Red Eye Records (label)

Red Eye Records

Red Eye Records was an independent record label started in 1985.[1] It had two sub-labels Black Eye Records and Third Eye.[2] In 1990 the label was distributed through Polydor, which later acquired Red Eye, closing it as an imprint and moving some acts across to Universal.

During the 1980s it was managed by John Foy.[3] According to Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, "Sadly, as alternative became mainstream, one-time leaders in the field like Red Eye, Volition and Dogmeat shut down operations in 1996."[4]
