Studio Tan

Studio Tan is an album by Frank Zappa, first released in September 1978 on his own DiscReet Records label. It reached #147 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. The album's creation was spurred by Warner Bros.' rejection of Zappa's Läther album. After demanding more albums than Zappa was contractually obliged to provide and reediting the live album Zappa in New York, a lawsuit ensued, during which, Studio Tan, Sleep Dirt and Orchestral Favorites were issued without Zappa's permission. Studio Tan is derived from two complete sides of Läther. After Zappa gained the rights to his back catalog, Studio Tan was reissued, containing a remixed version of "The Adventures of Greggery Peccary".
