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

Founding members Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen started Hot Tuna as a side project of Jefferson Airplane in 1969. The band initially formed when Grace Slick was recovering from throat node surgery, leaving her unable to perform. Alongside harmonica player Willow Scarlett, they began performing together. Eventually, Paul Kantner and drummer Joey Covington joined for early performances.
In the 1970s, Hot Tuna transitioned into a full-time band with a more rock-oriented style. They welcomed fiddler Papa John Creach and drummer Sammy Piazza for their second LP. Later on, the band transformed into a power trio with Bob Steeler taking over on drums.
With influences ranging from New Riders of the Purple Sage to Stephen Stills, Hot Tuna has carved out their own unique sound within the music industry. Their rich history and evolution make them an essential part of any music collection.

Celebrating 50 years of their debut studio album. Featuring: Jack Casady, Jorma Kaukonen, Papa John Creach, Sammy Piazza. Includes: 'Water' and 'Highway Song' featuring David Crosby.
