Bio:

Early incarnation of Into Paradise. The name was a reference to Blue in Heaven, from the same suburb of Dublin. The first single was described in Hot Press as sounding like "Knocking On Heaven's Door" speeded up.

Both tracks on the Comet compilations are colled from the same demo tape. One of these tracks "There's A Mountain" won the In Dublin Best demo and best band competition in 1987. There is at least one more track on that demo, titled "Nothing Left In Life".

Rachel Tighe later in Luggage.
