Rhino Records, also known as Rhino, is a renowned music label that was established in 1973 by Richard Foos. Starting as a record store in Westwood California, Rhino quickly gained recognition with its first successful release "Go To Rhino Records" by Wild Man Fischer in 1975. The label's early logo featured "Rocky the Rhino" and focused on novelty, surf, local new wave bands, and reissues of out-of-print records from other labels.

Under the guidance of Bill Inglot for production, Ken Perry for mastering, and A&R team Gary Stewart and James Austin, Rhino expanded its catalog to include a wide range of reissues by the mid-1980s. The label underwent a logo redesign during this time period to simply "Rhino". In 1984, Rhino released its first CD and became known for manufacturing high-quality CDs made by Sanyo (1984-85) and various manufacturers from Japan or Switzerland thereafter.

In 1985, Rhino entered into a distribution deal with Capitol Records which lasted until 1992. This partnership allowed access to Capitol's back catalog and led to the release of reissues of old Capitol albums. Additionally, EMI and Rhino acquired the Roulette family of labels in 1989. As their deal with Capitol came to an end in 1992, Time-Warner offered an opportunity for growth. Half of the label was sold to Time-Warner

In the 1950s, Bacharach found success as a songwriter whilst teaming up with lyricist Hal David to write hits such as 'I Say a Little Prayer', 'Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head' and 'Magic Moments'. During a career spanning over 60 years, Bacharach has written a Broadway musical, worked on movie scores and has received three Academy Awards and six Grammys for his work. 'Magic Moments: The Definitive Burt Bacharach Collection' houses 75 original tracks, written by one of the most loved and successful songwriters of all time. Featuring artists such as Cilla Black, Aretha Franklin and Cliff Richard singing his numbers, this 3CD collection boasts all the hits from his almost fathomless catalogue. This version of the album contains 2 track changes with Dionne Warwick - This Girl's In Love With You and Michele Lee - Knowing When To Leave replacing Herb Alpert version of This Girls In Love With You and Casino Royal.
