The Frogs is a self-titled debut album by The Frogs. It was originally released in limited quantities (only 1010 copies on black vinyl),] [http://www.thefuton.com/frogs/discog.txt] and was re-released on CD by Moikai Records in 1999. [http://www.dragcity.com/catalog/records/m3.html] The album was recorded on 8-Track at Pearl Studios in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and it took a long time to record because of the engineer's limited availability. After this album, The Frogs would release recordings made at home. This debut album gave listeners only a mere taste of the demented humor that was to follow on their second album.
