The Courier, 1988

This page is incomplete.

This is the original soundtrack for the movie The Courier, which starred EC's then wife Cait O'Riordan.

EC provides 8 instrumental tracks, under the name Declan MacManus - his first releases of this type, which have led to other soundtracks, GBH and Jake's Progress, and later to his first full classical work Il Sogno.

The album also features tracks by U2, Hothouse Flowers, and other less well known artists.
