Rak Records is a British record label, founded by record producer Mickie Most in 1969. Rak was home to artists such as Herman's Hermits, Suzi Quatro, Mud, Kenny, Hot Chocolate, Smokie, Arrows, Span, Racey and Kim Wilde. Rak Records were distributed via a licensing deal with EMI Records, which bought the company and its master recordings from Most in 1983. Most kept the company name and his RAK Studios, which still exists in St. John's Wood along with Rak Publishing. The latter company represents artists such as Joan Jett, Ben Taylor and KK. In 1986, Most defected the label from EMI to PRT Records which handled the last releases until February 1988. Owing to the records not being hits, the label folded. However, 26 years later in late 2014, Rak Records was revived as a label for new artists

  • RAK Records is een Brits platenlabel dat in 1969 werd opgericht door producer, zanger en talent scout Mickie Most. Het label bracht muziek uit van bekende artiesten als Herman's Hermits, Suzi Quatro, Mud, Hot Chocolate, Smokie en Kim Wilde en was succesvol tussen 1970 en 1983. Hoewel de naam van het label vaak met hoofdletters wordt geschreven (RAK) is het geen afkorting, maar een bewerking van de Amerikaanse term rackjobbing, die de verkoop van platen op ongebruikelijke plekken (b.v. supermarkten of benzinestations) aanduidt.
