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

On September 20th and 21st 2019, Eric Clapton had his fifth and final Crossroads Guitar Festival in Dallas, TX. Rhino officially release the album and Eric Clapton himself has curated the tracks for his final Crossroads release. The 2019 festival featured Bill Murray as the Master of Ceremonies and included electrifying performances by a “who’s who” of legendary and revered guitarists. Performers include James Bay, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Gary Clark Jr., Shery Crow, Peter Frampton, Vince Gill, Buddy Guy, Lianne La Havas, Los Lobos, John Mayer, Bonnie Raitt, The Marcus King Band, Tedeschi Trucks Band, and many more. As with previous releases, all profits will benefit The Crossroads Centre in Antigua. The first Crossroads Benefit Concert took place in 1999 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Crossroads Guitar Festival made its debut in 2004 at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.
