Merciful Release All Stars

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I believe the Merciful Release All-stars 12" had MR2 as catalogue number, I must have a picture of the 12" somewhere (?) will try to dig it up ...

Oh, and add La Costa Rasa - Autopilot MREL001 to the list ...

As noted in the links posted by lazarus corporation, I can hunt down my copy of the MR release of Scoda Blush is anyone wants that number. Did they have just one release?

Oooo, don't get me started on La Costa Rasa. Don't know which were more annoying... the band or Andie Mills dancing to his own songs down T'Phono.

(Please QB, don't tell me he still does that :D )

:lol: The only reason he got his band onto Merciful Release IMnsHO.

By the way, anyone know what he's up to these days? There was a guy working behind the bar in The Wardrobe in Leeds a few weeks back who looked suspiciously familiar...

Clicky

He's in this picture, the guy with the short black hair. Geocities won't allow hotlinking of pictures though.
