A C T A RECORDS USA
***************
The Acta label was started by Kenny Meyers as a division of DOT Records , established
primarily as an outlet for the new psychedelic rock that was becoming popular in the
1967-1968 period . Acta was apparently not recording material on their own , but rather
licensing masters from independent producers . The two main sources for material for
Acta were Bill Traut of Dunwich in Chicago , who produced the American Breed and
Golden State Recorders in San Francisco , where the Other Half And Neighb'rhood
Childr'n recordings originated . The first single for the label was "Flight Of The
Dragon Lady / Wonderful Day" (Acta 801) by the Other Half.
The Acta label was yellow with black printing - "acta" was vertical to the left of
the center hole.
