Dark Horse Records is a record label founded by former Beatle George Harrison in 1974. The label's formation coincided with the winding down of the Beatles' Apple Records and allowed Harrison to continue supporting other artists' projects while maintaining his solo career. The initial signings were Indian musician Ravi Shankar and Splinter, the latter of whom provided the label with its only significant commercial success until Harrison himself signed with Dark Horse in 1976. The label was distributed internationally by A&M Records for the first two years of its operation. Following a highly publicised split with A&M, Harrison and Dark Horse formed a long-term partnership with Warner Bros. Records that lasted until the expiration of his contract in 1994.

Attitudes, Stairsteps and Keni Burke were among the other artists who recorded for Dark Horse, although it increasingly became a vehicle for Harrison's solo releases once Warner's had taken over distribution. After a ten-year period of inactivity, the label returned in 2002 with the posthumous release of Harrison's final studio album, Brainwashed, followed by his Dark Horse Years box set in 2004. Dark Horse Records also issued the Shankar–Harrison compilation box set Collaborations in 2010. In March 2021, the record label released Assembly, a new remastered collection of Joe Strummer's solo work. (en)

  • Dark Horse Records — лейбл звукозаписи, основанный Джорджем Харрисоном в 1974 году и прекративший своё существование после смерти музыканта в 2001 году. После окончания контракта с Parlophone и Apple Records, все синглы и альбомы Джорджа Харисона стали выходить на Dark Horse Records. Первым альбомом был Thirty Three & 1/3 (1976), а последним — вышедший посмертно в 2002 году Brainwashed. В 2004 году все альбомы Харрисона, вышедшие ранее на Dark Horse, были ремастированы и изданы в виде бокс-сета Dark Horse Years 1976-1992. Дистрибьюторами выступили три лейбла: A&M Records (1974—1976), Warner Bros. Records (1976—1992) и Parlophone (все записи, начиная с 2002 года). Dark Horse Records издавал практически исключительно только альбомы Харрисона. Однако, в период с 1974 по 1976 год, на лейбле вышли также записи Рави Шанкара, группы Джима Келтнера , дуэта , группы Five Stairsteps и её вокалиста , сольные работы (гитариста Wings и Джо Кокера) и альбом калифорнийской группы . На логотипе лейбла изображён Уччайхшравас — конь бога Индры в индуизме, который описывается как царь всех лошадей, летающий белый конь с семью головами и чёрным хвостом. Харрисон впервые увидел изображение Уччайхшраваса на коробке во время одной из своих многочисленных поездок в Индию. (ru)
