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

The Pogues were an Irish-British Celtic punk/folk band, active since the early 1980s. Originally known as "Pogue Mahone" (meaning "kiss my arse" in Gaelic), they gained popularity with their unique blend of traditional Irish music and punk rock influences.
After a successful run, the band split in the mid-1990s but later reunited in 2001. Despite their ups and downs, The Pogues left an indelible mark on the music scene with their raw energy and rebellious spirit.
Led by frontman Shane MacGowan, The Pogues captivated audiences with their heartfelt lyrics and distinctive sound. Their final show took place in August 2014, marking the end of an era for this iconic group.
