Mother Records  was a record label founded by the band U2 in 1983 and distributed by parent Island Records.  As a supportive promotional platform, the label released several one-off single releases for The Hothouse Flowers, In Tua Nua and Cactus World News among others.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
An Emotional FishAn Emotional Fish – Here is the story on this Irish band according to Allmusic; I knew nothing about them myself at the time:  “Since they come from Dublin, are righteously political and their first two singles were on U2’s Mother record label, An Emotional Fish is frequently written off as a blatant U2 imitator; and there is no denying that they owe a large debt to those Irish superstars.”
