Description:
In 1968 Frank Zappa set up the Bizarre and Straight labels. This film reviews the astonishing music that came out on Bizarre and Straight, and reveals the background, operations and the lives of the musicians, performers and management who made these labels the legendary reality they became. Includes rare footage, archive interviews and of course the music that made it all worthwhile.

Press:
“Ultimately, ironically, and perversely, From Bizarre to Straight strips away the commercial veneer erected even by Frank and is subversively factual, a demon's delight in a world of gushing fanboyisms.”
—Acoustic Music (.com)
“This fascinating documentary is a must-see for anyone who appreciates music history.”
—Daily News
“The whole story of Bizarre/Straight and the events of those years is pretty incredible. From Straight To Bizarre is probably something of a must for Zappa-philes, for the live footage alone. It is hard to believe that a lot of this stuff went on, but it did. The DVD is well worth checking out.”
