The Shout Factory vintage and retro movies memorabilia and more merchandise store
Part of The Shout! Factory are refugees from the Rhino Records label, where they managed to unleash an ungodly number of music compilations, retro-TV re-issues and a few movies of dubious distinction on an unsuspecting public. They credit Harold Bronson, Gary Stewart, Bob Emmer and several others with the bulk of the credit. Bob was Rhino’s head of Business Affairs and the man responsible for putting Rhino together with Atlantic in 1992.
The founders maintained relationships with with PBS and star producer TJ Lubinsky, and have released numerous DVDs and audio box sets from multi-artist music specials including Superstars Of ’70s Soul, Magic Moments and Disco Explosion, to name a few.
In 2004 they released the amazing TV show Freaks And Geeks, packed with an absurd amount of bonus content and commentaries, and did the same with the infamous Canadian sketch comedy show, SCTV. Both of these legendary shows had not made it to video or DVD because of complex music rights issues that The Shout Factory was able to navigate through.
On the music side, they nabbed rights to the Marshall Tucker Band catalog and began an extensive and very successful reissue program. The Shout Factory also released a Grammy-nominated Lenny Bruce box set, as well as a New Orleans box. They also worked with William Shatner and Ben Folds on their collaboration album.
In 2005, they began a relationship with Dick Cavett, beginning with a three DVD set called Rock Icons, and also released films with groundbreaking rock bands, including The Sex Pistols’ Great Rock’n'Roll Swindle and a documentary on the amazing Flaming Lips – Fearless Freaks.
On the music side, they worked with Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss to reissue the Tijuana Brass catalog, starting with Lost Treasures and then deluxe versions of each of the classic albums. The Shout Factory then produced a new album with the legendary Solomon Burke, which was produced by Don Was, which was nominated for a Grammy. We also put out a boxed set of baseball moments, music and related audio recordings, The Baseball Box, packaged to look like a base.
