Straight to the Point is the second album by jazz saxophonist Art Porter Jr., released in June 1993.

[4] Zan Stewart reviewed the album for Los Angeles Times, saying it had "solid moments... but just not enough of them.

[9] Porter's father was fighting lung cancer and was too weak to travel to the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles to record at Lorber's JHL Sound studio, but he recorded a piano part for "Autumn in Europe" in Arkansas, where he lived.

[9] Porter canceled tour dates to attend to his family and established a nonprofit group called Art Porter Sr. Music Education to provide scholarships to music students, and to honor the memory of his father.

The foundation changed its name in 2011 to Art Porter Music Education, to honor both father and son.
