Band of Georges: Frog

Frog by George. From Volume II Side A of the Band of Georges. Composed circa 8th November 1982. Music by G. Davies/S. Miller. Accidental lyrics by M. Drower/P. Rippin. Frog noises by M. Greatorex. Recorded May 1986. Mixed October 1986. Lifted from cassette March 2025. Copyright © 1982 Explicit Music. Copyright ℗ 2025 Wud Records. Fun Facts: Frog is a fun instrumental in the key of G major. The idea for the frog noises came from Marc. Simon composed the lead guitar part. During a jam of this song in what were then the 'new' school music rooms, Pete Rippin handed Mark Drower a cigarette he had just rolled. Perfectly timed in a gap between a 'verse' and a 'chorus', the tape machine picked up Mark's "Mmmm, thanks!" That particular exclamation remained a part of Frog ever after. Frog was later performed live a great many times by Rough Terrain. It is the second track on Rough Terrain's Howell Road Demo, and their Exit Stage Deaf compilation.
