Merciful Release is a record label of sorts. No one say "vanity publishing". Kinda worked out well, though.

Unrelated Releases

Number: Date: Group: Title: Type: comments:
MR1 1980 The Impossible Dreamers Books EP The debut single/EP of The Impossible Dreamers.

A whole page dedicated to this 7" vinyl record including track list, producers and miscellaneous can be found here

MR2 1980 The Syndromes vs The Merciful Release All-Stars Featuring The Impossible Dreamers Ready In The Rhythm Section LP Appears to be unrelated to the Sisters, except for the fact that the label name is the same. Certainly there is no pentagram-and-head logo. Contact address for the label was 78 Sussex Sq, London W2. Groove inscriptions "A porky prime cut", "For swinging potatoes", "Half baked pop music".
