Notes

The title of group comes from James Joyce. A quote is supplied in the CD booklet;

Riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from suerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.
The album is described in the booklet;
This duo project is something like a toy room where we can meet old friends and play music inspired by the forgotten records we love.
The CD booklet includes the lyrics for Stella Blue in Italian and English. The song is sung in English.

This album is probably no longer available. The address given on the back of the CD for the record label is;

BLU BUS
