 By David Edwards, Patrice Eyries, and Mike Callahan
 Last update: July 25, 2004




The Straight label was formed for productions and artists discovered by Frank Zappa. The first Straight label was gold with black print. "STRAIGHT" above the center hole in purple. This label is believed to have been used on only STS 1051. The second label was dark pink with black printing. There are seven Straight logos in white, black, orange, and yellow running down the center of the label. Promotional labels are white with black print.
