track ‘Forbidden Colours (version)’, which was a re-recorded version of the Sakamoto\/Sylvian collaboration originally intended for Brilliant Trees, but eventually released as b-side to the Red Guitar single.
