Mercy is a 1987 hard rock album by Steve Jones. It was the first solo album from Jones, a former member of the Sex Pistols. The single 'Mercy' was used in a Miami Vice episode called 'Stone's War' and was also featured on the Miami Vice II soundtrack album. The song 'With You or Without You' was used in, and is on the soundtrack for, Jonathan Demme's 1986 film Something Wild. 'Raining in My Heart' was originally recorded as 'When Dreaming Fails', a 1985 demo with Iggy Pop which they recorded at Olivier Ferrand's home studio in Hancock Park, Los Angeles. Jones added new lyrics.

Reception[edit]
Critic Ira Robbins notes that original punk rocker Jones 'caught followers off guard' with this release.[3] Unexpectedly, the album 'allows low-key, sentimental moments – like the title track, the hopelessly sappy 'Love Letters' and others – to mingle with the rock numbers'.[3]
