Original soundtrack for the 1988 film The Courier, which starred Cait O'Riordan. Elvis provides eight instrumental tracks under the name Declan MacManus — his first releases of this type, which led to other soundtracks, GBH and Jake's Progress.
The album also features tracks by U2, Hothouse Flowers, and other less well known artists.

Notes
- Side 2 contains orchestral music composed by EC.
- The version of "Last Boat Leaving" that appears during the end titles in the film is a different version to what is on the LP/CD, and it is different again to the version on Spike.
- The list of artists shown on one version of the album cover includes The Pogues, but there is no music by the band on the soundtrack.
