The Canadian-American roots rock group that rose to prominence in the late 1960s. Comprised of vocalists and multi-instrumentalists Rick Danko, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson, Richard Manuel, and Robbie Robertson, The Band's soulful and authentic sound captivated listeners worldwide. They were cherished for their seamless blend of rock, folk, country, and blues, showcased in hits such as "The Weight" and "Up on Cripple Creek." Their contributions to popular music also included collaborations with Bob Dylan. The Band's enduring influence is characterized by their timeless harmonies, storytelling prowess, and lasting impact on the Americana genre.

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
